An award from Bella

Thank you Bella

Proving once again that the decision I made to be myself when I started writing this blog 23 months ago was the right one, I have been awarded the "You Make My Day" award by Bella. For those of you who haven't been reading my blog all along, Bella is the one who urged me to try boiled peanuts last fall when I drove my in laws to Florida. For the record I liked them. If you don't make Ciao Bella a regular stop during your travels in the blogosphere, I suggest you do. Get to know Bella and see why she is such a good friend.

I will pass this along to the following bloggers:

Daisy has been a definite bright spot in my comments sections. Her blogs are a combination of humor photography and her insights. Note to Bella:Daisy is another good blogger from the Buckeye State.

Since I was bestowed this award by a nurse, I will now give this award to another nurse. Jessica, of Five Pines fame, is very deserving of this award. Her blog centers around her love for her family, her home, and her love of nature. Jessica is also a proud band mom, who is sure to be posting pictures of her daughter, Jordan, as she begins marching within the next 1-1/2 months.

Michelle, of Rusin Roundup fame, has been one of my friends for awhile. She is part of the Terre Haute gang, a tight knit group of bloggers who form a very bright spot in blog world. She currently sharing her vacation with all who want to see. Good stories, good photos.
