Award and Give-away!

Thought I'd give you all a break from Italy! Rather than completely follow the rules as provided below, nominating 7 blogs to receive this award, consider yourself Kreative because you are! and simply list 7 things on your blog about yourself that others might find interesting. Post a link back to this blog and leave me a comment on any of the posts about Italy. Why? Anyone who leaves a comment will be given a chance to receive something from me. Right now I have no idea what that might be, but it could be a small quiltie with imagery from Italy. Deadline to do this is the last day of July.

1. Thank the person who nominated you for this award - You will love Marilyn's inspiring blog!

Thank you Marilyn for this honor, I'm touched!

2. Copy the logo and place it on your blog (and it's okay to brag).
3. Link to the person who nominated you for this award. (that would be me, Gail, ExpressionStudio)

4. Name 7 things about yourself that people might find interesting.

1. In the 80's I took aerial photos of the Montery Peninsula for publication in

the Pine Cone. (I got terribly airsick; it took hours to walk it off. But, because

the photos were published I reconnected with my oldest cousin who was passing

through Carmel.)

2. Interviewed Clint Eastwood in the mid 80's when he ran for mayor of Carmel.

Three friends and I were thinking about writing a book on creativity. Clint was

gracious, funny, and flirty. (the book idea fell apart.)

3. I've been a passenger on a Harley.

4. I've seen some of the greatest sights in Europe, but have never been to the Grand

Canyon which is practically in my own back-yard!

5. Over the years I've been to 4 Neil Diamond concerts and 2 Celtic Woman and am

hoping to see Cher and Lord of the Dance before the end of the year.

6. I lived in a rustic cabin in the Big Sur area for nearly 5 years. Chopped wood for

heat and had a large vegetable garden. We didn't have TV or radio and needed to

drive 1/2 a mile on a dirt road to get to the main canyon road and then 4 miles to

Highway 1. It was a 30 minute drive to Carmel so if you ran out of something you

made do! (Now I can't live without AC, the Internet, and multiple TV channels!)

7. If it isn't obvious - I teach myself everything I want to know about!

5. Nominate 7 Kreativ Bloggers (you're all nominated!)
6. Post links to the 7 blogs your nominate. (post your link when you leave a comment

letting me know that you've posted 7 interesting things about yourself.)
7. Leave a comment on each of the blogs, letting them know they have been nominated.

(feel free to either list blogs, #5, or create your own give-away.)

Note: if you don't have a blog you can list the 7 things in under my comments. Also, if

you need directions on how to copy and paste the logo and award info to your blog

feel free to email me: Mizriley2003@yahoo.com

Have fun with this! I look forward to reading your posts!! And remember the give-away!
