..................
Gisela, what an amazing surprise! Thank you so much for your kindness! I am very honored and grateful that you have nominating me for Thinking Bloggers Award!
..........
Now I must pass it on to 5 others blogs. It was not easy nominating only 5 blogs … so many wonderful blogs I love and enjoy to visit often! Believe me, I spent all day long to come up with 5 nominations for the Thinking Bloggers Award. You just can look at my links on the side bar and you can figure how difficult this task was! I truly enjoy ALL of my links. YOU ALL have many things I love and enjoy, many issues interesting and intelligent to read about. So I am nominating the following 5 blogs I visit quite often (in no particular order), but I really would like to choose many more blogs for this Award...
..............
Addenda: Here in Brazil we say that to choose someone in some contest is to dress a "saia justa", (tight skirt), that means a really difficult task. So, I really must to say that in such contest maybe someone is going to feel left out but with this nominating I don't want to hurt anyone's feelings. I truly enjoy ALL of my links. I LOVE YOU ALL and YOU ALL have something enjoyable, interesting and intelligent to read about.
............
1) HERE IN THE HILLS - Location: Los Angeles, California, USA. I love to visit Naomi’s blog everyday. Here in the Hills was one of the first blog I visited when I was new to the blogosphere. Her blog is very beautiful, intelligent and touchy. Naomi is a great composer, lyricist, singer, painter and she also writes plays. Her photos are always beautiful and Naomi shares with us her amazing memories and stories, wonderful photos of her lovely family and friends, her adorable kitty named Sweetie and her amazing cactus garden.
..............
2) IMAGINE WHAT I’M LEAVING OUT – Location: North Carolina, USA. Judy, aka Kenju, had another great blog, JUSTASKJUDY, now deactivated, but you can enjoy it's archives. I enjoy so much to visit Judy’s blog. Judy is a talented florist and she has a wonderful taste for flowers and arrangements. Her photos are just beautiful, too. Judy's blog is very witty, funny and also touchy. Her creativity never ceases to amaze me!
