Stylish Blogger Award




THANK YOU!




Maureen over at eclecticrevisited chose my blog for stylish blog award.
 Thank You, I appreciate the award. To pass the award on you must list 7 things about me.
Passing the torch to 10 new blogger (new to me)

So, Here Goes:

1. I am a glass half full kind of gal, preferably stemless red wine glass that is.

2. I have a passion for four legged friends, understand them and have been drawn to them ever since I could walk. My first pony was given to me when I was knee high to about five, maybe a little younger though. They still get me, the nape of their necks, smell of the tack and the feeling of flight...nothing like it!

3.Not to forget or by any means underestimate my own little pet. My friend and comrade Derby the Border Terrier, though small he is sturdy and spry. Reminds me of the equine, love him in a sweater or blanket coat, carries himself in such a regal way and is very sensitive.

4. Tactile. It must "feel" good. It can look great on & off but if it does not feel good, then I will never wear it!It does not have to be cashmere, a cotton soft T will do!

5. Humility. For this I thank my better half. A reality check is just the thing we need sometimes to keep us on track and set our feet back on the ground. For that I am thankful and extremely appreciative.That is really said for all family members, humble way to live.
Unis pour la vie!

6. Paper. Very traditional, yet so modern. I have a weakness for a well written letter, a great worn logo or a crackled and worn piece of stationary.





7. Raspberries, especially those covered with chocolate! For that matter, let's throw orange in the mix as well! Alone they are wonderful, but covered in a decadent chocolaty glaze, well.......an entire new dimension.

Thanks Maureen;
Don't let the list fool you. I grew up in the city, but always had one foot planted in the country! My dad, grand dad and his dad were all ranchers. So learning to ride was a nessessary task, I just actually enjoyed it and it stuck!
These were new to me bloggers, though maybe not to others,
Anyhow, thanks for including me in your list!

Wow - Thank you so much for including me on your list.

I'm a big animal lover too. I'm a city girl but I think I would have loved growing up on a farm or a ranch...maybe in my next life. :)
