Look what my friend Green Girl in Wisconsin gave me (that lovable galoshes-wearing gardener!) I'm so grateful to have her as a friend and to read her writing. She brings out my inner Cheese-head. :)
Now, it's time to pass along the fun. Here are the rules:
1.) Thank and post URL to the blog that gave the award. (Check!)
2.) Pass the award along to 6 brilliantly over the top blogs. Alert them so they know to receive the award. (Check!)
I'll pass this along to some of my favorites:

Leighann at Multi-Minding Mom, the greenest of my greenie girlfriends and a terrific blogger. [LeighannMMM on Twitter]
Stacey (Mom24) at 4everMom, a fantastically frugal meal-planning mom, whose life is so full, it's hard to keep up! [Mom24 on BlogCatalog]
Lesley at My Turn to Talk, a new friend I'm so glad to have. [Latest post, which I love, Blink.]
And
Susan at Erasing the Bored, a talented writer with a positive perspective on life. [Another latest post I love, Do Be a Do-Be]

Thank you. You're too kind. Made my day though. :-)
ReplyDeleteJulia, Thank you for including me in your list of favorite blogs - I will add this award to my blog with pride.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much!! I'm happy to know you too. It's amazing how many new friendships I have enjoyed through blogging. I never expected that.
ReplyDeleteHi You Sweetie! Thank you for this ultimate compliment! Like Lesley, it's been a fabulous experience making friends thru blogging because I never expected this bonus side of it!
ReplyDeleteI sent you an email a while ago that I'm thinking you didn't get? It was regarding your writing for Blog Catalog. The link thru your profile to supposedly email is what I used. Could you send me an email to joyisours@sbcglobal.net so I can re-send it? Thanks!
Hugs

You deserve this award.
ReplyDeleteLady bugs? Really? I've trained my kids to view the buggers as the enemy.
