Cherry on Top

The beautiful Clara over at Seekingclarav tagged me in the Cherry on Top Award. I was so pleased to discover this! I came across Clara’s blog through Stefanie Wilder Taylor’s Don’t Get Drunk Fridays. Hers is one of the few blogs that I subscribe to via email, rather than in Google Reader. Sometimes, you want certain items to stand apart from the crowd, well, because they do.

Anyhoo, onto the Cherry on Top:

1) Thank the person who gave this to me: Thank you, Clara!

2) Copy and insert award into post and on blog. Done and done!

3) Name three things you love about yourself. Here’s mine:

• I love my sarcasm.
• I love my new found positive world. Lately it’s been crushing the ol’ negativity in a one-on-one match.
• I love, love my always-on-point style sensibility.

4) Post a photo that you love.

This is a photo of my niece, captured by my sister. I love that my sister has taken an interest in photography. I always admire hobbies. She’s getting better and better, I bet she even read the manual that comes with her camera. I like to think of this as her Mona Lisa. Check out Ava’s smirk. If you know her, it’s clear that that this is definitely an almost smile. She was probably about to say something like, “Moooommy NO, I am eating my sandwich.” Even though she really did want to have her photo taken anyway.

5) Tag 5 people you wish to pass this award on to:

(in no particular order. and mostly just because i want to hear their answers/want to force them to do number three because it feels good*)

• Lisa @ Seeking Elevation

*thank goodness the what you like about yourself part wasn’t the second item on the list. wink.
