Let them eat cake

Psst...that *is what Marie Antoinette said, isn't it?

Anyway, Sheree has nominated my blog for the Marie Antoinette award.

Woohoo! She must've thought it would cure me of my incessant whining.

This is what Sheree had to say about Marie Antoinette:
"For centuries, Marie has been reviled as a partying slut who lived a lavish life of excess. Of course I'd be given such an award. While my life and reputation are less historic, Marie and I have a couple of things in common. At her rustic retreat called the hemeau, "porcelain bowls were cast using Marie Antoinette's own ample breasts as their mould." Pottery. Breasts. Marie even rhymes with Sheree.

So, in honor of The Girls, I would like to recognize the following Blogs for their mammary contributions: Miss Thystle for her Remarkable Rack & bawdy sense of humor. Our Name is Blog for her Beautiful Berthas, her mojo & for inspiring me in everything she does. And though I know nothing of their boobage, I'd like to express my appreciation for Debbie from Suburb Sanity for her endless optimism & Kristin of kwr221 for listing religion as her industry while simultaneously drinking coffee out of a Bite Me mug."

So, I'm flattered, of course, but I have to confess... my girls are not as commentable as they once were.... but they are perky! They are no longer rubbing elbows so-to-speak with my naval (or is it navel?). No, they are now in their rightful place. So, The Rack is no more - I traded it in for a more wardrobe-and exercise-friendly version. Now I just gape in awe (and sometimes pity) of others. (Yep, I think it's navel)

Anywhoooo....
If you would like to accept this award, the original giver has included the following rules:

1) Please add the Marie Antoinette award photo on your blog.

2) Place a link to the person from whom you received the award.

3) Nominate 7 exceptional blogs to receive the award.

4) Put the links to those blogs on your blog.

5) Leave a message on their blogs to tell them they are the chosen ones!

Okay, like Sheree, I have a hard time following arbitrary rules... she tagged 3 bloggers for this award and ignored the 7 rules, so here goes: (I'm going to try and tag people that I haven't tagged before, but my memory is short, so don't shoot me if I'm inconsistent.)

• The Smartini Girls, because well, there's 6 of them so you never know what they'll serve up
  
• Living Laura - because I just like her and her cousin, Jenny Fabulous
  
• Andi at The Creative Junkie because she pees orange. Need I say more? Oh, and she knows what a YiaYia is. (Eh-hem, NOT a yaya like BJinDallas talks about)
  
• Stefanie at Stefanie Says because every day during NaBloMo or whatever it's called she entertained the internets with dating stories, not just any dating stories but computer matched dating stories. Good stuff.

So, that's 5. Go check'em out. Or off with your heads.

There's no cake, sorry. I ate it. Or maybe Heather did - it was carrot cake.

(It's definitely navel, not naval. Duh)
