I got some more awards this week! I love getting awards -- it gives me one more reason to have a celebratory glass of wine. (I should interject that I'm not an alcoholic, by UK standards. I need to have a least a bottle night to even get close to that.)
First up, the lovely Tara at Feel of Something New has awarded me the Soulmates award. Rules are simple: Five Recipients. Make up something (not too mean) about the people you give the award to. Link to the people you give it to. Link back to the original award post here.
And this goes out to:
B. Miller, who scaled Mt Everest last year wearing a strapless cocktail dress. Well done!
Jen at Unedited, who recently tamed and trained an anteater to clean her flat.
Nicole at One Significant Moment at a Time, who won first place in the skeleton bobsled at the Vancouver Olympics and is now skeleton bobsledding down the Matterhorn.
Joanne, who has sampled lattes in every city around the world but prefers herbal tea.

Tahereh, who is secretly an heiress living in a castle in the Scilly Isles wearing lots and lots o' plaid.
I've also received the Prolific Blogger Award from Jen and B Miller. Thanks so much, ladies! Here's where I need a little bit of award etiquette help. If I've received this before, do I pass it on to seven new people again? I'd love to, just not sure what (or if) there's an 'etiquette' for this.
Help! :)
Congratulations!!! Well deserved.
ReplyDeleteBeats me. I've probably broken a lot of award rules, I'm sure.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations!
Thanks, you two! Hope you both have a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteI think you passed it on once and that's enough. If you fancy plugging some more blogs, though, it's a good excuse :)
ReplyDeleteI don't think blog award etiquette is especially fixed though so I think you'll get away with whatever you decide!
Hi
ReplyDeleteNothing like a good glass of wine on a Saturday is what I say! Esp with Chopin in the background!
:-)
I'm virtually dribbling at your toasted sourdough bread and melty butter, yum, yum, yum!
Congratulations with your fab awards!! I like the thought of the secret heiress in Scilly wearing lots and lots o plaid!
Take care

Congrats! That soulmate one is so fun!
ReplyDeleteTHat's great! It's nice to place these awards on your website.
ReplyDeleteann
Congrats on your awards!
ReplyDeleteCongrats - great stories for your soulmates!
ReplyDeleteYou had me at toasted sourdough bread with gobs of butter. Dang, now I'm hungry.
ReplyDeleteI don't think there is an etiquette rule. It's up to you. You can pass it on to others, or just say thank you ever so much for the award, then keep it under your pillow for sweet dreams.

LOL! Few people know that I got interested in skeleton because the competition outfit was so flattering. I love the look so much I'm wearing mine right now. :D
ReplyDeleteFunny thing: I was visiting you this morning to tell you I left an award for you on my blog! Awwww! I love that we were thinking of each other today :))
Thanks!
Just found your blog through Caldonia Lass's blog. Thought I'd pop in and say hello. Looks like a nice friendly place. :-)
ReplyDeleteCongrats!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks everyone! In case you're wondering, I've progressed from the sourdough toast to a bagel with cream cheese AND I bought a delicious Angel-food cake with fruit for pudding tonight! Oh how I love Saturdays.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the answers on the blog etiquette, too.
I was totally going to give Soulmates to Tahereh because she's like a mini-me (in person), but I'd only been following her for a day and I didn't want to go *POUNCE* YOU'RE MY SOULMATE!!!11!!! She's crazy fun, isn't she?
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the awards. I followed you over from Nicole's post this morning.
Congrats on all the awards!!!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much Talli! YAY! I love that Soulmate award. And how did you know about my trip to Mt. Everest?!
ReplyDeleteAs for passing it on - I just kinda made up the rules for the second time I got the award, which is why I only passed it on to three people. Maybe you've got some new blog friends you'd like to showcase!
Have a great weekend!
Congratulations! You deserve every award you receive. :o)
ReplyDeletehaha, I'm the same way. I finally get and award and don't know what to do with it. I'm like the award killer, lol.
ReplyDeleteBut it looks like you're doing a great job actually. Love your blog! Hope your day gets sunny and warm.
Congrats on your awards, and thanks for stopping by my place and becoming a follower. I appreciate it.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the awards!
ReplyDeleteAs to following the rules, I always treat the rules as flexible and do what I can. Just have fun with them :)
I like your made up tidbits. Very clever. :) And as far as rules go, they're made to be broken. I don't think anyone is keeping track.
ReplyDeleteOh the thought of your lovely breakfast is making me wonder what I have here to toast and stick butter on. Am out of bread... this presents a problem! Hm... while I am pondering, I'd say there is no award etiquette, you just enjoy yourself with them. :)
ReplyDeleteCongrats on your awards and yay!wine! :) I hope you are having a great weekend.
ReplyDeleteA whole latte fun going on over here ... Thanks for the Soulmates Award :)
