Hey folks… It’s Friday!!! I wanted to switch things up a bit and share some great blogger friends with all of you as well as pass on an award that was graciously given to me earlier this week. I am planning on doing one of these posts each week and feature a number of fun and exciting food blogs. Let me know if you think this is valuable as we share each others ideas.

I was very fortunate and excited to receive the Excellent blog award from Natasha over at Healthy and Gourmet. Thank you Natasha!

So now I would like to take this time to pass it on to three great blogs. For these winners if you would be so kind and choose three of your favorite blogs and keep this award moving along.

Her blog is very professional and easy to find the information you are looking for right away. Keep up the good work Tina.

Krista always come off as very optimistic in her writing and is full of energy - you will be happy you stopped by and make sure you bookmark for great meal ideas.
