Blog Love

July 21, 2014 · 2 Comments

So I was nominated for a Liebster award by my friend who has a great blog Life's Next Big Step , where she dishes on being a mom and her health & fitness routine. I think it's great when bloggers can support each other, thanks Katie!

LiebsterAward-2

So what is a Liebster Award? The award is given to support & recognize up & coming bloggers who have less than 200 followers (on their blog) or likers (on their Facebook page). The word “Liebster” has German origins & is reported to mean sweetest, kindest, nicest, dearest, beloved, lovely, kind, pleasant, valued, cute, endearing, & welcome. 

So, here are the rules of the Liebster Award:

1. Thank and link the person who nominated you.
2. Display the Liebster Award and the rules.
3. Answer the 11 questions given to you.
4. Write some facts about yourself. 
5. Nominate other bloggers (who have less than 200 followers).
6. Write 11 new questions for your nominees.

 

Here are my questions:

1. What is your favorite way to exercise?  I love running! I really never thought I would say that, but it's true. I don't necessarily run fast, but I go longer distances. It's fun getting a group together and running around the park. There are beautiful places all over New Orleans to see along the way.

2. What is your favorite way to wind down? Watching documentaries on Netflix, they are fascinating and slightly addictive.

3. What is one of your pet peeves? When people are late, I hate being late.

4. Summer, Spring, Winter, or Fall? Summer, hands down. The hotter, the better.

5. What is your favorite quote? "When you know better, you do better" Maya Angelou

6. What is your favorite beverage? Arnold Palmer, 1/2 unsweet iced tea, 1/2 lemonade. 

7. Something you never leave home without? Besides the essentials, I bring my kindle. I have been trying to read more lately!

8. Do you have a lucky charm? What is it? No lucky charms, only lucky numbers.

9. What is your favorite day of the year? Christmas day, it's certainly the most anticipated.

10. What is one thing that inspires you? My sister! We try to hold each other accountable for reaching our goals and going after our dreams.

11. What is one goal you hope to achieve in the next year? I would love to get another internship with a food publication of some sort.
