A very dear blogging friend, fullet at Secret Forest, gave this award to me and I consider it a great honor. He states that this award is given to blogs that make you happy. You should list ten things that make you happy and then pass the award on to ten blogs that make you happy. Several of the blogs that fullet listed are my favorites, as well, so I won't list them and I won't select Secret Forest though I find great delight in his blog and his friendship. I only regret that we did not meet when I was on his doorstep in Barcelona last October - as I may never have the opportunity again. I hope, if he wins the Spanish lottery, I will, at least, see him in San Francisco!
Ten ( of many ) things that make me happy:
-My three sons ( as long as they are not nagging me to exercise )
-Eating at American Sushi House in Pacifica, CA, Manivanh Thai Restaurant in San Francisco, CA, Tutto Pasta and/or Zucchero in Miami, FL
-Being with the "queens" or other dear friends
-Cruising the seven seas
-Travel
-Sony Holland, singing jazz, especially live, accompanied by Jerry Holland on the guitar
-A good book or movie
-Good wine that doesn't cost a fortune
-Letting people know that I love them
-Writing - my blog, poetry, letters
Blogs that make me happy ( several that fullet listed but I am choosing other so as not to be repititious ) -
