Kreativ Blogger Award

You know, this blogging community rocks! Isn’t it incredible that we can find and become part of such a supportive and nurturing community when we haven’t actually met its residents? One of those awesome residents, Alpha B., has awarded me with this Kreativ Blogger Award! Thank you so much, Alpha B.!! I do so enjoy your visits here and am happy you received this award because your blogs are fantastic!

With this award, I'm asked to tell you about seven of my favorite things.

With a previous award, I spoke of seven things I love and listed my husband, son, family, pets, etc., so I'll create a different type of favorites list here.

1. I enjoy early mornings when everyone is sleeping and I can write, read and surf online to my heart's content, usually with coffee nearby.

2. I enjoy staring into a fire, especially outdoors, while new age type music plays in the background. Visions and ideas come so easily then.

3. Autumn is my favorite time of year. Cool brisk air...sweaters...school...turning leaves...apple orchards...baking...anticipation...Halloween!

4. Being accepted by a kitten or cat...or at least tolerated.

5. Chocolate. Wait, why isn't this number one? I must be slipping.

6. I love lilacs. Not only do I love their scent and pretty little petals, but they always bring me back to lighter, more innocent times, my parents' home, and gathering bunches and bunches to bring as gifts for my school teachers.

7. Studying other cultures. I don't know if or when we'll be able to take a big trip but until that day happens, I can soak up as much knowledge as I can about the world around us.

I'd like to send this Kreativ Blogger award to the following seven creative blogger friends:
