Awards! and Tagged!

I received a few rewards, but didn't get a chance to thank everyone.. thanks! Sorry, about this really long post, but here we go..

Thanks Shari from A whisk blog for

I've decided to pass this award to bloggers who have seriously always made my day whenever I stop by their blogs.

Adam from baking with dynamite. He's just too awesome! I can't never stop laughing whenever I drop by Adam's blog. Seriously, where does he come up with all those jokes?

Carla from chocolate moosey. She is always there to listen to me stress and ramble on about stuff.. haha I love how she always cooks such delicious meals for dinner instead of settling for college food.

Dee from choos and chews. She is one amazing writer. Her wit totally shines through her posts and is always entertaining. She is really encouraging and kind.. I always look forward from hearing from Dee.

Liz from veggiegirlvegan. She was actually the part of the reason I got over my fear and started a blog. When I first started reading blogs, there was always a nice and encouraging comment form veggiegirl. My first comment was from her! Her veganized and now gluten free baking (not to mention her multitasking) always amazes me.

Pamela from cookies with boys. I love her stories about her boys and her husband going to the gym. She's always baking yummy cookies!

And if you're still with me, I've also been tagged by Carla and Silverrock.

7 things about me..

1. I've fractured 3 bones (left wrist, right wrist and right foot) and they've happened 6 years after another. Hopefully I won't break anything when I'm 23!

2. I am really shy.

3. I love trying new foods, give me anything and I'll eat it.

4. I get stressed way too easily (if you havn't figured that one out already!)

5. I love the sound of chocolate chips pouring into a mixing bowl.

6. I have a horrible sense of direction and would be lost, literally without a GPS.

7. I am obsessed with figure skating. They should really broadcast it more and it is a sport!

I guess since I was tagged twice I share another 7 things.

1. I love apples. I eat like 3 a day!

2. I love grocery shopping.

3. I love the smell of new cars. It's all chemical, but it's so yummy.

4. I've gained 5 pounds since I started blogging and at 5'2, that is a lot!

5. My favourite flavour of icecream is vanilla.

6. I have an obsession with cereal, especially Quaker's oat squares. The last time I went to Michigan, I bought a box and suprisingly, it tastes different.

7. I love holiday anything, commericals, music, Christmas trees.. I can never get too much!

  12. Haha forgot to comment on your random things. I also get lost, usually coming home from places. Grocery shopping does excite me more than it should haha I am also shy and the sound of chocolate chips is music to any baker's ears.
