Much thanks to Alice of StoryofAlice (subtitle: Alice’s Secret Sex Diary) and SarahAlice of The Adventures of An English Student (not to be confused with one another) for awarding our humble blog the “Meta Awesomest Blog” Award and the “Beautiful Blogger Award” respectively.
Here are the rules for the “Beautiful Blogger Award”:
The Rules
1. Include the award logo somewhere in your blog.
2. Answer 10 questions you have about yourself. (I changed that a little.)
3. Nominate 10 to 12 blogs you enjoy. Or you pick the number.
4. Pay the love forward: Provide your nominee’s link in your post and comment on their blog to let them know they’ve been included and invited to participate.
5. Pay the love back with gratitude and a link to the blogger(s) who nominated you.
Alice simplified the rules for her award, saying “Answer some questions about yourself and spread the love.”
Here’s how I plan to go about following (or not) the rules for both these awards. For the longest time now I have been jealous of blogs I read that have a “blog roll” or “blogs I follow” sidebar. I want one. Whomever comments on this page and tells me how to create one in WordPress first wins the “Awesomest Blogger Award” along with it ridiculous picture and poor grammar. Then everyone who shows up in our new “blog roll” bar wins the “Beautiful Blogger Award” – even if you have won it before!
Lastly, can anyone tell us where SarahAlice has gone? She seems to be missing. She was blogging about a trip to D.C., but radio silence after that. Concerned.
OK, here are our ten answers, you can guess the questions:
1. In the shower.
2. Four or five.
3. Cinema Paradiso.
4. Morning/Evening.
5. All the time!
6. Her ass.
7. His cock.
8. On the subway.
9. Never.
10. Love.
Thanks everyone,
Lo & HH
The Questions:
First, congrats! Its a well deserved award. Alice nominated us as well. The image is……unique.
As for the blog roll, in your Dashboard in the very upper left hand corner you’ll see your WP blog name/screen name. Mouse over that. A drop down menu will appear. One of the items in that drop down will be Widgets. Click that. The Blog Roll should be one of the Widgets to choose from.
YOU WIN!!!!! Thank you so much! You’ve rocked our world!

I just made a tab and manually put in my blogroll because I wanted it up top and my WP theme has all the widgets at the bottom 🙂
Please tell me Cinema Paradiso is your favorite film.
One of them. Watched it last night with Lo – her first time, my third. Cried like a baby. . . again. (Me, that is.)
One of the most beautiful films I’ve ever seen. I cry just thinking of it. I hope Lo enjoyed it? Though I know she unconsciously “enjoys” all moving pictures.

She’s been recommending it to everyone!
Congrats. I would have told you, but I was beaten to the punch. I’ve considered putting up a blogroll, but changed my mind because I wasn’t entirely sure of its purpose.
Well, for one, it promotes good karma – spreading the word about others you like. Another purpose is to have a convenient list at hand to check out what friends are up to (since WP doesn’t always send notifications to e-mail, at least for me they don’t).
Hadn’t thought of that.
Thanks for adding me to your blog roll *much love* xxxx
Congrats on your awards. They are well-deserved.
Thank you very much for passing one on to me! I’m very honored.
BTW, Cinema Paradiso is one of my fave movies. Just a few days ago, I recommended it to a friend to watch.
Congrats and glad you asked this question…so now I can create one 🙂
Now, kind Si…, opps, I mean friend, you have me confused, as I’m writing a blog acceptance speech, and had a comment mentioning you passed on an award, because I was on your blogroll… And now I’ve come to have a look, and and I’m not on your blogroll! *gasp* 😉 It’s okay, I still love you both! Mwah!!
Dearest LSAM, Believe me, you ARE on our blogroll, but blame it on WordPress, for some reason not everyone on our blogroll shows up on the side-bar. I’m working on fixing that right now!!!!
Your blog is one of the most frequently read by us!!!
OK, I’ve figured it out! Apparently WP only shows up to 50 blogs by order of the latest blog followed. Since LSAM was one of the first blogs we followed, you apparently got bumped. Because of this, sometime soon we will make our own list of links and you’ll be on it!!!
@HH. No harm, no foul. Xoxoxo
