That much awesomeness on one blog should be illegal.

It is exciting, but I'm also quite nervous about it. Still trying to come up with 2 fun themes and I just know I'll be pulling all-nighters two nights in a row. (Based on my experience from hosting the Finance Fiesta last month - Finance Fiesta No. 3: The Spanish Money Proverbs Edition, which is still a new carnival and had fewer submissions.)

Ha! My mother always uses Spanish proverbs in her conversations---The problem is I can only remember them when the occasion suits their usage. My husband and I just had a conversation in the car where I tried to translate a Spanish proverb that came to mind when we were returning from the movie theatre and he asked why I pulled my hair back into a ponytail (when I had it down the entire evening.) I thought he sounded annoyed so the thought that came to mind was "hasta lo que no comes, te hace dano"
I tried to translate it as meaning "even what you don't eat makes you ill."
My husband replied, "In the East Coast we have a saying just like that it's called 'whaat's it to ya' ".

I managed to get myself in the same sort of pickle for the second week of September, when I will be hosting the Carnival of family life and the Festival of Frugality back to back.

I still think I'm insane. Courage to you!

Thanks! Well, the carnivals are both up and so am I (upright, I mean). It was quite a bit of work, but it has been fun and we had a lot of really good entries, especially for the Festival of Frugality. My favorite part of hosting is picking and doing the themes. I've already got ideas for future themes and can't wait to do them.

Please stop by for some great recommended reading!

Festival of Frugality No. 139: The Michael Phelps Edition

Money Hacks Carnival No. 26: Old Money Edition

Good luck and have fun next month, AlmostFrugal!
