I’m pretty flattered right now, not.even.lying! My little blog has been growing consistently these last few weeks and I’m so thankful to all of you wonderful followers! It’s starting to get harder and harder to believe that this many people actually care what I might have to say! Which also makes me think that I need to start coming up with some real material and get better with my pictures! So that leads me to thank 4 wonderful ladies for FIVE, yes I said that right… FIVE blog awards in one week. I decided to just put it all in one long post, so bare with me, this may take a while! Also, please don’t hate me, but I’m not going to nominate anyone right now because I nominated a large group of people not too long ago and I don’t feel like I have enough new ones to nominate, so I’ll wait until the next blog award comes along!

What is your favorite thing to blog about?
This is probably terrible, but I love particular link-ups and find it easy to write for those. Unfortunately writing doesn’t come easy to me although I love writing for the blog, if it weren’t for link-ups though, then I’d love doing recipes and crafts!

I love my Apple iphone, but I can’t stand working on a Mac computer, I’m about a PC!

That it all be a surprise or a scavenger hunt, that’d be fun! Or just take me to Disney for the day!

Who is the most influential woman in your life?

Total morning person!

Shower, I rarely take baths!
Do you sing in the shower or in the car? If so, what’s your favorite song to sing?
Not in the shower, I consider it sometimes, but then think about the movies where other people outside of the bathroom can hear them… so I don’t lol. I definitely sing in the car! Don’t have a favorite song to sing.
What is your favorite guilty pleasure?
Reeses!
Imagine that you could be anyone for an entire day, who would you be and what would you do first?

OH.. And the soggy bread? I DIE. So fuh-reaking gross. Hubs and I both hate it with a passion. Blah.
I’m a morning person too. And I love Mulan. It’s not all about the glitz and glam with her – definitely a good role model IMO.
6 cats.. Wow! I have two dogs. That’s my limit for now. 😉
What was the new pinterest recipe you made? I have so many pinned that I haven’t tried to make yet, haha. I didn’t know you had a dog and 6 cats! Do you have pictures of them up on your blog? Congrats on 100 followers!
it was great getting to know you better! you dont want to LIVE in Germany!!!! truuustt me lol
esp. if you dont know how to speak it or understand it, or if you live in a country area.. its ok to VISIT but after the third week…..lol well I was pulling my hair out! and SIX CATS!!! whew two is enuff for me! hahah
We definitely share the same dream vacation. And I so don’t understand Mac computers, either–a PC is great for me! Congrats on all the awards!
Congrats on growing your blog!! It’s nice to hear your “voice” where are you finding good vegan recipes? Thought about giving it a try but I am afraid I won’t follow thru if things don’t taste good. Kind of have to trick even myself into eating really healthy!
