And the Nominations are in!!

I guess this is a ‘thing’ in the blogsphere – random people nominate other random people for random awards.  

It rather feels like clickbait or a vain attempt to get more followers, but who couldn’t use more folks to network with? As a new blogger, I know I’d like more friends with whom to share my thoughts and ideas with.  It vaguely gives me the feeling that I just may be helping someone…just vaguely.

So, I’m game!  

I hereby announce that we, Misty Meadows Homestead, proudly accept the:


All silliness aside, I really do want to thank lifestyle blogger, Purplebutterfly for nominating us for this award. Out of her many followers, she chose us (and 9 other bloggers) for this fun award. 

The Rules:

  1. Put the award logo/image on your blog.
  2. List the rules.
  3. Thank whoever nominated you and provide a link to their blog.
  4. Mention the creator of the award and provide their link as well.
  5. Tell your readers 3 things about yourself.
  6. You have to nominate 10-20 people.
  7. Notify your nominees by commenting on their blog.
  8. Ask your nominees any 5 questions of your choice, with one weird or funny question (specify).
  9. Share a link to your best post(s)

This award was originally created by okoto enigma, whose blog tag line is, “…Because life is all about learning new things and having fun…” So, in the spirit of that, let’s get started!

3 things about me  

  • I enjoy gardening 
  • I love to bake
  • I have an aptitude for skiptracing

Here are my answers to the 5 questions asked to me by Purplebutterfly:

  1. What are your goals for this month? To unpack as many boxes as possible and find places for everything or purge it.
  2. What is one of your hidden talent? If I tell you, it won’t be hidden any more, so PASS!
  3. Do you daydream often? Wait! Did you say something?  I was daydreaming.
  4. Have you ever been to the beach? Yes.
  5. Can you wiggle your ears right now, do it? No, but 3.5 minutes ago, I almost took flight. Ha! I really wish I could wiggle my ears.  Best I can wiggle is my nose and even that is more of a scrunch.

Here is the link to my best blog post:
Fitness Friday – Lies We Tell Ourselves
