Recently it has been hot and humid in my neck of the woods….but….NO….that’s not the reason.  I could even say it is a hot flash…but….NO…not that either.  Its that special feeling you get…warm all over….when someone gives you a great big hug!!!  Well….Vicki from Reading At The Beach just gave me a huge hug in the form of an award.  If you follow this blog, you know what I think about Vicki.  She was one of the first bloggers I reached out to for help when I found this wonderful world of book blogging.  I had never seen the word meme, didn’t even know what it was, but Vicki was always there to answer all my questions, even to this day.  I am honored that I can call her “Friend”.  If you haven’t visited, you don’t know what you are missing.  Her reviews are professional,  her postings interesting and her pictures absolutely beautiful.  Take a walk over to her place and say hi!!  This is the award she kindly passed to me:

Photobucket
Now for the criteria:
Rules:

Pass this on to five great blog neighbors
I define a great blog neighbor as someone that consistently comments on your posts and responds to questions or comments that you have.
This is the hardest part for me, since there are soooo many people that are deserving of this award.  I have been lucky to have received this award in the past and have passed it on so am going to pass it on to 5 more of my neighbors (in no particular order):

PK Reeves from Aisle B
Darlyn from darlyn & books
And this morning, what a great way to wake up, I was presented with this award:
Photobucket
Dizzy C from DizzyC’s Little Book Blog, which is a great blog I just found from the Friday Blog Hop, was gracious to pass this on.  I received this award a couple of days ago so I won’t bore everyone again.   It amazes me that no matter how many I get,  I get that warm and fuzzy feeling with each one.  What a fantastic feeling knowing that someone really likes my blog.  So thank you Dizzy C.  And if you haven’t visited her, you really should.  She has a wonderful blog!!

Its another warm day here in New England, and I’m not just talking about the weather.  Yesterday I got that warm, fuzzy feeling yet again, this time Rae from In The Forest Book Reviews, presented me with this award.

Photobucket
It amazes me every time, that to think, just a few months ago, I was wishing I could be a part of this blogging community.  And here, again, one of my blogging buddies thinks that my blog is worthy.  So thank you Rae.  I hope you don’t mind but going to just slash the numbers a bit regarding the criteria in accepting.  The rules are:
So I guess what I need to do now is share seven five things about myself and pass this on to 15  5 blogs I have recently discovered. Hmmm…okay, here goes…
Warning, Warning (here comes the boring part)
  1.  I drink iced coffee year round
  2.  I am usually awake (especially in the summer) around 5:30am and love to listen to the noises outside my window.
  3.  Am not a “watch a movie” person.
  4.  I ask a lot of questions (lol as a few of you know) but believe that is a form of learning.
  5.  I so love being part of this book blogging community.
Now to the 5 blogs I have recently discovered (in no particular order):

  My plans this beautiful Saturday,  is to be laid back and work on a few of my blogging to-do items.  Write some drafts, update a few things,  there is even a little bulb going on for creating a Saturday meme.. we will see if I can bring it together and then introduce it to you and get your feedback.
  What are your plans for today?   Anything special?  Want to share?  Ok…I am off to present awards, get to my lists so that I can get to my reading.  Have a great day!!!!
