Awards!

I just got my first two blogger awards ever.

I received this award from Crazy Bookworm.  and most recently A Tapestry of Words

 and The Clumsy Reader.
1. Accept the award, post it on your blog together with the name of the person who has granted the award and his or her blog link.

2. Pass the award to 15 other blogs that you've newly discovered.

3. Remember to contact the bloggers to let them know they have been chosen for this award.

I pass this award to:
Fifteen people who want it. =)

 Lastly, the Versatile Blogger Award was rewarded to me by Missy at Missy's Reads & Reviews. I met her through the blog hop and she has the cutest layout and the most honest reviews. I also enjoy her 30 days of insight posts as well. That might be something I steal borrow.

Here is how the award works:
1. Thank and link back to the person who gave you this award.
2. Share 7 things about yourself.
3. Pass the award along to 15 bloggers who you have recently discovered and who you think are fantastic for whatever reason! (In no particular order...)
4. Contact the bloggers you've picked and let them know about the award.

 Seven things about myself:

1. I play three instruments at varying levels. I played the saxophone (7 years), piano (6 years) and trumpet (2 years). 
2. I like to watch informercials and shopping networks for their food and kitchen prep products. This has expanded into gardening tools too. 
3. My all-time favorite show in the world is The Fresh Prince of Bel Air. 
4. I like to listen to Korean and Japanese hip-hop. My favorite bands at the moment are Epik High and Monkey Majik.
5. I like anime and manga. My favorite anime(s) are Ouran High School Host Club, Cowboy Bebop, Samurai Champloo and Full Metal Alchemist (both versions). (just to name a few). 
6. I wrote two books in elementary school the first one based on Balto and the second one based on a book on Homeward Bound. They were called Blaze and Blaze 2: Kalahari's Adventure. I even hand drew the pictures in the second one. 
7. I love food, making it, eating it, and watching people make it on Food network. You'll find people eating a lot in my story (whether they actually eat a lot or spend a lot of time talking at the table.)
