Hello Sunshine!

Holy Gloom and Fog Batman!! The weather here just gets crappier by the minute. It looks like the early afternoon mist has shifted to full blown rain. I was ready to make my picket signs, but am not sure where to station myself to demand some snow. Luckily, a little bit of sunshine was cast my way from the wonderful Michael Ann over at The Big Green Mixing Bowl. Thank you so very much! When you are done here, put some butter on the counter to soften, and go check her out! Once again, I did some investigating to get more information and to make sure I accepted my award properly. "The Sunshine Blog Award is awarded to bloggers whose positivity and creativity inspires others in the blogosphere". Well alrighty then! I am slightly curious as to what I might be inspiring another person to do (certainly not purchase knitting needles), and am relieved to know that there are positive vibes detected over here!

Here are the rules for accepting this award:

1. Thank the person who gave this award and write a post about it. (check)

2. Answer the following questions below.

3. And pass the award to 10 fabulous bloggers, link their blogs and let them know you awarded them.

Hence, my answers to the questions:

Favorite color? Not gray (in my hair, nor in the sky)...um, purple.

Favorite animal? Oh dear...can Fozzie read? Better say dogs to be safe.

Favorite number? 4

Favorite drink? Black Cherry Ginger Ale as of late, before that, hot cider.

Facebook or Twitter? I fear that which I do not know, so Facebook.

Your passion? Writing, I think. It took me awhile to figure that out (not just now, but overall).

Giving or getting presents? Giving, especially when I think they're going to love it!

Favorite day? Saturday

Favorite flower? I love irises, but a single LILY is my absolute favorite.

I love the following blogs for a variety of reasons. They inspire me to think, write and create something for myself. There are a number of types of creativity at work in them, from actual handmade goods (including swell drawing), to problem solving, and great writing. They truly provide rays of sunshine into my world!

And now, the drumroll..........
