SHADE YOUR EYES, I'M BRILLIANT


Who is this cute girl, you may be asking? Well, her name is Karen, from Short Story Long, and she blogs from Colorado. I don't know much about her, but I can tell you she likes RED, which gives us immediate common ground. Also, she just awarded me the Brilliante award that you now see glowing on my sidebar. So she is cute and has an apparent degree of discernment. She also has three little boys who are quite accident prone, as little boys are wont to be. I have heard that the emergency room at her local hospital has a daily appointment set for her family and once in a while she calls to say they won't be in that day. She is also a quilter, but frankly, when does a mother of three have the luxury of sitting down long enough for something like that? Go visit her and see what I mean!

So thank you Karen, for the very nice compliment of this award. I have so many brilliant blogger friends out there that I can't really chose, and I think if you read my blog you must be brilliant!
Now if I may, I feel the need to interject the fact that I have several Karens who are kind enough to leave me comments, and I am having a heck of a time determining who is who. Would it be too much to ask you to add an initial or part of your blog title to you name? Say maybe, "Primitive Karen", or "Short Karen", or "LC Karen", etc. Just a thought.

Have a happy day!

YOU MAKE MY DAY!



Since posting my Trees on the Table pattern last fall I have had the pleasure of meeting some new friends in Blogland. One of those friends is Lea who lives in Japan. She made the trees quilt and sent me a picture, giving me the opportunity to meet her and see the beautiful work that she displays on her blog, Simple Pleasures. Lea has honored me with the You Make My Day Award. Ironically, her blog is one that I would have nominated! Thanks Lea!

The rules for this award say to choose up to 10 people whose blog brings you happiness & inspiration and makes you feel happy about Blogland. Let them know by posting a note on their blog so they can pass it on.


There are so many blogs that I love to read that I have trouble getting to all of them. Not for lack of interest! Here are a few special ones from the many that I enjoy. They make Blogland a pleasant place indeed! I hope you will drop by their blog and say hello!
