Hilarie

I had a crazy weekend. A moving sale and my two girls conspired to keep me away from the computer until naptime today. Imagine my surprise when I realized that I had been nominated for some awards by my fellow bloggers during my absence. What a fabulous surprise!

I would also like to thank Linda at Bambi Reads for also nominating me for the Humane Award. For me, the best part of blogging is giving and getting comments.

" The Humane Award is to honor certain bloggers that are kindhearted individuals. They regularly take part in my blog and always leave the sweetest comments. If it wasn't for them,

my site would just be an ordinary book review blog. Their blogs are also amazing and are tastefully done on a daily basis. This award is to thank them for their growing friendships through the blog world."

I would like to nominate Stacy at Stacy's Book Blog, Shelia at One Person's Journey Through a World of Books, Gautami at Everything Distils Into Reading. Linda, I also want to say that you deserve this award!

Finally, I am a complete flake. At the end of June, Stacy at Stacy's Book Blog nominated me for the Heartfelt Award. Stacy, I really do appreciate this award. I'm sorry it has taken me so long to accept it.

Do you reach for a cup of cocoa or tea when you’re relaxing, seeking comfort, sharing a plate of cookies with family & friends?You know that feeling you get when you drink a yummy cup of cocoa, tea ~ or a hot toddy?That is what the Heartfelt award is all about feeling warm inside.

3) Be sure to link to your nominees within your post.
