Liebster: dearest, beloved, favorite
An email last week notified me that a comment had been left on my About page on this blog. “Mother,” aka Talk to Me…I’m your Mother, at A Letter to My Children, presented me with the Liebster Blog Award, a happy surprise. Many thanks to her, from a blogosphere novice with many less than 200 followers!
“Mother,” like her Liebster awarder, passed on a list of things that give her joy, so I will also:
My family: ’nuff said. ♥
Books: All. Can’t imagine life without them.
Learning: I wish I could have stayed in college forever.
Mint, chocolate, caramel: mmmm…
On that yummy note, my responsibility now is to pass the award on by choosing up to five bloggers who also have fewer than 200 followers. I am stumped on how to figure out how many followers another blog has, so it could be that a couple of the following blogs do have more than 200. Nevertheless, they are blogs I enjoy reading, and I am happy to link to them here, in alphabetical order:
From the Domestic Bubble – The good humor and musings of a fellow at-home mom from across the pond.
Mrs. D. Ranged In AZ - I am a new follower to Mrs. D. Ranged but feel I have found a kindred liberal spirit in the ultra-conservative state of Arizona.
Postcard Fiction – Janet, who has a beautiful way with pictures and words.
Robotic Rhetoric – A young man, not much younger than my son, with great style and a big future ahead of him, imho.
Write or Revise Daily (WORD!) – Such a great resource and so helpful. Judy, forgive me for “many less.” 
So, to all of you who do read this blog, please go check out the others I have listed here. I hope you will find them as enjoyable as I do.
Thank you so much for the award and congratulations of getting it yourself. I’m with you on the choices of family, books, and tomato sauce. I’m a vanilla girl myself. As for college, I’m just glad I finally finished paying it off.
You’re welcome, and thank you too.
Yeah…the money. Always a problem. I’ll be happy when my son finishes college and we have a two-year break until the next kid starts.
wow, thank you so much for this Jeannette. Really has made my day!
You’re welcome. Have fun with it.
Thank you so much! I’m delighted with this award from you and when I told my friend she toasted me with her sparkling water! Working out how to copy the link onto my blog will be a challenge, but definitely one worth taking.
Sure! I’m happy to pass it on to you.
