One Lovely Blog Award

A fellow blogger, Katie, has a great and informative blog, A Cook Walks into a Bar.  I follow her blog and enjoy reading her posts.  Today, Katie announced that she had received an award from a fellow blogger.  The award -- "One Lovely Blog" -- is given by bloggers in recognition of other bloggers who, as the name suggests, have "one lovely blog."

The rules for this award are three fold.  First, post the award on your blog with the name of the person who bestowed it, along with a link to the person's blog.  Second, share the love by nominating fifteen other bloggers for the award because you admire their blogs.  Third, contact the blog owners to let them know that you have nominated them for the award.

I am very thankful that Katie would think of my blog when it came to identifying a blog that she really likes or admires. This blog is my hobby, and I spend a lot of time on it as a way to reduce my stress from my job.  I often wonder what people think of this blog when they visit and read my posts.  I am glad that what I write and cook is interesting and enjoyable to read. 

However, while I am very grateful for the award, I have a quandary.  I cannot identify fifteen bloggers who should receive this award.  It is not that there are not 15 bloggers who deserve it.  It is because I spend so much of my free time cooking and writing blog posts for my blog, that I do not really follow a lot of blogs.  I follow only a handful of blogs, such as Katie's blog.  So, I cannot nominate fifteen bloggers.  

Still, I think there is someone who deserves this award just as much as me, if not more.  Her name is Lauren, and she is the blogger behind What Lauren Eats.  Lauren has a great blog with many good recipes. She definitely has "One Lovely Blog" and I would highly recommend her blog, along with Katie's blog, for those who are foodies like me.

I think I can hear the music, so I should probably wrap up my "acceptance" post.  Once again, I am thankful for the award and I hope you will visit A Cook Walks into the Bar and What Lauren Eats.

ENJOY!
