Playing Tag and Catch Up

Oh my! I've ignored my poor blog for a whole week! Time to catch up.

First of all, to play tag... I've got to say thank you to two of my Pink Sisters from Make Mine Pink who tagged me this week with this lovely award called The Arte y Pico Award which is “given to those who are creative and have a penchant for art.” I feel very blessed and honored by my friends Shell (Michelle) at The Raspberry Rabbits and Inka, of' Inklings Designs . I really appreciate being thought of as worthy of this award. Thank you very much.

(I have to admit though that I'm not very good at other languages so when I told my hubby about my award I called it the Pico de gallo award, which is probably insulting to the originators of this award ... so I hope they have a sense of humor!)

So, now it's my turn to present some awards...

Here are the rules:
1. You have to pick 5 blogs that you consider deserving of this award for their creativity,design, interesting material, and also contribute to the blogging community, no matter what language.
2. Each award has to have the name of the author and a link to his/her blog to be visited by everyone.
3.Each award winner has to show the award and put the name of and link to the blog that presented her/him with the award (I know it says this is a rule , but I know not everyone likes to do this, so I won't be upset if you don't.)
4. The award winner and one who has given the prize have to show the link of "Arte y Pico blog so everyone will know the origin of this award.
5. To show these rules.

Let me see, I have a huge list of fav blogs in m favorites, but some of those people don't know me, so hmmm, should I only award those who know me? Hard to say.. This is probably subconsiously why I ignored my blog this week - it's hard to choose who to honor but I'll pick the cream of the crop!)

So my friends who represent well the description of "those who are creative and have a penchant for art" and who share my sense of humor... are ...

Cindy of Angel Heart Designs

Erica of Meadow Street

Carrie of Noelle Garrett Designs

Carol of Clutter Bug Studio

Theresa of Cottage Violets

There, I did it! I shall reward myself with a large helping of my hubby's newly baked recipe of blueberry crumble! (Pictures to come... it came out so pretty!)
