There's something about beach stripes that says "Summer".
{Hands up if you just read that as "beach strips..." If you look closely, you'll see our kitty is wearing no clothes. Shameful.} As it's winter here, it's kind of nice to imagine making off with that towel and deck chair and finding a sunny spot, but that would force one to disregard the seductively half-open door. Decisions, decisions. And while we ponder our conundrum, please allow me to pose for a brief interlude...
I'm honoured to receive The Versatile Blogger Award from leOpard13, whose
Lazy Thoughts from a Boomer is an intelligent and far-from-lazy blog that I thoroughly recommend to you. We met at
PopCultureNerd's place, and I'm very chuffed to be included amongst his awardees. Thank you, leOpard13! In addition to thanking leOpard13 for demonstrating his discerning taste, I need to let you know seven things about me, as well as passing the award on. Here goes:
- I have a sack of almond meal in the pantry and several macaron recipes but have not yet attempted any. I find myself sadly lacking in patience and candy thermometers.
- I once played the harpsichord for half of Handel's Messiah from Scratch and it takes a lot of pluck to do that.
- I have 29 rolls of ribbon at the ready for any kind of gift-wrapping emergency.
- Yoga is my sport of choice {though my Olympic dream fades with every passing four years}.
- I'm tempted to migrate north for the winter but I'd miss home too much {and a number of ducks I know don't recommend it}.
- I'll happily sign a petition to have chocolate officially recognised as a food group.
- I think I'm indecisive but I'm not quite sure...
So rather than trying to choose from all of the outstanding blogs I love: if I follow your blog, you're welcome to take this award and do a happy dance. Yes, I just ducked out of that one. Call me "chicken" and I'll be plucked
{just prior to making the shortest recorded attempt at flying north}, but don't worry, I'll be back by Friday.
