Another award...thank you, Heidi!!!


Heidi from Tried-and-True Cooking with Heidi passed along an award to me and I can't begin to tell you how much it meant! This has been one of those weeks in which anything and everything that could go wrong, has gone wrong, so I very much appreciated the little "pick me up". I just found out this evening that my grandfather's health is declining, which is extremely difficult for me to come to terms with. Being a nurse, I'm forced to deal with patients passing away, but it's a whole different story when it affects you personally. It certainly puts everything into perspective and makes you realize just how precious life is and that every day truly is a gift.

On a happier note, I now have the privilege of passing this award onto seven other bloggers...several are blogs I have only recently started following, but greatly enjoy!

1) Elyse at Elyse's Confectionery Creations
2) Denise at Keeper Worthy Recipes
3) Teresa at A Blog About Food
4) Chrissy at A Lil' Dash of Diva
5) Jen at A Thrifty Home
6) Lara at Recipe Shoebox
7) Risa at Baked Perfection

Make sure you check out all of these blogs...they're all wonderful! I'm now off to bed... :)

  7. I'm so sorry to hear about your grandfather. I have lost all my grandparents now except my Granny Ruby. It kills me to think of the day when she will no longer be with us. I'm so glad the award helped brighten your day :)

  10. Sorry to hear about your Grandfather. My own Grandfather recently passed away last year and it was hard even though it was the best thing for him and everyone. I miss him all of the time, especially in the summer when we used to get together a lot. Grandfathers are the best!

    Thanks for the award.
