I am thrilled to announce that I have been gifted the Verstatile Blogger Award by my blogging friend Tandy who writes the lovely Lavender and Lime blog; Tandy has weekly challenges which are great fun. I was also gifted the award by my new blogging friend Tanya over at Chica Andaluza. Tanya recently started writing about her wonderful life in Spain and her apt tag line is “Living the Dream Up A Mountain Somewhere In Andalucia”. Thanks ladies!
In acceptance of the award, the rules are:
- to thank the person / people who awarded you by linking back to their post
- to list 7 interesting things about yourself
- to pass the award on to 15 other new or newly discovered blogs
My 7 interesting facts:
- I recently learnt from doing a challenge on Tandy’s blog that I would not eat roadkill.
- I probably drink too many cups of tea in a day, especially in winter.
- One of the first things I do when visiting family or friends, is look in their fridge.
- I love sharing motivational quotes.
- I have the strangest idiosyncrasy of having to smell everything.
- I bake cupcakes / muffins every week – sweet and savoury.
- If I could magically play an instrument, it would be the violin.
I haven’t discovered 15 new blogs of late, I have however found 7. I am pleased to pass this award onto:
The Complete Book 
Congrats! 🙂 I liked reading about you!!
Thanks Kim. Hope you are having a good week. 🙂 xo
thanks for sharing! I also smell things 🙂
I knew it was normal. 😀
Congrats 🙂
Re #3, don’t they get cross when you look in their fridge?
Not yet. 🙂
Congratulations and it was lovely to learn more about you!
Thanks again. It is fun learning more about each other – things we may not ordinarily share. 🙂
Thank you so much Mandy!!
You are very welcome. 🙂
OK, you did that list super fast! Congrats on the award, truly deserved. Can’t wait to check out your list. Are you sure about the roadkill, I have a book I could mail you….
Thanks very much Greg. Not sure what I would put if I had to think about it too long. 😉
Hmm, think I am positive about the roadkill, then again, my arm could be twisted if your book has anything appetising enough. 🙂
Thank you so much for the award! We all truly appreciate it. 🙂 I’m with you on the roadkill! And really, I don’t think you can have too much tea. 😉
You’re welcome. 😉 Yay, another tea lover. 🙂
