An Award? For Me?

I'm stunned!

I apologize for the delay in posts,  RL (real life) bit me hard the past few days, but here I am!

I'm thrilled, stunned and overjoyed to report that I was nominated for an award! Many thanks to Linda at Hello, It's Me, and to Bernie, aka The Apartment Prepper  for nominating me for the Liebster Award!

All that comes to mind is a Sally Fields impression from an awards show... "You like me! You really like me!"
Seriously though, thank you for the award. It means a great deal to this neophyte blogger.


1. Copy and paste the award on your blog.

2. Link back to the blogger who gave you the award.

3. Pick your favorite blogs with less than 200 followers, and leave a comment on their blog to let them know they have received the award.

4. Hope that the five blogs chosen will keep spreading the love and pass it on to five more blogs.

Tomorrow, I'll pass on this little bit of blogger prestige to my favorite blogs, and let you know who I've chosen.
Today I'll be working on my post for tomorrow, and cooking.
I've said it before, and I'll say it again, the importance of home cooking cannot be overstated. Cooking at home provides you and your family, and friends, with a more nutritious meal. One you have more control over, one more modifiable than a quick burger delivered in a silver wrapper. It also allows us to be creative in a way often discounted. Don't discount the power of good food. One of the best gifts I received as a teenager was a cookbook. One of the most important things I ever did was learn how to cook.

I'm off to wake up the second son, and then admire the pages of the Food Network's Chocolate issue.
See you tomorrow!

Oh very cool and VERY much appropriate; you've earned it and I'm glad you got it! Wish I'd known about it, I'd definitely have nominated you.
Again, congrats!
