And the award goes to…


My cool new blogging buddy, Bunnygirl (a very talented writer…check out her stuff), recently gave me this cool award. It’s my first one ever, so I’m pretty psyched. Now I have to be a good girl and do the following:

1) Put the logo on my blog.
2) Add a link to the person who awarded me.
3) Nominate 7 other blogs.
4) Add links to those blogs on mine.
5) Leave a message for my nominees on their blogs.

Numbers one and two are no-brainers. The logo is rad-looking, and Bunnygirl’s blog was already linked here. But choosing seven blogs out of the rest of my blogroll…not so easy. I only list those blogs I love and visit regularly. So after much consideration, here they are (and please don’t be offended if yours isn’t listed):

1. A Trillion Kisses, maintained by a cool Austrailian lady who thinks we look alike. Since she’s wicked pretty, that made me very happy.

2. Barefoot Adult, the funny and touching chronicles of a wife/mother/writer as she balances all that she and life have put on her plate.

3. Blogfish, my buddy Elle’s blog. She’s the kindest, coolest person I know (at least among those people I know whom I’ve never met) and she’s really handy with a toothbrush.

4. Kit Courteney. She’s British (and I love just about every dialect they’ve got), she’s got a cat who thinks she’s a dog (just like mine), and she’s a great writer.

5. Blog Ing, because it’s through him that I found the Word Count Union.

6. Papayas and Peas. I’m not a vegan, and I don’t play one on TV, but Jen–a wicked cool chick who, with her equally cool hubby, also lives in Maine–has recipes there that make me think it wouldn’t be a bad thing to become one. If only chicken was a vegetable…

7. Zoe Winters, the revolutionary. Viva La Resistance!

Here’s a link to your award. Pass it on if you feel so inclined.

  2. Oh my word… how cool are you, little miss award-giver?!!!!

    Seriously, coming from you, this makes me all starry and speechless (doesn’t happen very often).

    I’ve had a ‘congratulatory’ drink or 4 (I’m easily pleased) so I’m struggling a bit with what to do next… there are points to follow… I’m trying but they are merging into one… will try and follow just to make someone else feel like this!!!!!!

    I hate to burst your bubble… but dialect-wise I’m very dull. Nothing very grand or exciting… more of a bored Kate Winslet (but 5 years older!).

    I’ll have to come down off my cloud… I’ll bring my glass :0)

  3. Wow! Thanks for the award. After taking a look at the rest of the blogs in your list, I’m not sure I belong…I’ll have to go to my blog RIGHT NOW (before lunch break is over) and write something interesting. 🙂

  4. R.J.,

    I like your choices, but I’ve got to give a shout out to Blog Ing, since he was the only male to make your list. Congrats Ing.

    I have to admit that you come up with some great ideas for your posts, R.J.

  5. Zoe & KC, you're very welcome. Well deserved.

    Ing, you most certainly belong. You've always got the goods on your blog.

    Hey Stonewriter!

    Yes, I really do need to give a shoutout to the guy-written blogs on my blog roll. Actually, all of them are good reads. I'd love to do mini reviews of all of them, and I might if I get a chance.
