Beautiful Blogger Award

Debbie from the fabulously fun Cranberry Fries blog recently tagged me with the Beautiful Blogger Award.


The rules of the award are: 
1. List seven things about yourself. 
2. Link back to the person who gave you the award.
3. Pass the award on to seven bloggers.

Seven things about myself:
1.  I quote Disney movies and The Princess Bride at least once or twice a day.
2.  I am not a fan of condiments.  No ketchup, mustard, or salad dressing for me. 
3.  "I'll take Geektastic for $1000, please Alex."  One of my favorite childhood vacations involved being a part of the studio audience at a Jeopardy taping.  Woot!  #nerdfun
4.  I have never broken a bone. 
5.  I was once in a scary car accident in which our car rolled over twice.  Miraculously, no one  was seriously injured.  But the song Michael Finnegan, which I was singing when we hit the black ice, still makes me feel panicky.
6.  I love Nickelodeon's Avatar: The Last Airbender as much as my children do.
7.  I adore book playlists.  If I am on the fence about whether to buy a book or put it on hold at the library, a great playlist can occasionally be the deciding factor.

Seven bloggers I would like to pass this award along to:
Jenn @ Book Crazy
Karin @ Karin's Book Nook 
Bekah @ Bekah's Bytes 
S.F. @ Wastepaper Prose 
Stacy @ Wicked Walker Reviews 


Happy Reading!  :-)

I thought I had responded to your post, but I guess I didn't. Sorry. ;)

Anyway, I have met so many people that doing like condiments. It's so foreign to me. Do you like salad dressing?

I've never broken a bone either. I'm not looking forward to having it happen. Hopefully, we'll both never experience it.

I definitely agree regarding the broken bones! Let's hope neither of us ever has to experience that. :) I don't like salad dressing, mustard, ketchup, barbecue sauce, sweet & sour sauce, chili-sauce, plum-sauce, Tabasco sauce, A1, or relish. I drink my tea without sugar, and I never sprinkle pepper on anything. Soy sauce, nutritional yeast, & plain table salt are the only three condiments that I enjoy. Basically, I was always the odd one out in a family of sauce & dressing lovers.

Thanks !! CONgrats to you!

No condiments at all? I dont think I could do that. I'm with ya on the no broken bones thing. I use that one a lot when I play two truths and a lie. :) Studio audience for Jeopardy? WaycooL!

Cleverly Inked - You're welcome! And thanks! :)

Debbie - Most of my family agrees with you on the impossibility of going without condiments. My husband is a ketchup fanatic & my stepdad makes and sells his own specialty barbecue & grilling sauces, so I have long been the odd-person-out where condiments are concerned. Yay for no broken bones! I was a huge fan of Jeopardy as a tween & teen and had so much fun attending that taping. :)
