Excellent Blogger

by Jackie

excellentblog.jpgA few weeks ago Casey from The Beautiful Letdown awarded me an Excellent Blogger award. I was touched by the gesture then promptly forgot about it because maybe I’m not so excellent after all. In my defense we suffered through illness and sleep deprivation and pregnancy brain since the award was given, but I’m still a bit of a slacker. So without further ado, I’ll do my part and pass on the blog love and present the Excellent Blogger award to the following blogs/bloggers.

1. Ladybug’s Picnic- we’re currently pregnant together for the second time and after meeting her in person this weekend she was nice enough to not blog about my child smashing a bottle of wine on her dining room floor.

2. EditorMom- Katharine’s blog is interesting and timely and she’s as good a commenter as she is a blogger. She should also win an Excellent commenter award.

3. Chutes and Ladders- I started reading Brooke’s blog after she left a comment here. She is funny. I appreciate that in a blogger.

4. Safe Mama- Motherhood has turned me into a hippie and this website helps me make safe choices for my family. Check out the cheat sheets in the sidebar for links to safe bottles, sippies and pthalate-free items.

5. One More Moore- I found this blog through my online expecting club and I am awed by her talent. Check out the lovely items she makes on her blog then buy them at her etsy store.

6. The Yummy Mummy Cooks Gourmet- I read a lot of food blogs for my Kids Dish site and this one is the perfect blend of kids and food. Kim’s writing is funny and her recipes are always interesting.

7. Babygadget- If I had unlimited funds I would buy just about everything Babygadget links to. Their bloggers have a sharp eye for design and find the most stunning toys, furniture, gear and everything else for kids.

8. Farm to Philly- I should be posting to the site, but pregnancy has seriously interfered with my desire and ability to seek out local foods. Luckily there are plenty of other more devoted locavores to take up the slack. February is the Tofu Challenge month. Who knew there was locally made tofu in Philly?

9. Smitten Kitchen- 9 out of 10 recipes I try and post about at Kids Dish come straight from the pages of Smitten Kitchen. Yum.

10. The Twinkies- Stacie nurses twins. I can’t even imagine. She’s already gotten one of these, but I’m still so impressed by the nursing of the twins that I can’t help but give it again.

    I’m honored to be included in such a talented group. Thank you! But it’s hard not to be a good commenter on your blog because you write about a very important topic. :-)

  2. Brooke Says:

    I am so excited! I posted this in my blog and tomorrow I will pick my own group of fav blog winners :) Thanks for choosing me!

  3. The Yummy Mummy Cooks Gourmet Says:

    Thanks for this lovely boost! It only took me 2 months to figure out you did it. (As you can tell I am quite savvy with a computer.)

    I am excited to read your blog. As you know, I’m having all kinds of nursing issues with my youngest (20 months). We’d love to get pregnant but I haven’t gotten my period back yet and she is very connected to the whole nursing process and I am as well, so we are all trying to figure it out one day at a time.

    Anyway, I’ll be hanging around to find out more and maybe get your advice.

    And thanks so much for the blurb!
