Thank you so much to ErikaKind for nominating me for The Versatile Blogger Award!! It’s such an honor to be thought of by you as worthy of this award!
There are, of course, rules to go with this award. I will get into that later.
First, an explanation. I am by no means a scientist although I am always interested in the science behind whatever it is I am thinking about. The “whys” and “how comes” have become nagging friends of mine, always demanding explanations. However, I am one to love a good experiment (even if it is subconscious).
That is probably why I love to cook. I have allowed myself to not be restrained by recipes and really just use them as a guide. Taking a bunch of ingredients and mixing them together is creative. The result for me is just icing in the cake. It’s the process I really enjoy.
Same with clothes. A fashionista I am not but I am so entertained walking through a mall or a store and eyeing the fabrics and patterns. It’s all eye candy. (My husband wishes I didn’t have such a sweet tooth)!
Writing is obviously also creative. One does not need to write well to still get the thrill of stringing words together and making a point. When it becomes interactive you know your words have made an impact. That’s the most phenomenal feeling of all.
The truth is we are all versatile. Everyone has various interests and/or hobbies. People are educated in multiple doctrines. Some of us are more expert at one thing or another and have chosen to direct their energies into focusing on that particular subject. I do not have the attention span for that!😬
Bouncing from one idea/activity to the other is much more my speed. One day cooking, another writing, reading, shopping, gardening, I never know what I’ll be inspired to blog about.
When I was young I always heard ” do something you love”. I could never pick. I love too many things. I decided I love my family best of all and since I was blessed with the opportunity to be a stay at home mom I chose that. I have been blessed again to be writing a blog that includes all of my passions. To be considered a Versatile Blogger means to me that I have been recognized for being myself.
That is awesome!
So again, thank you Erika Kind for such an awesome award.
