One Lovely Blog Award

Today is a pretty big day.  My little brother is graduating from high school! I am so excited for him and I can't believe he is all grown up and going off to college! It just makes me feel super old! I wish him the best of luck with whatever he does and wherever he goes.  I hope that he has great experiences in college and that he makes great friends! I have had an amazing college experience so far and I hope that he does as well.
Me and my "not-so-little-anymore" brother...posing like champs
I am also so excited to say that Starr over at the Misfit Baker just awarded me with One Lovely Blog Award.  Starr's blog is truly fantastic and she shares a bunch of vegan and healthy recipes that look amazing! I can't wait to share this Lovely Blog Award on this Lovely day! I feel flattered to have received this award and I am excited to pass the award along to some amazing blogs that I have been enjoying lately.

  6. Thank yo so much for the award! It was great to receive it.
    I am sorry that I am not posting so much or checking out your recipes as often as I would like to. I am up to my ears in the post production of two, one hour, programmes for the Horse and Country channel here in the UK. I will not be about for about a month at least. :-( I have a couple of posts in hand that Mark, my husband, will post for me when he can get around to it. He's over in Glasgow at the moment working on the BBC's antiques road trip prog. Oh woe is me! I cannot use him as my editor!!! Not to worry I have two very good replacements (not quite as good as him though :-( ) Keep up the good work and I will be back soon. I will also do the awards then as well. :-)
