We interrupt this regularly scheduled dog art blog to announce that the fabulous Melissa Langer of PugNotes has tagged me with the Thinking Blogger Award. Melissa states ” I always learn something new about art and the world when I visit Moira’s wonderful blog.”
Thank you so much Melissa. That means a lot coming from truly one of the most creative and inquisitive minds I’ve encountered in the blogosphere. Really, if it’s crafty, Melissa has done it or is about to take a course next week. She blows my mind!
Here are the rules attached to these awards:
1. You must write a post with links to 5 blogs that make you think.
2. Acknowledge the post of the award giver.
3. Optional: Proudly display the ‘Thinking Blogger Award” with a link to the post that you wrote.
4. Tell the award winners that they won by commenting on their blogs with the news.
The Five Blogs That Make Me Think:
1. Answer Girl – makes me think I will never read as many books as my cousin Clair Lamb has already re-read. And it makes me think, I will never be without a good book, since Clair’s recommendations are always 100% excellent!
2. Wendy Brandes Jewelry – makes me think blogs are better when you truly express all facets of yourself. Jewelry, fashion, Medieval Queens, dogs, party pics, SEO strategies, and curious obsessions with fish feet, butt bows, and CoCo, Ice-T’s wife all co-exist seamlessly in Wendy’s world. If you stop by her blog be prepared to become one of her peeps. Her writing is completely addictive. (Wendy is excused from having to tag 5 more bloggers because she is continually being tagged and I know she’s already won the Thinking Blogger’s Award, probably more than once.)
3. Post Secret – reminds me how complex, clever, and creative people are. Each post card could inspire a great short story, novel, indie film, psychoanalytical dissertation or air tight restraining order.
4. Ping Mag – Makes me think I have Japanese DNA in my system. I can lose myself there for hours. Everything is beautiful at Ping!
5. FFFFound! – Agggh! I think I’ve been meaning to join this brilliant site for months. Description: “FFFFOUND! is a web service that not only allows the users to post and share their favorite images found on the web, but also dynamically recommends each user’s tastes and interests for an inspirational image-bookmarking experience!!”You must visit it to get the full experience. Truly genius!
