The Honest Scrap Award

July 8th, 2009

honest_scrap

Honest scrap award? Huh? When Katie Favazza gave me the award, I was a little confused. The name doesn’t really tell you much. But, after tracking links back through over 50 blogs…I finally found an explanation: “This award is bestowed upon a fellow blogger whose blog content or design is, in the giver’s opinion, brilliant.”

So..thanks Katie!!

Now, onto the rules of how it works:

  1. Thank the person who “nominated” you and link back. {Check}

  2. “Nominate” seven more bloggers to spread the happiness.{see list below}
    1. Brad Marley
    2. Suzanne Broughton
    3. Jon Buscall
    4. Parks Design
    5. Kyle Reddoch
    6. Kneale Mann
    7. Angry Julie Monday

  • Tell ten honest (not business related) things about yourself. {and this is the difficult one, but here you go:}
    1. I am absolutely terrified of clowns.
    2. I haven’t been working on my book because I’m worried about what to do once it’s finished, not because I don’t know how to finish it.
    3. I regret giving up soccer in High School.
    4. I am a complete klutz, and my husband continually threatens to bubble wrap me.
    5. I cried at the end of Harry Potter book 6 and 7. All 3 times I have re-read them.
    6. If I had to choose between never touching a computer or never touching a book, I’d give up my computer.
    7. I have a serious issue with anyone who can not pronounce the words “anyway” or “nuclear” correctly.
    8. But I can not pronounce “forward” correctly – it comes out “Fo-ward”.
    9. I am worried I won’t be a good parent because I am a bit selfish.
    10. After trying both, I firmly believe skiing is a a better sport (and more fun) than snowboarding.

      This is great! I wholeheartedly agree with you re: skiing v snowboarding. I have tried both and just LOVE skiing so much more!

      Also, there are people out there who can’t pronounce ‘anyway’?

      That was a fun entry! From one fellow Harry Potter tear inspired reader to another, I understand. Clowns have never freaked me out as much as say……worms……..but they also don’t exactly bring a smile to my world.
      I love the bubble wrap idea for the klutzes of the world.
