Two awards and a tag!

A while back Lea over at Living Life Now in Kiwi Land awarded me a Liebster Award, I must admit to forgetting all about it and not passing it on. It's generally the passing on of these awards that I can have a bit of a problem with as they often mean nominating sometimes up to 12 others and that becomes quite a mission really and smacks of 'chain letters'. Then today I get another Liebster award from Donna over at Little Cottage in the Country which reminded me that I hadn't passed the award on.

Liebster means beloved or favourite in German and the purpose of the award is to appreciate smaller blogs and those with less than 200 followers. Some of the blogs I follow are way past that mark. So it narrowed down who I could nominate. So without further ado.........

The rules for the acceptance of this award are as follows:

1)Copy and paste the award on your blog........... Done

2)Link back to the blogger's' who gave you the award.............Done

3)Pick 5 favorite blogs with less than 200 followers and leave a comment on their blog to let them know they received the award. Done

Nominees  and in no particular order

1) Mels Backyard We 'met' through an online forum and began following each others blogs, Mel is in Canada. We share the same kind of humour and although she hasn't posted much lately I love her witty writings.

2) Heather; at Home in the Townships We 'met' through the same forum as Mel above. She and her OH are renovating their home' also in Canada she reminds me of me when we first started out renovating, she has drive and enthusiasm that I don't have these days. The tranformation of her lovely home has been good to follow

3) Katidids another 'friend' made through the same forum. A really creative lady with a big supply of wine apparently ready and waiting if I help her tidy her craft room! How could I refuse, never been to the USA before! :D

4) Basketful of Joy Another online buddy. A hugely talented and creative lady who was apparently inspired by some crocheting I did which made her pick up her needles after a long time of inactivity and now produces the most wonderful work! New to to the Blogging world I think she deserves a look.

And finally...

5) You can call me Sue My partner in crime and new to the Blogging world. Admitted to me recently that she 'Just loves blogging cos she can say what she bloody well pleases!' And she will, I can assure you of that.

4) Hope the 5 blogs will keep spreading the love and pass it to 5 more blogs (If you are able)

Lea also 'tagged' me, I'll fill you in on that tomorrow.
Happy blogging everyone.
