last time i received an award i was in 5th grade
It was for the pumpkin contest. I decorated mine to look like a trick-or-treater dressed as a ghost. I won five dollars, and it was the highlight of my childhood.
Well, I was a little afraid to put this up, but Pam from For the Love of Cooking awarded me with it a little over a week ago. Thank you, Pam! Everyone should check out her site. Two recent posts—Shredded Beef Taco Salad and Baked Acorn Squash and Butternut Squash—look delicious.
When you receive this award, you cut and paste the icon into your own post, and then you select five other blogs to give the award to. Then you email them with the fabulous news! Here are my picks:
Chocolate Shavings—great photography; great food
Tea and Cookies—more great photography, and great writing about life and food
Landoflauralot—my smart and sophisticated friend from college. Her blog has great writing and insights on life.
Exclusively Food—two cool food bloggers from Australia. Try their lemonade scones!
Sweet and Low—a great new design blog
Thank you again to Pam, and thank you to everyone who reads my blog!

Wow, I’m honored!
Only 5? this is going to be hard. But easier since you already got an “E” you would be my top choice.

Aww, you sweet thing. Thank you so much (just what I needed as I attempt another late night writing session!). Let’s definitely be friends–especially because I want a picnic in Narnia with brioche doughnuts:-)

I just fixed my entry. Before, it said I dressed my pumpkin to look like a pumpkin, which didn’t make much sense. Now it says ghost, like it should.
