Leanne gave me this award during the week and her reasoning was, ”I’m going to pass this on to the bloggers who make me feel more worldly for knowing them.” I’m touched that my Down-Underish-ness makes you feel that way Leanne, although I’m not sure I’m more ‘worldly’ than the next person!
Now I guess I have to tag some people. Here goes!
Richard, and old friend from university days, is currently living in Japan and takes great photos to boot. Not that he needs the linky-love, though, as his blog is popular enough as it is (or so he tells me *wink*)
I’m currently enjoying Guera’s travels.
Redneckmommy’s descriptions of Canadian winters make me shiver just reading them!
Babyamore (Trish) awarded me this Excellent award this week. Thanks so much! Now I will be good again and pass this along to:
SlouchingMom because she probably doesn’t think I read her (but I do!)
Penni because I love her writing and I keep seeing her name pop up these days on blogs and as facilitator in upcoming local writer’s centre courses. On top of the books to come out! Busy busy girl!
Lani because all her blogs are good and I don’t know how she fits everything in!
and CrazyTrace because she is an undiscovered Aussie blog gem, even if she won’t admit it.

Yesterday, I was admiring the recent photo Schmutzie took of a pink cupcake and said as much to her. Then, to my delight, she comes and emails me the photo, saying I could use it as my desktop wallpaper and I am pleased to say I am! Thanks Schmutzie 
Makes my picture of chocolate-covered biscuits look positively amateur (which it is, sad to say!)

I forgot I was supposed to link back to Lightening’s Pay it Forward post with my own sort of Pay it Forward post. Sorry about that; I think this qualifies, wouldn’t you say?

That’s a good award!
Jean-Luc Picard’s last blog post..T’Pol & Britney In The Mirror Universe (Part Two)
Well, thank you, Karen! I don’t know that I ever considered whether you read me or not… But now that I know you do, I won’t let you off that easily! Because you don’t strike me as the lurking type. Comment, friend, comment!
I’ve received this award and passed it on already, so I won’t be passing it on again, but it’s still an honor to receive it from you.
So thanks again.
Awww. Thank you! I don’t know that you’re right but I am chuffed nonetheless. I have an ‘award passing on/linking to my favourite bloggers’ post in draft mode at the moment. Right now I’m struggling with time to do it all justice! But I’ll get there, and I’ll pass this one along as well!
Tracey’s last blog post..It’s raining, it’s pouring…
What a nice surprise to wake up to! Thank you. My deep, dark secret is, though, that I don’t even come close to fitting everything in. Sigh…
Lani’s last blog post..My Birthday Wish List
Hi,
I came across your blog and must admit I skipped the whole awards post coz I was searching for something to “read”. And then I found your whole PMS brain-uterus conversation post. LOL!! That’s just pepped me up for the rest of the day! I need to start really expressing myself. I guess I’m still blog-shy! Drop in when you have time. Cheers!
Thanks for the mention Karen. Whatever you feel like doing is completely fine. That’s a nice idea, donating some of your earnings.
I’m just wondering if you’d like a piece about your blog and an interview like I did with Guera and Jenn (assuming you saw those posts) or would you like me to do a bit of a review about your book when it comes out (or is that going to be too far away?). Let me know, I don’t mind.
Lightening’s last blog post..Memes and Awards
Aw, thank you. That is so sweet of you. Now, would you mind coming to my house and telling my kids that I’m a Bloggess? Cuz in my head that’s just like a Goddess and maybe then my kids would start listening to me…
LOL.
