Versatile Blogger Award-My 1st Award

By Barb Drozdowich

Happy Saturday to all!  I have just won my first award!  As you can see from the title, it is called the Versatile Blogger Award.  I’m honored 🙂

The award started with BLHMistress over at Book Lover’s Hideaway.  She awarded it to Theresa at The Creative Well who awarded it to me 🙂  I’ll add it to my sidebar in a bit, but first there are 4 things that I have to do:

1) Share 7 things about yourself

2) Pass this award on to 15 other bloggers recently discovered

3) Notifiy the recipients

4) Link the blogger who gave this award

So…first things first….

7 Things about me

1) I am quite similar to Theresa as I am a terrible housekeeper.  My house has that “comfortable lived in look” aka stuff all over the place.

2) I HATE to cook.  I do cook, but every day seems to be a panic of what to serve for dinner.  If I won a million dollars I would hire a chef 🙂

3) My favorite meal is turkey.  Since I was born on Canadian Thanksgiving, I get my favorite meal for my birthday every year!

4) I live in Beautiful British Columbia surrounded by mountains.  I can see mountains from every window of my house and I love it!

5) Along the same theme – I escaped from Toronto about 15 years ago and haven’t looked back.

6) I am the mother to one spoiled little girl 🙂

7) I was introduced to my husband by my cousin who had been telling me for years that “he had the perfect man for me”.  Apparently he did 🙂

The next thing I need to do is to pass the award on the 15 bloggers that I’ve recently discovered.  Since I quite new to blogging, everyone is new to me, even if they have been around for a while.  I decided to pass this award on to the bloggers that I enjoy reading the most.  Hopefully they will be pleased to see how highly I regard their work 🙂

1 –  Attack of the Book

2 – All Things Historical

3 – Fiction State of Mind

4 – Addicted to Romance

5 – Romance Novels I Read

6 – The Book Girl

7 – The Book Vixen

8 – Julia Barrett’s World

9 – I Just Finished Reading…

10 – Romance Rookie

11) Book Junkie

12) Fiction Vixen Book Reviews

13) A Buckeye Girl Reads

14) The Good, The Bad, and The Unread

15) About Happy Books

Thank you again to Theresa at The Creative Well!

    Congrats! You deserve it! I hate to cook too. Thankfully my husband does all the cooking or my family would only eat Mac N Cheese!

    I. Hate. Housecleaning. Unless I’m getting paid! Thanks for awarding me!

      As long as the house is reasonably clean and no one will get sick – what’s a bit of clutter 😉

    Congratulations on your first award and thank you for it. 🙂 I’ve discovered it’s not cooking I hate, but the cleaning up that takes out all the fun of it. I love your number 7!

    Congrats on the award and thanks for passing it along to me 🙂

    I don’t like cooking either. I LOVE turkey!!

    • Barb

      Thank you, and you are welcome. I really enjoy reading what you have to say! Turkey is the world’s most perfect food. And if you cook a big enough one, you don’t have to cook all week, just heat up leftovers 🙂

        Turkey really is the best food ever. Especially when covered in gravy 🙂

    Thanks so much for the award, Barb! I’m so happy that you enjoy reading our blog!

    I’m so jealous of your beautiful location! I’d love to be out of the rat race and live in a beautiful open space. LA definitely is not that!

      You’re welcome and I think you deserve it! LA isn’t that, but further north…..
