I've Gotten a Liebster Award

I was visiting my blog buddy Hakea’s blog when I noticed she had given me a Liebster Award. What’s the Liebster Award, you ask.

Well, the Liebster Award is said to have originated in Germany. Translated to English, it means “beloved.” The Liebster Award is meant to bring more attention to blogs with fewer than 200 followers.

Here are the rules. They’re pretty straight forward:

Show your thanks to the blogger who gave you the award by linking back to them.
Reveal your top 5 picks and let them know by leaving a comment on their blog.
Post the award on your blog.
Bask in the love from the most supportive people on the Internet.

And best of all – have fun and spread the karma!

So, here are my picks, in no particular order.

In blogging as in life, people just seem to connect, despite distance. I connected immediately with these bloggers and try to read their blogs each time they have new posts. Hope you get a chance to check out their blogs.

Totsymae – Funny and irreverent. Talented writer and artist. And a fun blog, to boot! I laugh every time I read Totsymae’s posts.

Inside Out Cafe – Marge writes insightful observations of life, her family – especially her grandson.

To Write is to Write – Kathy’s a fabulous story-teller. I know you’ll enjoy reading her stories as much as I do.

Heather Blog – Heather and I share a love of Paris. I’ve learned a lot from her – about Paris and photography – and writing great headlines. Though she’s much better at it.

A Wobbly Rotten Neutron – Don’t let the name scare you. Tony writes about music, his family and his travels, though not in that order.

Now, share the Liebster Award with five more bloggers. And have fun!
