Bloggers often bestow awards upon each other, awards come in a number a varieties and are a great way to generate link love! I think it is important to display these awards and to provide you with the links to sites that awarded me such honors. I’ll also pass on awards here so take a moment to check out the following sites and make some new bloggy friends!

Grandy over at FunctionalShmunctional presented me with the “Make My Day Award” that she actually received from Renie Burghardt’s World

“Dirty Laundry Diva - I’m impressed with this woman as it appears she may have been blogging for only a short time and yet she already has her own domain? She just moved so it’s only right if I give her a web-warming gift. Right?”

Now I would like to share the love by passing the award to the following blogs:

frogpondsrock because I met her via some blog flaming and she is feisty. She is also well rounded and her blog is fun!

shamelesslysassy is another blog that I look forward to reading because, well she writes with attitude and speaks her mind. I like that in a blog!

shesoghetto is a blog that will make you laugh, but you will most likely also agree with the post topic. It is a humorous blog about being ghetto, we all do it!

My 2nd award from AmyOpps. The Oops award was created and to be given to bloggers who inspire others with their humor and their talents, also for contributing to the blogging world in whatever medium. When you receive this award it is considered a “special honor”. Once you have received this award, you are to pass it on to others.”

I would like to pass the AmyOpps award on to 5 bloggers that I feel are impacting the blogospere and contributing in a great way.

Kate… uncensored because I admire the realness of her posts. Her honesty is refreshing to read and her bravery is to be commended. She is a delightful person I am sure (I have never met her) and I really enjoy reading her blog.

Hot Child in the Suburbs because reading her blog is like sitting down for coffee with her. Actually she kind of thinks like me so when I read her posts I ovten have NOTHING to contribute as a coment because she already said it all in her post. Strange huh? So I lurk over at her blog, now she’ll know!

Olga, The Traveling Bra is another blog where I lurk. I am loving the concept of her blog, especially the photos of the bra in all the different places. There is good stuff over there so check it out if you haven’t already.

The Vaguetarian Tea Room is another blogger whose writing style is friendly much like meeting for coffee and talking with an old friend. She also does some fun writing activities that her readers can participate in.

Last but not least Shamelessly Sassy because she is funny, sentimental, outspoken and I can also relate to her posts. She blogs about whatever is going on with her and no matter what it is I find it a great read, though I especially love her rants!

I would like to pass the KICK ASS BLOGGER award on to the following bloggers. They not only make me laugh when I read their blog posts but they also make me shoot coffee out of my nose when I read the comments they leave. You guys rock and I value your support and interaction!
