The lovely and talented proprietress of City Girl Lifestyle has bestowed upon me my very first blog award – the MeMe Blog Award! City Girl and I go way back – back to law school, in fact, and I am blessed to have her and her husband as friends. Her blog is absolutely inspiring – a mix of beauty tips, fantastic recipes, ruminations on urban living and so much more – and I’m honored that she thought of me. Thanks, City Girl!
The rules of the MeMe Blog Award are twofold: first, I have to write seven things about myself, and second, I have to pass the award on to seven blogs. So, first, seven things about me, and I’ll try not to make them food-related, since my tastes in food are probably already abundantly clear on this blog…
1) I used to be a piano teacher.
2) My favorite class in law school was labor law, but “Law and Literature” was a close second.
3) I participated in a foreign exchange program in Germany when I was 16.
4) I saw a page of Jane Eyre written in Charlotte Bronte’s own hand at the British Library and almost fainted.
5) I adore the Harry Potter books, and I have tickets to see the sixth movie on opening night.
6) To relax, I like to play Bach and Chopin on the piano.
7) My favorite movie is “Bringing Up Baby.”
And now, seven inspiring food blogs that I love to read, written by seven gifted foodies:
1) Good Things Catered
2) Joelen’s Culinary Adventures
3) Proceed With Caution
4) Tide and Thyme
5) Annie’s Eats
6) Brown Eyed Baker
7) This Little Piggy Went To Market – although the lovely B is on hiatus right now, her blog is still up with all of her yummy recipes, and this is my way of telling B that I love her!
These ladies all post yummy recipes, and they all inspire me, so passing on this award is my way of telling them that I’m reading their blogs and I think they are all wonderful!

Thank you so much for the award! You’re such a sweetheart and I’ll miss your posts on the Nest (darn work getting in the way!) I love that you used to be a piano teacher – me too, after playing for 20+ years I had to stop since my patience ran thin. Interesting you like labor law as well, since I use that a lot in my corporate life. Thanks again for the award and reading my blog… and you keep up the great work too!
Aww! You are so sweet! I’m flattered, so thank you. Also, when you comin out to visit me, girl! 🙂 We can totally cook up some yummies together!! 🙂
Thank you so much! This is my first time too! 😀
