"I have nominated you for a blog award."
Probably the best comment you could receive on your blog, right??
I was very excited, I mean me, a blog award! I have only been rambling on here for 6 months - really an award?
Well ........
A lovely wee logo but what does it mean?
I was nominated by Miya Loves a pretty blog following the Life, Loves & Likes of a blooming beauty. She has beautifully outlined the rules of the award. I have to answer some questions & pass it on. Right.
I was then also nominated by Teaching with a Fashion a fashion loving third grade teacher. On her blog she explains the origins are a mystery but that Liebster means "favourite" so it's like nominating your favourite blog.
Great. It's an award nice award from where, who knows but pass it on to your favourite people.
What a lovely idea!! The cynical me just couldn't rest with that so off to google I go!
1,690,000 results!!
WOW I'm in good company with this blog award
Okay so the dictionary I looked up said Liebster was German & definitely a word of endearment.
So ............
I accept!!
