Yesterday, I was delighted to find that I had been nominated for the Liebster Award by Chaos with a Curve. Thanks so much to them for this awesome recognition! I have seen it a few times before and knew that it was basically to promote small blogs. I love this idea, working together to grow everyone's viewership, so great! I did a little research and came across the blog Lorraine Reguly's Life, which outlines a basic history on the Liebster Award and refines the rules a bit (which have changed A LOT). Anyway, below is all the info one needs to keep passing on the love.
The Rules:
1. Acknowledge the person who nominated you.
2. Share 11 random facts about yourself.
3. Answer 11 Liebster questions given to you by the nominator.
4. Nominate 11 other bloggers who have under 1000 followers (I changed this as it was hard to find!), I must admit that I had trouble finding the number of followers, so I just relied on the number of likes each blog had on Facebook. I hope that doesn't stray too much from the goal...
5. Come up with 11 questions for your nominees.
6. Notify the bloggers whom you have nominated. (Note: You cannot nominate the person who nominated you.)
Random Facts:
1. I can touch my tongue to my nose.
2. I am the 2nd youngest of 5 immediate siblings, 3rd youngest including 4 step-siblings.
3. I have 16 nieces and nephews on my husband's side alone.
4. I hate having cold feet at night.
5. My favorite color is green.
6. If given the opportunity, I would leave tomorrow and move to Italy.
7. When planning my meals each week, at most, I only make 3 recipes I have tried before.
8. I know how to drive a stick shift car.
9. There was no sugar in my house until I was about 12 (we used honey).
10. If I could pull of jet black hair, I would.
11. At one point in my childhood, we moved 10 times in 9 years.
