Thank You VP for the E.

VP of Veg Plotting honored me with the E for excellence blog award. How sweet she is. Please be sure to visit her blog. How to give a cat a pill is quite priceless. In accepting this award I have to pass it on to ten other blogs. Here are my choices. I know some of you have already received this, but it's my turn and I am doing it my way - Imagine that.


First to Just Jack My sister's boy and the cutest baby ever. Dee at Red Dirt Ramblings For getting me into this mess. Dee encouraged me to join Blotanical. I have had so much fun and cyber met so many other bloggers. Her site is beautiful. Sherry at Sherry's Zoo and Garden because I love a zoo. Joy at GardenJoy4Me I know you already have this, but I had to share again. You crack me up. Anna at Flower Garden Girl One of the nicest ladies you will ever read. She also has some of the prettiest designs and collages that I like to copy. Matt and Jen at Our First Garden A sweet couple with lady bugs all over their blog. It has been fun watching as they create their new garden. All those at Tomato Casual this blog is obsessed with or dedicated to tomatoes. Ourfriendben, Silence Dogood, and Richard at Poor Richards Almanac Always a great read. Sometimes funny, sometimes smart, sometime a little sad, often about one of my favorite subjects, food. Curmudgeon and Wing Nut at Weed Wackin Wenches Two ladies with a wicked sense of humor, great plant stuff and a raccoon. Finally, VP at Veg Plotting I had to tag back, I love your blog.

Thanks again VP. This has been fun.

  1. Thank you, Debbi! What an honor!!! But, er. I'm afraid you'll have to hold our collective hand and tell us in the most idiot-proof way possible how to actually install the coveted "E" on our site. We weren't kidding about the "Luddite" part of our subtitle, which is just a more hifalutin way of saying that technologically, individually and in the aggregate, we are without a clue. (At least I come by it honestly. It runs in my family, both sides, both sexes: For each and all of us, plugging in an appliance is considered a major technological achievement. Sigh...) So now you get rewarded for your kindness to us by being given more work! In the "no good deed goes unpunished" category. Sorry!!!

  2. Hi ourfriendben,

    Here is how I did it.
    Right click on the E/excellent picture on my side bar, pick save picture, go to customize on your blog, click add a page element and click add a picture then browse to find the picture, open the picture, and save changes. It is easier than adding the Blotanical logo/link.

  4. Thanks for your comments on my blog recently!

    I have enjoyed perusing through your blog tonight. Aside from enjoying reading about your gardening in your entries, I liked the sidebar of plants that died. I should institute this on my blog, as I am learning a lot about this, sadly. Some plants I am saving by transplanting to a more suitable location; others just aren't making it, no matter how hard I try. Good to know I'm not the only one who struggles with keeping things green. :)

  7. Hi Joy, My dad says if you love the product, buy some of the stock. So far it has worked for him. Your welcome.
