Finally, the day you’ve all been waiting for! It’s Awards Day!
First of all, my book club deserves a special award. Because of the Booktique, I’ve met some wonderful women that I would not have met otherwise and read some great books that I would not have read otherwise. The grapefruit beer I drank last night while discussing books also deserves an award. It was very citrus-y!
For deciding to stay at home last night instead of going to a work-related, my husband Ed gets an award. He may not wash the pots and pans after dinner, but he is very supportive in all that I do; from book club to blogging to teaching preschool. Thanks, honey!
To my two little girls, who are the sweetest little girls around, I give an award for just being themselves. They are going to grow up really fast (everyone keeps telling me this!) and I already can’t believe that Lily is 9 and Emmy is 6! They make me laugh and do their homework. What else could I ask for? (Besides clean rooms, I mean.)
I also think that two of newer readers deserve an award; Tamara from Tamara (like) Camera and Janine from Janine’s Confessions of a Mommyoholic have become two faithful commenters ever since we connected last summer! Thank you, girls!
Two of my long time readers, Debby and Mara, also deserve awards! Debby introduced me to Mara, and we have been reading each other’s blogs forever! It’s nice to have such good online friends.
Finally, Gretchen definitely deserves a slice of pie for keeping The Spin Cycle spinning! I’m honored to be her Spin Cycle partner. It’s my favorite meme in the whole blogosphere!
What awards are you handing out today? Link up below or tell us in the comments!
Love the awards you gave. I would give my book club an award too for introducing me to new books. This month we are reading Longbourn.

I haven’t heard of that book! We are looking for a new one to read, so I’ll have to check it out. Do you have any other recommendations?
Ginny Marie recently posted…Slice of Pie Awards!
Yes. I just read Me Before You by JoJo Moyes and The Rosie Project by Graeme Simsion. They are both good reads.

Thank you for the shout-out! I’m in good company. I learned some of my great commenting etiquette from Janine. And I believe we make it count because we enjoy visiting your blog!
