The Season of Giving – Awards
By Judy Berman
A belated thank you to three bloggers who nominated me for awards in November and December. I’m honored by their thoughtfulness, and hope they’ll forgive me for breaking the rules in passing on these awards.
* Mark Bialczak, a longtime friend, of http://markbialczak.com/ nominated me in November for the Versatile Blogger award. I love his stories about family, music, movies and Syracuse where I lived before moving to Florida. I’m nominating him for the Very Inspiring Blogger Award.

She shares wisdom, philosophies,natural recipes, art and photography on her blog. I’m nominating her for the Versatile Blogger Award.

Oooh, looking forward to checking your links out Judy! A wonderful way to give over the Christmas season. Congratulations to you and all your recipients.
Kate, I think you’ll find that all three bloggers are a great read and have diversified interests. They say it’s better to give than to receive. In this case, they’re right. 😉
Hearty congratulations, Judy! Well deserved.
Happy New Year!
Thank you, Marilyn. Happy New Year to you as well.
Indeed it’s a season to be thankful and rejoice. Congratulations! Thanks for sharing your world with us.
I appreciate the view into your world as well, Island Traveler. Thank you.
Congratulations, Judy. Your blog is one of my favorites.
Thank you, Charles. That means a lot to me. 😉
Many congratulations Judy!
Thank you, Madhu.
Your name is synonymous with awards. I’ve notified Merriam-Webster. : )
Not true, but thank you. I actually think I’m going to take a hiatus on awards unless it’s the Oscar, or the Emmy, or the Pulitzer Prize, or the BIG ONE. 😉
