One Lovely Blog Award

Thank you Cristy at Searching For O ur Silver Lining for this award of which I will gladly share with other bloggers.

Here are the guidelines:
  • Share who gave you the award with a link back to their blog.
  • Write down 7 random facts about yourself.
  • Give the award to 15 other bloggers.
  • Let them know they've won and pop the award up on your blog.
Now for the facts:
1)  I have dimples on my face, three as a matter of fact.  One in each cheek and one in my chin.

2)  I try to live a green life as much as possible by planting a garden each year.  I don't use pesticides so well my veggies often get eaten by creatures other than myself.

3)  I don't have a cell phone. Gasp!  That's right folks.  If someone needs to contact me they can hunt me down.

4)  I read on average a book a week.  Way more fun than watching television.

5)  I'm still greiving the loss of my cat, Jasper.  I feel like its my fault he disappeared.  Probably the very reason why I don't have a pet right now.

6)  I miss life on the East coast.  Don't get me wrong living on the West coast for the past 4 years has been nice but I miss lightening bugs, thunderstorms with lightening where the electricity goes out and the sky is very black.  I miss all the foods that I could find in NY like good Chinese, real Jewish bagels, and authentic German food.

7)  I love doing charity work.  It just makes me feel good to help out someone else.  However, I'm not as able-bodied as I once was so the majority of my charity work is down to crafting these days.

Now for the hard part;  I need to try to find 15 bloggers that haven't been awarded yet.  Not easy.

I realize some of you might have already been given this award but I can't remember who so please bear with me.

    1. Well much as I'd love to have Jasper back, he disappeared in Oct of 2004. He was eleven and a black cat. I think it was probably foul play. Yeah I know I should get over it but he was my baby and I took him every where, including bringing him overseas with me.

    1. No cell phone for me. I only have one when J is deployed and it belongs to him. I just keep it activated while he is gone. Really a cell phone is just another leash to me and when I want to be on vacation I don't want electronic distractions.

  4. Thanks! Will work on my post/facts. I hear you re: authentic ethnic food. We are solely lacking in that here in CO.

    1. Its terrible how much I crave the food I could get on the East Coast. Here, well I must be going to the wrong restaurants because it just isn't all that good.
