Thank you sweet Alicia for this award. Visit her blog and check out her beautiful endearing work. You'll be charmed.
Along with the award came a tag to name 7 things I love. Another hard one... so many things to choose. Okay, family and friends are a given so here's some more abstract ones...
I love sleeping and especially with my fleece pillow. A couple of years ago when I went to the SCBWI NY conference, the kids surprised me with a fleece blanket and pillow when I returned. There is nothing more comfy than this thing, let me tell you. I sleep with mine every night. (As an aside the fabric has my favorite character, Eeyore.)

I love how Lily puts herself to sleep with her stuffed toys. Isn't that darling? I've never seen a dog
do that before.
3.
I love how Valentine sunbathes in the snow! And I love snow.

I love illustrating and crafting so I love this movie and haven't even seen it yet ! Go to "you tube" to see some behind the scenes footage.

FASCINATING. I predict it will win many awards.
5.
I love ham and pineapple pizza. Especially on thin crust at Dominos.
My favorite color. I love every variation of this.
7.
Which leads to this stuffy. Look at the pistachio color! You can buy him ready made and guess what else? If he's out of your price range you can make one yourself. Jenny provides everything you need. I ordered one so Emily and I can make him together. Can't wait! Jenny Lee has a blog too!

Okay that was more like 10 things.
I tag and award Eric Barclay, The gang at Illustration for Kids, Picturebookies, Beth Doherty , PG and betz white.
I cannot wait to see Coraline! Our theater is showing it in 3D, and I'm practically bouncing up and down in excitement.
I too love that green-blue color! It's so soothing and refreshing.
