Awards for me?! Really?!

Hey Friends! Guess What?

Mitzi over at ~Southern Style~  was kind enough to pass on two awards to me today!  What a wonderful surprise for me this morning!  I am so blessed that she honored me with these awards today.



Thank you so much, Mitzi! I felt right at home the first time that I visited you.  It must be that wonderful southern hospitality that this Bayou Girl recognized instantly.

Friends, if you haven't visited Mitzi yet, please go over and see her.  I know you will be blessed. Her photography is beautiful, her words are inspiring and I know you will feel encouraged by the peaceful presence in her "home".

So in the spirit of the awards that have been given to me, here are my instructions as I understand them....


"Thank the person who gave the award to you"......  Thank you again, Mitzi!


"Share up to 10 things about yourself. Short & sweet" ......

 1.      I would love to do a tandem skydive someday.
 2.      I love to cook.
 3.      I enjoy growing houseplants and herbs.
 4.      I love to read - lately it has been blogs & not books.
 5.      I am always ready for a road trip.
 6.      I hate hot weather and love fall and winter.
 7.      I love Air Streams & Craftsman Bungalows.
 8.      My toenails are always painted.
 9.      I am learning to knit.
10.     I love all music & love to sing but can't carry a tune!

"Pass the award along to up to 10 bloggers who you have recently discovered and think are fantastic!"  Okay, here goes!

Now I must contact the bloggers that I've chosen and let them know about the award.  I hope they like it as much as I did.  Enjoy your Sunday afternoon and don't forget to go say "hi" to Mitzi.  You'll be glad you did!  Candace~♥

  2. I want to learn to knit and tandem skydive, too! I adore Craftsmans, and had a neighbor who completely restored an AirStream!

  3. Mitzi, I heard that "awe". In fact, I think I probably said the exact same thing when I saw your post this morning about the award. You made my day too, Girl!(((Hugs)))

    Liz, thanks so much for popping in to see me! It appears we have a few things in common. I look forward to getting to know you! I hope you will come back and visit again. Blessings! Candace~♥

  4. Love the list! #4 is exactly where I've been lately, but I've picked up some hefty books to get through (Jane Austen, anyone?:o) I'm looking forward to reading more, so I followed you! ;o)

  5. Hello. Thank you for following me via FF. I am now following you too. I am sorry it took me so long to return the follow. I went to camp this weekend and don't do much blogging there. Congrats on the awards.
