Brillante Blog Award
Aug 7th, 2008 by Selina
Note: In my previous post below, I mentioned the next entry would be related to the poll topic (eggs). It certainly will be shortly! This entry is a mini spontaneous detour…
I started to write about food outside of work for genuine gratification and recreation. It has been about two months since my first introductory post, and I am very pleased to have a handful of readers! Comments and feedback have been very exciting to read, and I truly appreciate every single one of them because it turns into motivation to continue coming up with unique topics and recipes related to food.
This leads to my sincere thanks to Aggie from Aggie’s Kitchen who passed on my very first blog award for Let’s Chow!:
Exciting stuff. Grazie mille, Aggie! To reciprocate the generosity, I too will pass on this award to some cool food bloggers I have been following, using these six simple rules:
- Link to the person who tagged you.
- Post the rules on the blog.
- Write six random things about yourself.
- Tag six people at the end of your post.
- Let each person know they have been tagged by leaving a comment on their blog.
- Let the tagger know when their entry is up.
As per number 3, here are some Selina factoids:
- I am a huge gymnastics fanatic, and I have been following the sport since I was a child. I had the chance to compete in high school gymnastics and also teach children for a couple years. When it comes to Nationals, Worlds, Olympic Trials, and the Olympic Games, I am glued to the TV. I used to tape record competitions beginning with 1992 through 2004 (yes, VHS) and watch them repeatedly. Now a days, DVDs can be purchased and clips can be watched on YouTube and NBColympics.com!
- One of my phobias is to be followed or when people walk behind me (dragging shoes, floppy flip flops, and the like).
- I have a love-hate relationship with onions. I love them in most soups, stews, salsa, and sauces, but I truly hate eating them raw in sandwiches, or in anything with large chunks of onion.
- I am obsessive compulsive about recycling and reducing waste and energy usage.
- I prefer snowboarding to skiing, hands down.
- I can eat oatmeal every day of the week and not get tired of it.
Now it’s my turn to tag!
- Amy at Delicious By Nature
- Bridgett at La Bella Cook
- Authors at Tasty Meals At Home
- Norman at Green Avocado
- Alex at Just Cook It!
- Jescel at Spice of Life
Cheers,
Selina



Congrats again!
I too am obsessive compulsive about recycling and reducing energy and waste usage…I guess that is something good to be O/C about right?!
Have a great weekend and enjoy the Opening Ceremonies tonight! (if you are going to watch!) : )
Congratulations on a well deserved award! I really appreciate the tag and thank you for visiting my blog! As you, I appreciate the feedback and advice.
I think being obsessive about recycling is a good thing and more people should at least try, right? I have yet to try snowboarding but I love watching them in Lake Tahoe, it looks like so much fun.
Thanks again, Selina
Thanks for the link. I’ve added you to my Blogroll as well. Keep up the good work!
Hey, Selina.. thank you for the tag and for visiting my blog. Everybody should begin recycling. I’m with you on this… :o)
Congrats and thank you very much!
Finally got round to passing this on. :0)
