What is the Liebster Blog Award? Yes I googled and this is what it came up with …have no idea if it is true or not.
The Liebster Blog Award is given to up and coming bloggers who have less than 200 followers. “Liebster” is German for “favorite”. This award is the “favorite blog award” then.
The rules for this one state that you answer the 11 questions asked of you by the Blogger who gave you this award.
theinnerwildkat has kindly nominated me for the above Award and Congratulations must go to her fine self, for I enjoy her posts immensely. She is outspoken, outgoing, yet a humble individual at the same time- as most of you probably may know, I sort of accept Awards yet I don’t. Yes it is confusing :-(.
Kitt has written some beautiful things about me and her other nominees.
As my part of acceptance, I do the following as I have done in the past and I hope that this still shows my sincere gratitude for her nominating me.
Kitts nominees are:
Phil– Funny, a bit sarcastic…and pretty cool…for a New Yorker. He’s a new friend with a passion for Speakeasies, watching living, breathing train wrecks and fitness.
Susie– She’s a woman who grabs life by the horns and dances…whether people are watching or not. Even Thor loves this woman!
Austin– My favorite Modern Day Philosopher who has quite the knack for putting a whimsical twist on current events while still making you think. (but isn’t that what Philosophy is all about?)
Rob– He’s blunt, a bit warped (he’s even got a “fan chick stalker diary” and “zombie diary” going on), funny…and very few things are out of bounds with him. It may also explain why he actually had to post a clarification blog for his new followers! He’s also featured a bunch of guest bloggers (including yours truly).
Loni– A wonderful, supportive new friend and author. She always finds time to stop by and give a kind word. Things like that mean so much.
Wordsurfer– A sweet lady who is a lot more courageous than she gives herself credit for. She’s always got a keen observation or a thoughtful comment. I’ve been enjoying getting to know her.
Jen- An empty nester who thinks she’s a “beginner” at poetry…but so far from that. She’s fun, and thoughtful…and full of insight. (Plus, she’s got that awesome Aussie thing going on for her…I’m jealous of her accent and I haven’t even heard her speak.)
CrazyTrainToTinkyTown– Yes, she really is a bit crazy…but in the best possible way! She makes me laugh. Her comments are quirky and full of fun, just like her!
LJ- A wonderfully talented writer friend who has this work in progress that has me completely intrigued. She’s a riot and my sister of the dirty mind. She’s also amazing in the way she supports her friends.
Ray– A new friend I met through Susie, he’s honest and insightful. In a very short time I’ve come to appreciate his reflective nature and his willingness to share.
Jessi– She just released a new book about a sexy Scottish Highlander…Yum! She’s a fun friend who is entertained by the fact that I’m a bit off the wall and you never know exactly what to expect when you stop by and visit me. She also understands that a love of erotic romance (both reading and writing) does not negate my love of God or my faith.
So to Kitt I thank you, to the other nominees, congratulations and I hope that all that follow me, may stalk take a peek at your sites.
Rambly (with a hot Aussie accent I believe) 😉
Hi Mumsy! *waving* Congratulations… It’s my babies 21st today! 🙂 Going out to dinner in a couple of hours! Hugs Paula x
Helloooooo over there – aww thanks babe. Enjoy your babies 21st – time flies past so quickly 😦 I’m sure you will have an exceedingly wonderful time 🙂 xxxx
Thank you! Hugs and lots of them! xx
LOL! Thank you…I had no idea about the under 200 followers part. I don’t think I would have qualified for the award…but the intent behind it was sweet…and sometimes answering random questions can be fun. 🙂
As for your Aussie accent…I’m never going to live that one down, am I? 😉
I just grabbed the explanation from the net so I don’t know it it’s a true account of what a Leibster Award is 😦 The intent of Awards are always sweet and welcomed, I sadly just don’t have the time to answer all the questions 😦 but I like that I can list the others so that other followers may take a peek.
and no honey you aren’t going to live that down 😉
I rarely have time to answer all those questions, either…but I try when I have time. 🙂
Yahhh….wait…you do not have over 200 yet? *grins* … I am almost starting to sound like Amber haha.
Still…congratulations Mumsy.
lol nope 174 I think?? Surprised even of that! 🙂 Thanks KK…yes shades of Amb crept in 😉 xxx
Congratulations on the award 🙂 you deserved it 🙂 🙂
Awww ta RG feel warm and fuzzy with any Award given – but like to share it out in my way, so hopefully that is good yes? *nods* 🙂 x
Kitt – perhaps tonight if you want my answers? I can do them still, but that may not be in keeping with the Award rules as such? xx
Completely deserve the award, Mumsy. I had no idea this award even existed, What? I don’t have 200 followers, that’s a tall order for me 🙂 I think it’s lovely to be able to visit the other sites and get to know some of them too. You know, I love that you’re getting so many awards, you have a way to reaching out. By the way, I have been trying to ‘Like’ your posts but I can’t do it. I will try again though.
xox
