I've been getting so spoiled lately with all the awards that are being passed around, that I thought it would be fun to come up with an award of my own. Martha also has the same idea which she expressed in her comments to Friday's post - I guess it is true: great minds do think alike :)
The Whoo Loves Ya Baby! award:
~ recognizes one fantastic blogger each month
~ comes with no 'rules'
~ does not need to be posted on the recipient's blog (unless they so choose)
~ but, will be posted along my sidebar with a link back to the honouree's blog for that month.
This month's recipient is Francie, who's blog, A North End Journal, is an entertaining and often
thought-provoking read. I love discovering new blogs and only recently stumbled across Francie;
now I find myself eagerly anticipating her next post.
She also has a hilarious Valentine's Day contest running right now,
the 2nd Annual Magic Pig Wand Contest, that there's still time to get in on.
Did you know that Magic Pig Wands take all the calories out of chocolate?!!
Mr. Cool
Yay! I love this award and how you're handing it out. I think I will do the same; that way I can also feature a new blog each month to my other readers, which will give them an opportunity to discover other great people. I did pick out a name for my award and I'll be working on an image for it this week. So...one is coming soon.
ReplyDeleteAnd congratulations to Francie! I just got back from her blog; it's great! I am now following it.
Hi Martha, That's great!! That's the whole idea behind this award - hopefully some of us discovering a new blog we connect with and that one blogger getting the recognition they deserve.
DeleteI'm looking forward to what you come up with :)
What a terrific idea! Especially an award that comes with NO RULES, lol! Francie is a very worthy first recipient too -- love her blog!
ReplyDeleteThanks Debra :)
DeleteGreat idea Jane!!! I must check out "A North End Journal"--going there right now!!
ReplyDeleteGreat Dianne, I hope you enjoy it.
DeleteSuper idea! Going to check out 'A North End Journal' now.
ReplyDeleteThanks Diane!
DeleteHoly cow! This is so awesome and believe it or not Today is my b-day. I treated myself to a psychic reading but Mother Mavis didn't TELL me about THis!! Thank-you, Thank-you!!! I am humbled!! I don't know how to post the award to my blog, being untalented in that area, but when i figure it out I will! Happy b-day to me! Happy B-day to me!! Thank-you!!! Thank-you, Jane!!!
ReplyDeleteWell a very happy birthday then, hehe - I must be part psychic!!! You are most welcome and deserving :) If you want to carry the award over, (don't feel like you have to) then you simply need to right click on the big owl and save to your downloads folder. Put in whatever caption and title you'd like. Again, congratulations and happy birthday!!
DeleteAwesome idea Jane, I'll go visit Francie now. I need that calorie killing wand! Great idea for other bloggers to do too....I'm still adding things to my new look:) Laughing a Kojak and his attitude, we need more like him! Have a great week Jane...
ReplyDeleteThanks Vicki, Yes, I think we could use more Kojaks in this world. I actually ended up winning the magic wand, so calories from chocolate are a non-issue for me from now on, lol!!
DeleteWow, Jane! This is a genius idea for an award! Have not seen anything like this at all...very genuine. I like the NO RULES idea!
ReplyDeleteGreat job; now, please pass some around! LOL
Thanks Elisabeth, I was hoping it would be well received :) My idea is for the focus to be on one blog for the month - and no rules, lol!!
DeleteGotta love Kojak. I remember when I was young they used to have back to back episodes of Kojak, Barretta, and McCloud. :)
ReplyDeleteI loved all of these series too! Our family often watched them together - we had to - we only had one tv- not like nowadays...
