Here's a big shout out to the incredibly crafty Melanie Boyer of Texas who ever-so-kindly granted me this.... 
Thanks Melanie!
The deal is that now I've accepted I need to spread the love and pass it along to 10 other bloggers. I bent the rules a bit and am passing the award to some bloggers that I visit fairly regularly - some are new to me as the guidelines recommend, but others have been on my reading list for quite some time. The latter group deserve it though since they continue to keep me coming back for more. Here is my list - you all deserve a big thumbs up!

Now ladies, if you're on my list, it's your turn to pass the award along. The rules are simple.
- Accept the award, post it on your blog together with the name of the person who has granted the award, and his or her blog link.
- Pass the award to 10 other blogs that you’ve newly discovered. Remember to contact the bloggers to let them know they have been chosen for this award.
