Divine Blog Award

I logged in this morning, bleary eyed and dressed to un-impress in Big R's P.J's to read my daily blog updates and check out what all those fashionistas out there are wearing/coveting/inspired by/you get the idea....and then...BLANK. Power cut. Bloody hell! I hadn't boiled the jug or popped my toast in yet and had to sit there, no coffee, no toast, no Big R (he had gone to work already), no internet, no sun, NO FUN!!! Not the best way to start the day and I figured it was probably going to go all up the wah-zoo from there. I picked up my book and indulged in a glass of cold milk and jam sandwich-not that I could concentrate 'cos I was constantly checking to see if our place was powered up yet. But finally I heard that familiar whizzing and leapt to the laptop...YAY....my world was back on. And there they were, comments on my last blog. Second YAY of the morning-I love gettin' love. Then, the last comment. I find out that I had been nominated for the Divine Blog Award. Third YAY and it isn't even lunch yet!! Turn my frown, upside down, laugh like a clown, going to town *singing*. Being kinda new to this blogging stuff I checked out what this all means, discovered new cool bloggers and more about them.
Big, Big, Big Thank You! to Vanessa at cupcake trash for nominating my blog, it really does mean so much to me (cue music and sideline guy waving me off stage).


Now I have to reveal my Top 5 Guilty Pleasures, nominate 5 other blogs for the award and let them know via comments....hmmm...narrowing down to only 5 G.P's and 5 blogs...

5 GUILTY PLEASURES

1. Intending to make Russian Fudge but always eating the whole can of sweetened condensed milk instead.

2. Shopping at Skylark Boutique in the city.

3. Watching the old TV series, Bewitched because I love Endora's wardrobe and kinda wish she was my nana.


4. Big Eyed Girl art and dolls. Maio art, Blythe dolls and vintage Bradley musical dolls...mmm...


5. Spending my last $30 bucka on Lula Magazine and a choccie fish when I know it was my power bill money.

And in no order, I would like to nominate these lovely bloggers....

5 DIVINE BLOGS

1. FrouFrouu...my inspiration to bite the bullet and start a blog.
2. Macy at The Strychnine Tree...always something quirky goin' on and some kickin' DIY's.
3. Rebecca at The Clothes Horse...lovely photos and her dancin shoes post? Insane.
4. Marcella at Fashion Distraction....dare I say, NZ's Rumi?
5. Krystal at what is reality anyway?...another badass blogger-BBE alert (badass blogger envy)


So hopefully we'll get to learn what makes these bloggers tick when no-one else is watching...jump onto their blogs and see.
