While I’ve never been a fan of “chain” correspondence (a part of me always worries, what if I really DO have 9 years of bad luck because I didn’t pass it on?!), I’ll happily make an exception for The Liebster Award. A peer-to-peer “award,” The Liebster is a way to give some recognition to newer bloggers and further unite the blogging community. Thank you to Aurea from Empty Rack for taking the time to nominate me! I feel very honored, indeed.
