Awesome Award

Vegan Linda has given me my first ever blog award--the I Love You This Much award. Thanks, Linda! I love you (and your family and blog), too!

As Linda pointed out in her post, though, "it wouldn't be a proper blog award if you keep giving it back to those who gave it to you" so I'm going to link to some of my other favorite blogs.

The participation rules are simple:

1. If you get tagged (and want to play along), write a post with links to blogs that you love,
2. Link to this post so that people can easily find the exact origin of the meme.


Without further ado, I'm giving this award to:

Perpetually Sarah
--Sarah doesn't post much more frequently than I do these days, but hers was the first blog I ever started reading, and she is one of my bestest pals from the time I was in elementary school and was my Maid of Honor when I got married. She is getting ready to welcome her first little one in just a few short weeks, and it's killing me that we live so far away from one another. (Well, it's always been a bummer, but the whole both having kids thing while living so far away is really making me sad.)

Looseyfur's Midwest Adventures
--Loosey's another fabulous blogger, and unlike me, she posts just about every day. Our boys were born just a month apart, and when I read her blog I often feel like she's taking the thoughts out of my mind, articulating them more clearly than I'm usually able to, and posting them. I've really been enjoying her feminist commentary as of late, and it's been a lot of fun to get to know her in person, too.

Two Kids, A Cat, and a Blog--Quigs is another local blogger, and she has the most adorable kids. She really has a knack for injecting humor into her blog posts. I love reading what she writes because it's always so witty. She really has the best one-liners!

Fabulous Follies of a Freaky Family
--The Fearless Freak is yet another fabulous local blogger. Her depiction of her life is so candid, and she lets it all just hang out, so to speak, on her blog. Her honesty is refreshing, and she often posts things that I sometimes wish I had the guts to talk about.
