My First Award !!!

I am both thrilled and humbled to have received my first award, especially since it was from Denalee at Silver Strands. If you have not stopped by for a visit at Silver Strands – you are missing one of the most inspirational, warm, love filled Blogs. Danlea is truly a very caring, supportive, giving person. I’m honoured each time I see a comment from her on one of my posts, with all she is facing, she takes the time to encourage others to not give up!


The rules of the award are; the recipient list 7 facts about herself:

7 – things about me:

1) City girl living the country life (totally Green Acres)

2) My ideal afternoon with girlfriends – sitting back over tea - with sweets, savories and a little bubbly

3) I enjoy watching period movies

4) My new hobby is scrapbooking

5) I find comfort in gardening – peony and white lilies are my favourite

6) Summer and fall are my favourite seasons

7) I sometimes put cayenne pepper in my hot chocolat

Then pass the award on...

These blogs certainly are versatile - the authors cover life and all its little bits.. I present to you ... 
The next recipients of the Versatile Award:

The Life of a Suburban Princess

Getting Fit and Loving It

Confessions of a Mother, Lawyer & Crazy Woman

    Well, you're totally deserving of the award my friend! And thank you for all of your kind words. I loved reading your 7 things: especially the cayenne pepper ... never tried it, but I LOVE hot chocolate. So as soon as the temp drops below 100 here, I know what I'm headed for :)
    Have a great weekend.

    Congrats on your award! Number 2 and 4 I can relate to, but cayenne pepper?! I have to try it out!! (I thought putting rum in hot chocolate was bold)

    Firstly, congrats on your first award. You totally deserve it! You never fail to inspire me. Your challenges put my life totally in perspective for me whenever I get feeling a little "poor me" I'm facing challenges. Yeah, right.
    Secondly, thank you so much for passing the award to me. I will publish later on my site. I am truly honoured and I hope to continue to inspire you as much as you inspire me.

    Hi there - Congrats! Just scanning through your posts and saw you passed the award on to me. (D at Silver Strands also did last week too, I am slow on the uptake around here sometimes!) Thank you so much for the shout-out and the vote of confidence.

    Just posted my seven things this afternoon. Fun. Will add your blog to the post as well!

    And, I must say, you have good taste in flowers, peonies are my favorite too!

    Thanks for thinking of me!!!!

    - J
