Blog Award

First I want to say thank you to Nanny Dee at New England Nanny for bestowing the Friends award on me at a time when I really needed it. She didn’t know that things were chaotic at my house at that time and this was the push I needed to continue the blog.

I didn’t realize how difficult it was to choose the bloggers to forward the award to until I received one myself. It was much more difficult to decide whom to send the award to than it is to write a post each day.

Here are the rules of this award:

This award is bestowed on to blogs that are exceedingly charming.

These kind bloggers aim to find and be friends.
They are not interested in self-aggrandizement.
Our hope is that when the ribbons of these prizes are cut, even more friendships are propagated.
Please give more attention to these writers.
Deliver this award to six bloggers who must choose six more and include this cleverly written text into the body of their award.
I will pass this award to some of my bloggy friends that I find exceedingly charming...

Rose at Dandelion for her great recipes, gardening tips and for her blog friendship. I look forward to reading your posts and comments each day. You are quickly becoming my blog sister on the West Coast.

Debra at Vegan Family Style for all the great raw information and recipes she provides. You have encouraged me to eat more raw food and I know that is a good thing. Thank you for the encouragement, support and answers to all my basic raw questions.

Janet at Meatless Mama, my cancer warrior in arms. We share a connection that no one should have. I appreciate the great information you share and you inspire me to be better with each post.

Oraphan at Easy Veggie. You are so quick with a compliment and know how to make me feel welcome in the vegan community. Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts and ideas.

Janelle at Adventures in a Vegetarian Kitchen. I enjoy reading about all your projects, your husband, baby to be and the pugs. Your warmth and sincerity come through in every post you write. You are going to be a great mom.

Jeni at Heathen Vegan. I love reading your blog and seeing your creativity. Your posts always make me smile, and wish I was a little younger and going to pub with you. I know your sense of humor brings a smile to many of us.

There are so many bloggers that I could have included but six was the limit. I appreciate all of you and enjoy reading your posts and comments. When I started the blog my intention was to share recipes and not much more. Over time I have realized the blog has become so much more than recipes alone. Thank you all for making the blogosphere such a warm place to be.

If you haven’t taken the time to visit these blogs please do. Each of these ladies have put a lot of time, effort and heart into their respective blogs that I hope everyone will take the time to visit and comment. For those of you that don’t have blogs it takes a lot of time to put together a good post and we don’t know you are reading and like what we have to say unless you comment. Even just a few words to let us all know you are there would be appreciated.

Thank you again Nanny Dee for sending me this award at exactly the right time. Your timing is impeccable.
