I received the Sweet Blog Award from teJan @ Insights. I don’t think I deserve a Sweet Blog Award, but I’m keeping it because I’m mercenary like that (and I appreciate it). Thank you teJan!
I need to pass it to Sweet people, which is difficult because I only follow sweet people. So this will go to my first followers (who are still around): Mel, acutelife, the girl in stiletto, LOLanne, Angel, Dana, Kimmy, Leah, Kym , Dawna, Krissy, Manju, Blair, Olivia and Thanh Thao.
I received the Stylish Blogger Award from London’s-Beauty @ London’s Boutique. I really don’t deserve this one either, but…well, see above! Thank you missy!
I need to state 5 random facts about myself and then share the award with Stylish bloggers.
5 Random facts about me:
1. I’ve been trying to recreate my mom’s peach cobbler recipe, but no luck. It was just a bisquick creation, but I can’t find the right mix of spices. Any suggestions???
2. For a few fleeting moments last summer my barber thought I was cool. Well, really she just teased me about leaving the house with my t-shirt on inside-out (“That’s how all the cool kids are wearing their shirts”). I was in a hurry after showering and slipped it on without checking.
3. Speaking of inside-out shirts, how do you turn one right-side out? I pull the shirt down through the opening at the bottom. My wife pulls the entire shirt up through the neck. My way is better, right??? =)
4. I pitched one inning of organized baseball. I gave up no hits and no runs, but I was wild. I struck out two batters and walked FOUR. No runs scored because I picked a runner off 1st base. After that my coach sent me back to the outfield and I stayed there. Did that make sense to anyone?
5. While having lunch last week I noticed ladies purses slung over chairs or sitting on the floor. I thought restaurants should place wide, rounded hooks under tables so that women could hang their purses in front of them. Good idea? You know, I never noticed purses until I started blogging. LOL
I’m passing the Stylish Blogger award on to: Amy, Ana, Bananas, Becks, Elaine, eQ, Georgina, Ibyang, Jing, Julie, Livia, MeiBelle, Rena, RML, Sonia, and Wenny.
Aww thank you for passing the award to me :)
ReplyDeletePlease don't ask me anything about recipes LOL XD
Yes, I think your way is better when it comes to putting shirts right-side out!
I am not big on sports so I did not get that baseball bit, sorry XD
Oh, regarding bag hangers, we have that here! You can buy those nifty bag hooks that you can place on tables so ladies have something to hold their purse. No need to put it on the laps or on the floors :)
Aww, thanks for giving me an award!! :-)) This is the second time I receive the Sweet Blogger Award, am I really that sweet?? XDDD
ReplyDeleteGreat to know people think I'm sweet :-))
thank you for the stylish blogger award rick! :)
ReplyDeletethe earrings got so much love from you guys! your mom seems cool and stylish too! ;)
and NO, i did not understand a single thing for no. 4! hahaha!
but i agree on no. 5 (OMG i cannot put my purse on the floor here it would get all sorts of germs!) restaurants should really look into that detail for the ladies :)
With shirts I do it either way depending which end I grab first :)
ReplyDeleteI agree about the restaurants, one I went to recently had a shelf under the table to put all your things on which I thought was smart :)
Awww...yey thanks Rick. Really, I would never wonder why you got so many awards. You really do deserve them, I know I've told you that before but really, you do.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the award! I... I didn't even prepare an acceptance speech, I wasn't expecting it! You have no idea what this does to my self-esteem! Being a part of all this was an amazing opportunity, not only to grow as a professional, but also to meet these wonderful people! Thank you, Woody Allen, thank you for the words! Thank you, Academy!
ReplyDeleteThanks Rick for the award!!!!! ^___^ I pull my shirt through the bottom too just cause you can stretch the collar out if you do it the other way!
ReplyDeleteHave you tried to add a pinch of nutmeg to the cobbler?
i notice that you chose stylish over sweet for me...you aren't the first you know ;) haha!
ReplyDeletethanks rick! you're always so sweet!!! and you know what, i've worn my tops inside-out too. oops!
hello. applauds for the awards! :)
ReplyDeleteaww i don't know much about cooking. my cooking skills suck. I haven't tried peach cobblers before, but it sounds deli! You should do a post about cooking L:
I normally go on this site called
'videojug.com' to check out recipes.
Here's a link that leads you to how make peach cobblers. It looks very simple to me. It probably isn't the one you're looking for.

I right side out my shirts like you. I don't know that it's better but it's easier for me. ;) Thanks for the award!!!
ReplyDeletewooooots thanks for the tag :))
ReplyDeletesome restos actually have those hooks under the tables for purses ;) theres also portable "hooks" you can buy for those... http://www.pursehook.net/
:)
thanks for the blog award. lol about not knowing purses until started blogging, its ok I don't know and never really knew much about cars either :D
ReplyDeletecongrats on the award! i know why they awarded you these. it's all about the content and heart. have a great day!
ReplyDeleteLOL Thank you for the "Stylish Blog" award! I didn't realize that I was nominated! *claps claps
ReplyDelete<33 Rena
Thank you so much Rick!
ReplyDeleteLol! you are such a stylish blogger! Haha!
No. 3 - Yours is easier
No. 4 - if only i learned how to play baseball, i can give you a better comment about this. I was a volleyball player when i was in high school.
No. 5 - I dont have a stylish bag. I carry a large briefcase everyday (*sigh), but your suggestion is good. By the way, bag hooks were invented i think 2 or 3 years ago. Comes in stylish and sparkly hooks and all you have to do is to just hang the hook on the chair together with your bag.
Oh oo, I'm here to accept my award! ;D lol
ReplyDeleteThanks Rick :)
LOL you walked four!? haha, that's kind of a lot. hahah.
& your purse comment is pretty funny.
& yeah that'd be a great idea. But then restaurants would need bigger tables or purses would be hitting people's legs, and there'd be a lack of space for that. Women's purses aren't that important to restaurant owners! lol Nice idea though :)
Thanks, oooh...Stylish award, eh? wow! :-)Aww.. you're sweet, thanks Rick!
ReplyDeleteRic, thanks for the award! it means a lot that you considered me to pass the award on to, especially since i've been anything but consistent with my posting/visiting lately (although there is one coming on the horizon.... haha). And it makes me sit back and feel very grateful for you as a friend, albeit online :] you definitely deserved the sweet award!
ReplyDeleteAwww, the sweet blog award makes me melt.. thanks for passing it to me =]
ReplyDeletethank you for the award! i wish i could help you out with that cobbler : / I'll work on practicing my baking lol
ReplyDeleteMy Oh My, see what I found here. Another award? You shouldn't have Rick but thank you for thinking of me. Cheers!
