I’m proud to share that I’ve been nominated for the One Lovely Blog award by Meta Heemskerk of the Netherlands. Meta is a no-holds-barred fiber artist who is constantly learning and growing. I envy her focus and volume of accomplishment. Find out what Meta is up to at Green In The Middle. I’m very pleased that Meta likes my blog. And I am grateful to all who read, comment, like and follow me.
In keeping with the spirit of the award, nominees are expected to
1. Thank the blogger who nominated you and provide a link.
2. Name 7 random things about yourself.
3. Pass the recognition to blogs you enjoy and let them know.
Seven very random things about me:
1. I attended 2 high schools in Germany before graduating in New Mexico.
2. I’m a Jeopardy! addict.
3. I have watched Julie & Julia more times than I care to confess.
4. Ditto for You’ve Got Mail.
5. I learned to swim in 1999. Okay, yes, I could tread water before, but that’s not swimming. Now that I can actually swim, I’m in the pool 3 times a week and I’m comfortably swimming 3/4 mile each time.
6. Lemon is my favorite flavor. Hands down.
7. After tasting a croissant from Poilâne Bakery in Paris (2010) I cannot bring myself to buy one locally. Another trip to Paris is a must.
Now to pass it on:
1. Jenny Lyon
2. Karen Davis
3. Jane Davila
5. Tina Dang
7. Pat Dicker
8. Simon Sinek His focus is business but his thoughts apply to life in general.
10. Deidre Adams
