Winning.... Versatile Blogger Awards

Good Friday my friends. This week has just been bursting with positive energy and love. My event Tuesday was a big success! People were raving about our food which was such fabulous news. I'm still beaming from the excitement As well the other day I was awarded the Versatile Blogger award from a very special and faithful reader named Julie - her blog is called Burnt Carrots and I'm also a big fan ;) Thank you Julie for this honor. 


The Versatile Blogger awards is a wonderful example of how the food blogging community really supports and encourages each other. We are all obviously inspired by similar things and each others way of presenting those things becomes a fresh way for us to see a topic from someone else's perspective.


I'm truly honored and thrilled to be the recipient of such an award. It's so nice to be recognized by your peers. Especially by peers who only know you by your work. As an artists we always critique works by saying "it really speaks for itself" This idea really resonates within the concept of a blogging award that aims to pay it forward.


Like winning Miss America or valedictorian, there are some things required by the recipient of the award. The Versatile Blogger asks for three in no particular order.

1. Admit 7 things about yourself that many people do not know
2. Pass on the award to 15 other food blogger (making sure to provide a link so others can find them too)
3. Thank the person who gave you the award.

1. I'm actually a visual artist - classically trained with a Fine Arts degree from Concordia University with a Master in Painting. 

2. I'm highly allergic to cats however I can't bear to live with one or two furry friends in my home. 

3. Totally addicted to reality tv. The Real housewives of anything, Survivor, and obviously anything  on The Food Network. 

4.  I take a cooking class in every Country that I visit
5. A psychic once told me I'd be famous some day... I really want to be a brand! Books, shows, products you name it. 
6. Being naked is one of my favorite past  times - if you've ever gone on vacation with me you know this. 

 7. I direct a National Canadian sports show called The Rugby League Show on SportsNetworld
