My special thanks to Rachael at brushneedleandwhisk who has nominated me for One Lovely Blog Award! Rachael received this award herself and has handed the banner on. These things come with gift tags and fine print! (I am reproducing the fine print here for my nominees).
The Rules:
1] Thank the person who nominated you and link back to their blog
2] List 7 random things about yourself
3] Nominate fifteen other blogs
4] Notify the fifteen nominees
5] Put the award logo on your blog.
So here goes!

(I have gone for 13)! Have a look at these sites if you don’t know them. They cover a wide range, and are all Lovely in their different ways. Some are part of my familiar circle and some are relatively new to me too.
Thanks again Rachael! enjoy your holiday.
Congratulations on the award.
