Saturday Awards Show

As usual I am late posting awards and I am sure I have forgotten one, and I appologize. Also as usual, casual dress is accepted even encouraged. I prefer the pagama and slipper look myself. So grab a coffee and relax, I promise it won't take as long as those award shows on tv.. I tried to get Jimmy Fallon to host but he was busy.

The first comes from Tamela at The Chatty Brunette. She has a new name for her blog but it is still the same fun site.

 
For this award I am suppose to list 10 things that I love. So here goes in no particular order, except the first one.
  1. I love my daughters more than anything.. and my whole family whom I couldn't live with out.
  2. Purses... I love purses. I save the best of the old ones but rarely reuse one..don't tell the previously mentioned husband.
  3. Flowers, especially in my garden. I am going to work on that this summer.
  4. TV, yep I like it all, drama, medical, reality and sci fi.
  5. Movies, especially British comedies. The Full Monty, Saving Grace and Raising Ned Devine to name a few.
  6. Concerts, I love to go to live shows. Lately we have been to some live stand up shows.
  7. Travel, mostly been to the midwest these days but I like to visit cities and would love to do more over seas. What's the saying "Champagne taste on a beer budget"... oh well.
  8. Food, unfortunately it likes me as well. Not met too many things I won't eat. 
  9. Shoes, but not as much as purses. And not heels so much. Sneakers, flats, and flip flops are more my thing.
  10. And last but not least my friends. all of them, near and far. In the computer and in RL.
I am to award this to 10 bloggers.. I'll do my best.
  1. Cathy at Antsy Pants
  2. Sassy Mom from Stacy's Randm Thoughts
  3. Masshole Mommy
  4. KaLynn from Kacklin' with KaLynn
  5. Whispering Writer from Airing My Dirty Laundry, One Sock at a time

Jingle gave me this award [actually I was allowed to pick from several]. I think all blogs deserve some bling. She is a great writer and I discovered reading all the Friday 55 posts.
There are no rules. :) So if you want some bling for your blog please help yourself.

This fun award is from The Purse Blogger how awesome a blog name is that. If you were paying attention above, you know I love purses. There are rules for this one, I must tell you 5 CHARACTERS with whom I would choose to knock boots with. [as The Purse Blogger so eloquently said]

Russell Crowe as Cpt. Jack Aubrey-Master and Commander:The Far Side of the World 


 Russell Crowe as Maximus in Gladiator.

Russell Crowe as Terry Thorne in Proof of Life

Yes there is a theme here.. but I don't have a one track mind..

Robert Carlyle as Gaz in The Full Monty


Craig Ferguson as Matthew Stewart in Saving Grace

It is an ecclectic collection of characters, some are handsome and exciting, some not classically handsome but funny and others that you just care about by the end of the movie.

This award I pass onto
  1. JP
  2. Mimi at Living in France
  3. A Day in the Life of a Surferwife
  4. Stacie at Stacie's Madness
  5. Lisa at Smell the Coffee Lisa

Now go visit all these great bloggers and follow them too.... I know where you all hang out. :-)
