This is a dual-post, which means I posted this on In Season as well as here.Tamara from Thyme for Tea has awarded me the Kreativ Blogger Award. I feel so honored because I don't usually feel very creative. She did say that the hats I crochet entered into her decision to choose me. I didn't think it could be my way with words!
Tamara lives in Australia where she gardens, reads, speaks French, exercises and blogs. Isn't the technoworld great that we can communicate with people from all over the world. I love it!

Congratulations on the award! I loved reading your seven 7s. I hope Candleman takes a gander - I think he'd smile. :)
Thanks, Joy. It was a fun meme, even though there were a few categories I had a hard time filling.
Thank you for not tagging me since I'm such a loser when it comes to playing along! This was a fun meme to read, though.
Kissed a boy nonstop for over 2 hours Wow!! You must've had chapped lips after that! ;)
Two hours? And I always thought you were the good sister.
I'll have to try this sometime but it's going to take some thinking.
