Arte Y Pico Award

GULP! I received this award, called the Arte Y Pico Award (Who thinks up these things?!) from THE Kittie Caracciolo a few days ago.

Here is how it works:
You have to pick 5 blogs that you consider deserve this award for their creativity, design, interesting material, and also contributes to the blogging community, no matter what language.

2) Each award has to have the name of the author and also a link to his or her blog to be visited by everyone. Click on her name above to visit her blog.

There is no way I can just pick 5 people for this--so I am whimping out on this part! I know I would be leaving out tons of people who add so much to the blogisphere so I am choosing to be a conscientious objector.....

But THANK YOU Kittie....I am truly honored.

Tagged!

Can you tell I am catching up from a busy week!?

I was tagged a few days ago!

I have to:
1. Link to the person that tagged you and leave a comment on their blog, so that their readers can visit. Sweet RaeAnne tagged me--she is adorable. She is only 16 years old!! Check out her blog and say hello!
2. Post the rules on your blog.
3. Share 7 Random facts about yourself on your blog.
4. Tag 7 random people at the bottom of your post, linking to their blog. Let each person know by leaving a comment on their blog.

Here are my seven random things about me:
1. I am one of eight children.
2. I love Dt. A & W rootbeer (and Dt. Dr. Pepper, etc.), so much that I would NOT be surprised if dt soda runs through my veins.
3. I used to be addicted to Coke (bawaaa....not the drug...Coke the soda.) I seriously drank about 6 a day in college and would get bad headaches (Caffeine withdrawal) if I tried cutting back. I had to wean myself from that and it was not pretty. (My poor roommates!)
4. I can eat an entire box of Thin Mint Girl Scout cookies in one sitting (and have!)
5. I have a black dot in my left eye (not the pupil, silly...it is another dot -- not quite as big!)
6. I am starting to get grey hairs. (It is NO wonder with my kids (heehee!) The funny thing is that they are not grey--they are WHITE. I have pulled more than I can count so I fear it might be time to start dying it...yipes!)
7. My biggest fear is life is dying before my children will have permanent memories of me.

I am tagging anyone who reads this because I don't want to forget to include anyone who would like to be tagged!

Thanks RaeAnne!
