Are you sure you got the right blog, Karen?

My fabulous friend, Karen, must have had either a moment of pity or a stroke because she has awarded me this:
And, I humbly accept (gimme gimme). It means a lot coming from her because she has an awesomely funny blog and is an all around cool person. Thank you, Karen and award it back to you.
In accordance with the rules, I hereby award these 7 other amazing blogs, which I truly enjoy reading, with la 'Brilliante Weblog'. Congratulations, ladies.
1. Kimchi Con Queso: because my oldest friend in the world has taken off on a romantic adventure in Mexico and is giving the world a glimpse into her beautiful and witty life.
2. Even the Nice Ones: because she is nice, with a little spice. And, because she graces us with "Titillating Tuesdays". Exxxcellent, Smithers.
3. Cowgirls Like Me: She's a mom and a teacher, which makes for the most hilarious stories ever.
Plus, she's got a razor wit.
4. Cheese and Whine: because she is so so sweet and has an adorable family. Mix that in with a sense of humor and voila!
5. Life is Too Short Not to Share: ahhh, a fellow potty mouthed mommy blogger. I can relate so well. And also, I've been known to snort while reading her posts.
6. Half as Good as You: She has the best blog header ever. Ever. She's awesome, and, she is the tomboy to my girly girl. I need some balance.
7. Searching for My Inner Skinny: because she puts it all out there! She's so funny and honest and I can totally relate.
And now for the rules:

1. The winner can (and should, really) put the logo on his/her blog
2. The winner must link to the person from whom they received their award.
3. The winner must nominate at least 7 other blogs for an award.
4. The winner must place links to those blogs on their own blog.
5. The winner must leave a message on the blogs of the people they’ve nominated.

Congratulations, Stray Raisins! I'll pass this on when I'm back home. But I might have to break the rules. ... I only follow four blogs, including yours!

Ok this is what happened when I read this today:

I am flopped in my big comfy chair, fuzzy-pink slipper-clad feet propped up, just readin' some blogs in the lazy five minutes I have on Sundays. Oh, this looks interesting - you've awarded this cool bejeweled award to some blogs. Cool! I'd love to see some new blogs! Then I see me. The mouthful of iced tea started to go down my throat but shot out my nose instead, splattering the screen of my mac laptop. I jumped up, saved the laptop, stepped on the dog - ew, definitely a squishy area (sorry JackJack) - caught myself on my bed, saved the laptop again, and ran into my 17-year-old daughter's room, shouting "someone was nice to me - and IT'S ON THE INTERNET!" She looked at me over her battered copy of Catcher in the Rye, and sighed, "mom, first, did you post pictures of your boobs on the internet? Second, knock." But then I showed her this post and she was happy for me. Or maybe she was just happy it had nothing to do with nudity and her mom.

But either way, thank you!
