Grateful for baristas who make beautiful coffee and blogs that inspire me

You know that annoying habit bloggers have, taking pictures of everything just in case we need them? I was taking photos at a cafe when the barista saw me and offered to make me another coffee. In case the first one wasn’t beautiful enough. I declined but it put a smile on my face.

Coffee

This week I’m grateful for the Liebster Award given to me by Shannon at Vintage Restyled and Pepper at The Pepperific Life. Thank you, ladies, I’m truly honoured.

The rules for the Liebster Award are simple: thank the person who gave it to you and pass it on to 5 blogs with less than 300 followers. How easy can it be? Plus what a great excuse to share some of the blogs that inspire me!

Well, it wasn’t that easy. Figuring out who had how many followers over the different social networks was impossible. If your name is on  my list of Liebster blogs and you don’t think your blog fits into the ‘small blog’ category, please don’t take offence. Either way, you inspire me.
  • Veronica at Mixed Gems inspires me by asking hard questions.
  • Jennifer at T-Rex Mom and Dad Tales inspires me with her creativity.
  • Dyamond at Dyamond in the Rough inspires me to follow my heart.
  • Abbie at Greening Sam and Avery inspires me with her passion for outdoor play. By the way, she’s running an Outdoor Play Linky and it’s open right now. If you have played outdoors this week and written a post about it, please head over to join her.
  • Joy at Pardon My Poppet inspires me to find blessings where the positive is not immediately obvious.

I hope some of these blogs will inspire you, too!

What are you grateful for this week?

    Thank you. I’ve never considered myself a creative person but when I look back at what I’ve crafted in the past few years I guess that I am. Thank you again. You inspire me!

      That’s what’s so special about you – you don’t think you are creative and you don’t think you are green, you just get on with it. As opposed to some of us who think too much and do a lot less :)

    I think this is the first time being a small blog has ever been a good thing! Thanks so much for passing this along to me. I am honored that you think my little space in this big blogging world is something to recognize.
    Thanks!

    Love that the barista made you that offer – so sweet (and maybe he gets lots of bloggers in there so is used to it)

    I love it! What a funny thing to happen. I always feel a bit weird about taking photos of food etc – but so many people do now it’s become common place I guess!

    I can’t believe I forgot to say “Thank you” for this! In any case, I’ve done my post and said a public thank you to you there too. :-)
