* A REALLY SPECIAL AWARD *

Stephen Tremp at Breakthrough Blogs gave me the Meat and Potatoes Award!

“This prestigious award goes to a particular group of wise and experienced bloggers who have proven themselves over the course of time, trials, and tribulations. If you are looking to follow someone’s guidance for writing, publishing, and promotion, then I suggest you look no further than this esteemed group.”

Thank you, Stephen! I don’t know it all - just enough to be dangerous. And I’m too redheaded stubborn to give up!

* CAPTION WINNER *

Selecting this week’s caption winner was difficult! There were so many good ones and I recommend you go back and read all the entries - The Sunday Sillies

Special mention goes to:

"Live Long and Prosper." Laura at Wavy Lines

(Appeals to my inner Trekker!)

But the big winner, as we love The Princess Bride:

“Hello. My Name Is Inigo Meowa. You Killed My Father. Prepare to Die.” From Tamara at Get Your Giggle On
