Liebster Blog Award!!!
Okay I have to admit I've been coveting this award. Why? Because Liebster is a German word and I am 3/4 German and have learned some of the language. So you can imagine my joy when I discovered that Morgan from Nothing Better Than A Book (great name btw) had awarded it to me! Thank you so much Morgan!
Liebster means sweetheart in German and this award is given to bloggers with less than 200 followers.
Here are the rules:
1. Each person must post 10 facts about themselves
2. Answer 10 questions the tagger has given you and give 10 questions for the people you’ve tagged.
3. Choose 10 people and link them in your post.
4. Tell them you’ve tagged them.
5. Remember, no tag backs.
Ten Random Things...
1. I love pretty book covers. Especially ones with girls in pretty dresses-awesome!
2. I get giddy when books come in the mail for me-though this is slowly dying as I keep getting more books to review and it's becoming mire common place.
3. I tend to baby my cats and talk to them.
4. I give my electronics names from movies and TV shows. So far I've had: Brego, Aragorn, Gibbs, Ducky, Sciuto, McGee, Farnsworth, and Tesla. There were a few others but I lost track.
5. I love yogurt covered raisins but otherwise hate raisins.
6. I love crocheting.
7. I LOVE the movie Seven Brides for Seven Brothers and I never get tired of watching it!
8. I'm horrible at phone convos but love chatting online
9. I'm horribly shy and hate going to new places.
10. I really do not like my full name: Abigail Lee. I was going to just be Abby but my mom had a friend named Gail so she added that and I got my middle name from my Aunt who was born in the same month.
