I'd like to thank the Academy...

I was going to wait until I had reached a major milestone in my (short-lived) blogging career - maybe after 100 posts, a year of blogging, or a significant amount of followers, but the blogging world has been so good to me that I simply couldn't wait any longer. I want to thank all you amazing readers who somehow stumbled upon this blog of mine and for all the comments and support you give me.

Like I said, my blog is basically a newborn - I haven't even reached the six month mark, but I feel so  fortunate to have had some of my work featured on some incredible blogs. For those of you reading by email or in a reader, here's a screen shot of what I'm referencing.



DIY by Design, House of Hepworths and Beneath my Heart all featured my Mudroom, my Crispy Onion Baked Potatoes Recipe was featured by Serenity Now, and my Knock Off Pottery Barn Eagan Mirror was featured by Thrifty Decor Chick.

Imagine my utter surprise, shock, and amazement when I received an email from Jessica at become.com that her editor chose me to receive an "Editor's Pick Award"!! Like, pick-my-jaw-off-the-floor shocked. The website has links to niche blogs that talk about product reviews, tips, ideas and buying guides for everything from home and garden, baby gear, pet care and health/beauty. (No, I'm not getting paid or perked for mentioning them, I just wanted to give them a little shout-out to thank them.)

Enough with the rambling - I just want to thank you all again. I never dreamed that I would be so lucky and that others would actually find my projects as great and fun as I have creating them.

Just to close with one fun thought:
