Congrats to all the participants and please join us next time! If you have not become a member of our forum yet, please register today!

I have also been awarded two very special awards and so I would love to take this award moment to thank Madeleine of Madeleine Cocina for selecting me for the Premio Blog Solidario for blogs who (if you speak Spanish):
“premiar a los blogs que destacan o han destacado en alguna ocasión por su solidaridad con los demás.”
or as she explained to me are for bloggers who help other bloggers. So thank you so much Madeleine! I can’t thank you enough for thinking of me!

I also want to thank Valli of More Than Burnt Toast from the bottom of my heart for nominating me for a Thoughtful Blogger Award:
“The Thoughtful Blogger Award is for those who answer blog comments, emails, and make their visitors feel at home on their blogs. For the people who take others’ feelings into consideration before speaking out and who are kind and courteous. Also for those bloggers who spend so much of their time helping other bloggers design, improve, and fix their sites. This award is for those generous bloggers who think of others.â€
So congratulations to everyone and I hope everyone has a great weekend!
