OMG, I've Been Nominated for the Versatile Blogger Award!!

I know I said I wasn't going to post until March but I've been nominated for an award, The Versatile Blogger Award no less.  


Thank you so much Aagaard Farms!  I love to read other Manitoba blogs to find out what challenges and successes people are having that I can relate to and Aagaard Farms has really been one of my goto resources.  I'm also a loyal follower of Aagaard Farms on Twitter where they're listed as @aagaardfarms.  

Okay, so I have to mention seven random things about me (shouldn't be too hard, my head's full of random thoughts):

1.  I hate wearing high heels and would rather poke my eyes out than clothes shop.
2.  I'm starting a nature club at my daughter's elementary school.
3.  I'm an internet social activist.
4.  I'm a bigger hockey fan than my husband.
5.  I'm the family genealogist having put long lost family members in touch with one another.
6.  My favorite food is a Black Forest cake.
7.  QI is my all time favourite show.


The rules of the Versatile Blogger Award have to be posted and they are:

1.  Add the award to your blog.
2.  Thank the blogger who gave it to you.
3.  Mention seven random things about yourself.
4.  List the rules.
5.  Award to 15 bloggers.
6.  Inform each of those 15 by leaving a comment on their blog.

Here goes, my 15 nominations are:


Thank you all for inspiring me!!

  1. Hi Adele, Thanks so much for Versatile Blogger Award! Just checked the temp in Winnipeg. Blimey! it's a tad cold. Been snowing a bit in London (UK) over the last week, and as always, all sorts of activities and transport come to a standstill as the first flakes fall!. Haven't been out gardening for a week now (due to snow and frost), but have started sowing a few seeds on windowsills and ordering a few more seeds too (just can't help myself).
    Your wood burning stove sounds very cosy and may you enjoy many evenings tucked up reading gardening books and blogs.
    Many thanks again and look forward to reading more post as things thaw out in Manitoba. V.best Naomi
    p.s. Lived in Vancouver for a year in my youth (strangely as possessor of a Canadian passport) so lovely to know blog being read in Canada.

  2. Thanks for the Versatile Blogger Award. I think we all qualify as being versatile - between homemaking, gardening and generally living with this crazy weather.

  6. The weather's going to be pretty mild in the next little while, your reading is probably going to go on the back burner! Best of luck for the growing season ahead.
