Nikky from Nik Snacks presented this award to my blog. I love Nikki. She is such a creative foodie. She cooks, she works, she's on TV, she writes, she does anything and everything. I have absolutely no doubt that Nikki will have her own show one day. She's ambitious and she's going places. It's a wonder she ever has anytime to sit back and put her feet up after a long day. Congratulations on being such a great blogger, foodie and friend, Nikki. We all love you. Please visit Nikki at her blog and try and keep up with her. She goes a mile a minute, smiling all the while.

S P O T L I G H TArlene from The Food of Love hit the spotlight on one of my recipes a few days ago. I was floored! The recipe, Caldo de Albondigas, is a simple soup that my mother used to prepare for my brothers and me when we were little, during the fall and winter months. Well, Arlene liked it enough to showcase it on her blog - thank you sweetie. This recipe is very special to me. Arlene is a retired school administrator who lives in a log cabin. I am so jealous. The whole idea of living alongside nature is so romantic that I'm sure we all wish we could trade places with Arlene every once in a while. Visit Arlene at her blog and say hello and check out her wonderful recipes.
