Rewarding Recipe Blogs


I was given this wonderful award by From Misery to Happiness in 365 Days. What an honor! Please take a moment to check out her site.

The rules for this award are to state 10 things that make me happy. Right now I am so happy for all my family and the support we have been given during this difficult time. Rather than list 10 things I am just going to say thank you to the more than ten of you that are praying for us. Your thoughts and prayers mean so much.
I have to pass this award on to ten sites. Since I have a recipe theme this week, I have selected ten great recipe blogs.

Here they are:

Three Awards to Pass On

I feel so honored. I have received three awards this week that I would love to pass to some wonderful blogs.



To accept the "Happy 101 Award" I need to:
1. Acknowledge the person who gave it to me
2. List ten items that make me happy, and
3. Award it to ten other bloggers.

I would like to thank Jumpin Beans for this award.

My father in-law is still getting weaker and weaker. We went to see him yesterday. He wasn’t talking much, couldn’t sit up without help, and ate only small amounts of food. While we were there, I did see a whole lot of love. This award is supposed to be 10 things that make me happy. I hope you don’t mind that I am changing it to Ten Ways I Saw Love This Weekend.

Ten Ways I Saw Love This Weekend

1.My mother in-law helped feed the man she loves and did so with such respect.

2.The nurses that take care of him kissed his forhead when they came to rotate him in his bed.

3.My sister in-law Gina slept on an air mattress in his room so, my mother in-law could go home and get rest. Each of my sister in-laws has been doing this for a few months.

4.My sister in-laws and brother in-law along with my husband and have been rotating who will come into town to help their parents. (My sister in-law Marcia comes for two weeks at a time.)

5.A freezer filled with food each one has made so that my mother in-law won’t have to cook.

6.Text messages flying from one family member to another. It has helped us know how to pray and how he is doing.

7.My twenty three month old throwing his grandfather a kiss and telling him he loves him.

8.My sister in-laws singing and playing with JDaniel to help keep him entertained.

9.The stream of friends that came through to check on my father in-law.

10.My father in-law reaching out his hand for my mother in-law and her hearing her tell him he had quite a grip.

Here are the blogs I am passing this onto:

Living with Fairies

Lemon Drop Pie

Live and Love Out Loud

For Love or Funny

The Practical Mom Guide

Blue Cotton Memory-Six Mom Stages of Raising Boys to Men takes you through survival mom, rock star mom, fading star mom, underground foundation mom, occasional mom and ends with confused mom. Each stage is beautifully painted by her words.

Twinsomnia- Deep Thoughts While Finger painting is a great photo essay on finger painting.
