Dana, at The Daily Dose, has passed the Fabulous Blog Ribbon
on to me. Thank you so much! I enjoy your blog, so it’s nice to hear that
you seem to enjoy mine enough to award it a ribbon. Even better, a virtual ribbon, so I don’t have
to worry about a cat eating it!
Here are rule for the Fabulous Blog Ribbon:
1.
Post the rules on your blog.
2.
Name five of your most fabulous moments, either
in real life or in the blogosphere.
3.
Name five things you love.
4.
Name five things you hate.
5.
Pass the ribbon on the five other bloggers. (Leave them a comment to notify them of their
win.)
I have to say, I really like that everything with this award
is in fives; five is my favorite number.
Okay, so here are my groups of five things:
Five of my most fabulous moments:
1.
My wedding day; it was a beautiful day, and I
got to marry the person who has become my everything.
2.
The day I convinced my parents to let me adopt
my dog Emma.
3.
The first time we came to our house after the
closing. It was a great feeling to walk
through the door that was now ours.
4.
When the title and contract marked “paid in full”
for my car came in the mail last summer.
It was the first time I’d ever paid off a car, so it was one of those
really great, responsible “grown-up” moments.
5.
The look on my grandfather’s face at my wedding
when he had his special dance with all three granddaughters and my aunt.
Now for five things I hate (I know I’m skipping around, but
I want to end my five things on a positive note):
1.
Animal abusers.
2.
Snow, ice, and really cold weather.
3.
People who are mean or cruel to anyone weaker
than themselves, whether it’s a child, an elderly person, an animal, or just
someone less able than they are.
4.
Condescending people.
5.
Anything hazelnut: coffee, candles, anything at
all.
Five things I love:
1.
My family and friends, and especially my
husband. Without them I am nothing.
2.
My pets, a.k.a. the fur kids.
3.
The (near) daily reminder in the comments on my
blog and in reading other people’s posts that the world is full of
interesting, decent, kind, wonderful human beings.
4.
Cooking, especially if it’s for a big crowd of
people I care about.
5.
The beach.
Now for the really hard part, passing the ribbon on to five
other bloggers:
1.
Carrie at The Slow-Dripped Life
2.
Cat at Cat’s Stuff
3.
Martha at Seaside Simplicity
4.

5.
