Sunshine Award for moi!

What a nice surprise to get the Sunshine Award from Randee at Randee's Organized Chaos.  I just love that girl!  I learned that she lives a few hours away from me.  I will be checking on her throughout tornado season!!

This is the award:

And now, as a recipient of this delightful award, I have a few rules to follow:

4.  Favorite non-alcoholic drink?.....sweet tea

6.  My passion?.....Honestly don't know what my "passion" is.  I have a LOT of interests.  Too many, I'm sure.  Perhaps I have a passion for learning new things.
7.  Prefer giving or getting presents?.....Oh, giving them!  (and I swear am not just saying that so you think I am super sweet!)  Especially if I make the gift!  I love shopping for gifts, too.  I try really hard to choose a thoughtful gift.
8.  Favorite pattern?.....Quatrefoil, at the moment.
9.  Favorite day of the week?.....FRIDAY, Friday, friday!
10.  Favorite flower?.....Fabric flowers : )

I wanted to highlight some "newer" (That term is all relative, I suppose.) blogs that I have run across in the recent weeks and months and are now in my "gotta read" list.  I like to check in with these gals as often as I can and see all they are up to.  Thought I would share my new reads with you and share this Sunshine Award with them today!
