Showered with Love

Oh my! I am so blessed.  I've been bestowed  with not one, but TWO more blogging awards.  Thank you, thank you! I am truly honored.












I'm not certain what the rules for winning the Blogger on Fire award are, but I do know the rules for the Versatile Blogger Award.  So.... I think I will just sort of make up my own rules (I know, so what's new?) It's good to be a rebel.


Here are the rules for the Versatile Blogger Award

1) Thank the blogger who awarded you and link back to them.

2)  Share 7 things about yourself.

3) Pass the award along to 15 other newly discovered blogs.

I will do the first two and part of the second. I like the number seven, and since rule #2  has a seven in it, I'll change rule number 3 and pass the award on to 7 newly discovered blogs. Is that confusing? :-)

The woman I get to thank for these illustrious awards is um..... um... I haven't got a clue!  And don't you love a good mystery? Her blog is called Mommy Bags and it's one of my favorites. She writes about first time parenthood and anything else that pops into her head. She's a straight-shooter who tells it like it is. My kind of woman! A popular feature of hers is WTF Friday, which will have you laughing out loud for sure. Don't miss it!


Seven things about me that I'm sure you are just dying to know.

1. I am Italian and my maiden name is Pedone. 

2. I am very short (barely 5 ft. 1") and petite.

3. I love animals but am especially fond of cats. Love their independence! 

4. I love to sing and play guitar and am in a little folk-ish band called Vocal Karma. We may change the name but I don't want to. Just sayin'.

5. I am a military brat. Some people might remove the word military from that sentence.

6. I love baseball and  enjoy score keeping. I teach a score keeping class for Little League. I know...this surprises even me. 

7. I love to bake! Shameless plug for my recipe blog The Big Green Bowl.



Now for the good part.  Here are the 7 blogs that are so deserving of these two awards. I hope you will pay them a visit!!
A Memorable Time of My Life 
Books and Bowel Movements
Crazy Lady with a Pen
  Of Woods and Words
  Ramblings of a Diva
Scribble Flowers
  The Neurosis Files


Congratulations!!

  2. Congratulations Michael Ann! I didn't know you were Italian either.
    Sorry if I've missed any of your posts, my computer has been giving me grief (again). I'm hoping and praying it lasts a while longer! Congrats again on the Awards!

  3. Thank you so much fpor the award Michael Ann! Scribbleflowers definitely qualifies as a newly discovered blog - I just discovered it myself. I will need to think for a day or a few about the 7 new blogs to pass it on to. There are so many! By the way, have you checked out Bloggymoms.com? If not you might want to take a look - it's another great blogging community.

  13. Well, here's one more, Michael Ann.

    I was surprised this morning to see that I had been nominated by Juliet Greenwood for a Lieber Award. I had no idea what that meant, but it seems if you're nominated, you've already won!

    The idea is to recognize notable blogs, raise their visibility and spread the love from blogger to blogger.

    So, your blog is one of my nominees. If you choose to accept this award, check out my latest post: http://keepingsane.com/

    Thanks!
