Of Mailbox Monday and Blog Award

Today is a happy, happy day for me because of two things: 1) a blog award and 2) pressies, both from wonderful book blogger friends.


A Blog Award
Sandy Nawrot of You've GOTTA read this gave me The "Uplifting Blogger" Award and I'm so thrilled to receive it! Thank you, Sandy! She has a great sense of humor (you've GOTTA visit her blog!) and she always leaves the most thoughtful comments.

Now, I have the good fortune of knowing many uplifting bloggers and I would I like to mention them here (in no particular order):



  1. Melody @ Melody's Reading Corner
  2. Julia @ Julia's Books Corner
  3. Wendy @ Musings of a Bookish Kitty
  4. Vivienne @ Serendipity
  5. Barbara H. @ Stray Thoughts
  6. Kathy @ Bermudaonion's Weblog
  7. Beth @ Beth Fish Reads
  8. Kathleen @ Boarding in my Forties
  9. Carol @ Carol's Notebook
  10. Dar @ Peeking Between the Pages
  11. Diane @ Bibliophile by the Sea
***

Mailbox Monday. This meme is hosted by Marcia at The Printed Page. I get to participate again this week (YAY!) because the package from Melody arrived today! She sent me two books (one I won at her book giveaway, and the other one is a bonus!), AND a Christmas card AND a super cute bookmark. Thank you so much, Melody!

  1. Fishing for Bacon by Michael Davis (from the giveaway)
  2. One True Thing by Anna Quindlen (the bonus)
Melody is very thoughtful because she sent me the Anna Quindlen book that's been on my wish list for the longest time. I can finally drop it from my list. Thank you again, Melody. God bless you!

  17. Thanks so much for the award! This is what I get for being busy and falling behind in my blog reading.

    I haven't read One True Thing, but I used to read the author's columns in the New York Times back when she worked there.
