I am so flattered! My dear blogging friend Deb at Nourish the Soul has given me a delicious award which I must share with you! I hope Deb will forgive me but at the moment I simply can't choose 10 blogs to bequeath the honor to right now! I love you all, and I visit your blogs frequently, you all contribute so much to my life.. I hope you'll understand if I simply pour a cool glass of lemonade for all of you on my blog roll, perhaps a Lemon Drop shot for those who imbide, and toast to Life - the sweet, the sour, and everything in between!

Thank you, Deb.

Sunday Surprise

I started my morning with a luscious cup of Godiva Creme Brulee coffee poolside, scanning the Sunday paper and enjoying the first light of day. Beren then made me a tasty breakfast and I meandered over here to Blogland for a visit before I continue on with my day.



Imagine my surprise and delight when I found this wonderful surprise on Deb's blog; it seems that she has awarded me with a Million Dollar Friend Award! How absolutely lovely, a perfect addition to an already-fabulous Sunday morning! Thank you, Deb, I am truly honored! (And, yes, Nourish the Soul is one of my favorite blogs, I am indeed a devoted follower).

So, here goes: the rules are as follows:

1. Only five people allowed.

2. Four have to be dedicated followers of your blog.

3. One has to be someone new or recently new to your blog and live in another part of the world.

4. You must link back to whoever gave you the award.

Yikes! Well, after much thought, here are my choices:

*Aisling at the Quiet Country House is a long-time cyber friend & a dedicated follower of my blog! The pictures of her beautiful country home never cease to take my breath away, she's as talented with the camera as she is in the kitchen.

*Jen at Lords of the Manor is a delightful writer who writes such interesting posts whether they be amusing family anecdotes or serious thought-provoking discussions.

*Kim at Midwest Musings has such an eclectic blog, I just love stopping by there for snippets about life, craft, and magick!

*Susan at Optimistic Voices is a friend I am honored to have in "real life" as well as here in cybersphere. Her impeccably-written blog is filled to the brink with words, music, life - just like the author herself!

And last but certainly not least, Helena at Hot Mama II keeps me coming back for more, more, more of her sexy & delicious stories! She meets the criteria for the "different part of the world" selection as well.


Whew, there you go! Now, back to my Sunday musings..thanks again, Deb, for the lovely award!

Nice Matters


I am so touched & honored to learn that my wonderful new blogger friend, Laura Stamps, just gifted me with the Nice Matters Award! Isn't that so sweet of her?! I researched and found this about the award:

"This award is for those bloggers who are nice people; good blog friends and those who inspire good feelings and inspiration. Also for those who are a positive influence on our blogging world. Once you've been awarded please pass it on to others who you feel are deserving of this award."


What a lovely thing to say about me. Thank you so much, Laura! Now it's my turn to recognize the "nice people" in my world. There are so many wonderful blogging friends out there, it is difficult to pick just a few but I'll give it my best shot!

Aisling from The Quiet Country House
Julie at Equus Villa
Kim at Daisy Cottage
JoJo at Are We There Yet?
Rose at Rose Cottage Lane
Nan at Letters from a Hill Farm
and last but certainly not least, The Domestic Minx.
