Blazin Brittle

I’m nominating my wife, Marie-Clare Prisco.  Maybe you automatically toss out spousal nominations.  Go ahead.  But thanks for the opportunity to stop a moment and write about her anyway.  Marie-Clare has been trying to find a way into her own life for many years.  She’s worked for Caterpillar, Abbott Labs, and American Hospital Association as a corporate communicator.  She’s also been a high school teacher and a project manager.  She’s telecommuted for a national conference A\V firm; she’s been a corporate trainer for Toyota.  Everything has come up short of her passion.  She’s now working hard to blaze her own path with an artisan pecan candy she calls Blazin Brittle, a spicey brittle she thinks perfect for the Texas tongue.  She’s been blogging about her adventures at www.blazinbrittle.com.  And here’s a photo of her in San Angelo with her booth set up at The Chicken Farm Art Center’s 1st Saturday Sale: http://www.flickr.com/photos/lemusgro/4758513719/

I nominate her.  But more than anything, you should get to know her.  It ain’t that far from Alpine.
