When Spring Temperatures Rise, I Get a Sunshine Blogging Award.

I’m tickled to announce that dear friend and sister Wild Rose Press author, Calisa Rhose, has awarded me and several other deserving recipients with the Sunshine Award! I met Calisa when she sold her first book, HOME our shared publisher last year. She’s a kind and very talented writer and has an amazing blog I’ve been invited to many times. She deserves this award and I’m honored she passed it on to me.

The Sunshine Award is a lovely sunny flower that bloggers give to other “bloggers who positively and creatively inspire others in the blogosphere”.

Thank you for your thoughtful gift, Calisa!

Here are my answers to the questions:

Favorite Color: Pink, lavender, aqua, red. OK, anything but tan and brown.

Favorite Animal: Cats, Giraffes and Koala Bears

Favorite Number: 3

Favorite Non-alcoholic Drink: The cappuccinos Calvin makes me every afternoon. He whips the milk until it gets frothy.

Facebook or Twitter: Both, though I don’t use either enough.

Your Passion: Writing.

Giving or getting presents: “Giving. That’s not to say I don’t like to receive! I just like to watch someone’s face when they open a present from me” (I copied this verbatim from Calisa. She voiced the sentiment so well).

Favorite Day: Any day I get to see one of my six grandchildren.

Favorite Flowers: White tulips, purple lilacs and peach or pink roses.

As with most awards, the Sunshine Award comes with a few simple rules:

(1) Thank the person who gave you the award in your blog post.
(2) Do the Q&A above
(3) Pass on the award to 3-5 deserving and inspiring bloggers, inform them and link to their blogs.

And these are the 4 fantastic bloggers I’m tagging for this award (Now, I’m off to tell them, so maybe they’ll have posts up in a few days. If not, at least you can look around some terrific sites!):
