It's a Major Award!!

Please tell me you got the "A Christmas Story" reference!!

We have been given this award from other bloggers as well, but the first one came from Kyoti's Nails, so it is the first one we will respond to. It is a honor for other bloggers to recognize us and share us with their people.

Picture
The basic rules are these:
1. Each person tagged must post 11 things about themselves.

2. They must also answer the 11 questions the 'tagger' has set for them.

3. They must create 11 more questions to ask bloggers they have decided to tag.

4. They must then choose 11 bloggers with less than 200 followers and tag them in their post.

5. These lucky bloggers must then be told.

6. There's no tag backs.

Karen’s Answers:
  • What is your favorite food?  Mashed Potatoes
  • What was your first pet? The first pet we had for a long time was a cat name Jake.  He was a tough guy!  We had some dogs before him but never had them for long, so I count Jake.
  • How big is your collection? (pics please!)  I have one plastic container bigger than a shoe box.  I had a lot before I moved across the country but was not allowed to take them so I gave a lot to my sister.

  • What is your personal motto?  Never give up on your dreams.
  • Who is your favorite author/what is your favorite book?  Favorite author...don't have one, but if I go by my favorite books it would be JK Rowling...I heart Harry Potter
  • What movie or show could you re-watch every week/month for the rest of your life?  Movie?  Probably 10 Things I Hate About You...early Heath.  Yum.  As for TV show, that's tough but probably Family Guy.
  • What's the one thing you can't live without?  My laptop with internet!
  • What is your favorite polish brand, either Indie or big-name, and your favorite color by them?  I don't have a true favorite - I buy a lot of different brands and a lot of colors.  Right now I love Timeless by Revlon...it's a soft dove gray color.  Great for stamping.
