Weeee! I won a Stylish Blogger Award !!

This is so great! Jessica from Quilty Habit has contacted me to let me know my blog was one of the lucky few to get her Stylish Blogger Award and I am so thrilled! Thank you! Actually makes me feel a bit guilty for not being around lately.
Also, she has a really cute blog, so if you're looking for new blogs to get inspired with, go visit, I'm sure she'd love that! :)

The Stylish Blogger Awards have a couple of rules:
1. Thank and link back to the person who gave you the award  (just did that)
2. Share seven things about yourself.
3. Award six recently discovered great bloggers.
4. Contact the bloggers and tell them about the award.

So, 7 things about myself. This might actually be harder than I thought...

1- I am crazy about animals, I wish I could work around them for a living. I love all animals and they move me in ways that nothing else does. And God knows how much portuguese animals need people who love and care for them.

2- On that note, I have to confess my cats taught me how to love. Might sound weird, but it is true. I got my first cat when I was 27 and it changed my life forever, They showed me how to love unconditionally and how good it feels to love and be loved that way.

3- I love to drive and I think I'm pretty good at it, I actually get mad when people make fun of my driving skills.

4- I'm a dreamer and a romantic. When I imagine the perfect man for me, I'm constantly drawn to Jane Austen's leading men: proud, a bit on the cranky side, but intelligent, caring and generous. Love it!

5- I love to travel, particularly by plane. The best parts for me are the ones most people dread: the take-off and the landing, it's just so thrilling, I love it!

6-  I love the beach and I love the water. I love swimming. Unfortunately, due to several reasons too silly to mention, I've been to the beach exactly once in the last two years. Pathetic, I know! Particularly considering where I live... I'm going tomorrow to make sure I make up for it this year.

7- There are some Reality shows I'm shamefully addicted to, like Hell's Kitchen, The Biggest Loser, The Ultimate Cake Off and Cake Boss. I could easily see myself making cakes for a living... Or watch reality shows about it. heheheh


Now, for the next stage: Award six recently discovered great bloggers. I'm not that sure how recent these blogs are, but they are a few of my favorite:

1- The Creative Adventures of Little MissPip
2 - MADE
3 - Poppyprint
4 - Punky & Me
5- Swim, Bike, Quilt
6- By Daisy

I'm going to contact them and complete the final stage. I hope they accept my award. So exciting :)
