The Versatile Blogger Award

Thanks to my friend Lisa over at Little Homestead on the Hill, Neighborly Place has won it's first blog award- "The Versatile Blogger Award". Blog Awards are special to us bloggers as it means someone is actually reading what we write, and liking it. Thank-you Lisa for bestowing this award on my web-site.

I enjoy these awards as they promote interaction between bloggers and their readers. I do so enjoy it when I receive comments on my posts, and try to let other bloggers know when I really enjoy their posts too! That being said, here goes:

The Versatile Blogger Award:

Here are the RULES for the Versatile Blogger Award:

1. Add the award to your blog.

3. Mention seven random things about yourself.
4. List these rules.

Here are SEVEN random things about me...

1. I'm quiet but wish I could be more "vibrant".

2. I love ice cream.

3. If you are on "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire" and are using a help-line to call a friend, don't even think of calling me if the question is related to tv or movies stars.

4. I love to go for walks with my dogs.

5. I must be related to Dr. Doolittle at some point in my genealogy, as I surround myself with animals and have since I was a child.

6. I grew up on the island of Montreal in Quebec in the suburbs but ever since I could remember I wanted to live on a farm.

7. I'd much prefer to curl up with a book at home then go to a movie theater.
