Out of The Hat ideas to live a Maximum Lifestyle on a Minimum Budget
Very Inspiring Poet Award I posted the first edition of this poetry blog award here. I’ll admit it, that post was written in my first year of blogging, and I hadn’t really met even half of the amazing blog friends I have now, just a short time later. So the post did link to four
The Shauny Award Dear Kitty of Some Blog nominated me for the sparkly new Shauny Award for blogging excellence. There aren’t really any rules for the award, which is pretty cool. I mean, freestyle awarding. How cool is that? I’m not really sure where the excellence is in my little blog, as I don’t really
One Lovely Blog Award I received the One Lovely Blog award from Ajaytao 2010. I`m so honored to have so many friends in this community! Here is my second award (gained in a single week!) The rules? Easy peasy. All you have to do is show the blog picture in the post, link to your
Today, as well as being New Years Eve, is also my Blogs Birthday! Its been a whole year. I dont even know where to begin. Im so lucky to have met all of you lovely people. Im glad weve struggled through our blogs identities, changing writing styles and tones, exploring new blog formats and types
Existing Poetry Badges+Competitions in the Blogosphere I like badges. They are shiny, and they make you feel good. Badges are those little things that say, “Yes, Ive done something with my blog. Its not just a personal journal or newspaper, it`s a place others go to read and to think.” What a nice goal. So
The Very Inspiring Blogger Award It is a truth universally acknowledged that blog awards aren`t always fair. How else could such a lazy blogger as me have any awards while my really dedicated and high quality comrades walk around without any? Though, of course, everyone else who has
I love responding to blog challenges. They challenge me, and they make me feel like eventually I will have someone respond to some of my challenges. Even better, I have had some people respond to my challenges, and it is only fair to pass on that blogger love! Like the lovely Doris in this post.
I know, it seems a little weird to have the week end on a Friday. On the other hand, Im sure the second you get out of work, it feels like the week ended for you, so I think it tends to work out in the end. So, what have we been doing for this
Our Adventure So Far… Wow, weve reached the fifth day already! I feel like we have done so much, and come so far. Thats probably because its true, though! We really have gotten a lot done. We <a title=”Poetry Challenge Week: Day 1″ href=”http://thegreatzambini.com/2013/05/31/poetry-challenge-week-day-1/”>found some poems</a> that were worth reading and decided that writing poetry might
So, the story so far: Day 1 we decided that there might could possibly be some poems out there that don`t suck, and that it might be a worthy goal to make a poem of your own. Day 2 we faced our fears and wrote the first sentence in a poem. Day 3 we ignored
We are continuing the poetry challenge. Hopefully you did your homework yesterday and found at least one poem you actually liked, so you wont be feeling so dejected at this point. That will also help inspire you for the challenge today! We are still taking this whole poem crafting experience slowly, so here is day
Yesterday evening, a frantic Zambini was scrambling to create a lovely post for you. In between visions of gumdrops were dancing and fawning fans, ready to praise my very pen. (Really, I dont think anyone would be that dramatic, and I think Id be a little scared if they were waxing lyrical over any post,
Waah! I Feel So Loved! Thanks to EggYolkDays for nominating me! I have to say, there is something you have to love about a family blogging team! :) The Liebster Award is for brand new bloggers, or something close enough to brand new. I havent even blogged through a whole year, so I guess I
People sometimes ask me why I ‘waste’ my time, scribbling words away to a bored audience. There are many reasons! I love that ah-ha moment, and I want to bring it to the maximum number of people possible. I want to create eureka moments, and a sense of wonder in the world around us. I
The Sunshine Award dearkitty1 nominated this blog for the Sunshine Award. Thank you so much! I`m starting to feel a little overwhelmed by how much people seem to like my blog. Really, three awards in a little over a week? I never dreamed this would happen! Thank you, all my readers! I feel so loved
