I have nominated you for the Illuminating Blogger Award. Please see my post for details: http://collinesblog.wordpress.com/2012/06/06/the-illuminating-blogger-award/
I noticed that you do not want any more nominations – so it is okay that you do not accept. I just wanted to share your site with my readers 🙂
Enjoy your day John.
This was very kind of you, Colline, and I hope you don’t feel that my refusal to accept awards means I value your nomination any less. I do appreciate the gesture and am grateful. Have a great day, too!
John, I know you don’t “do” awards, so I hope you are not offended, but I wanted others to know what an inspiring blog you have by recognizing it with a Very Inspiring Blogger award. No obligation to respond, just know that your blog is read and enjoyed. You can read about your nomination in my post: http://travelgardeneat.com/2013/05/01/blowin-in-the-wind-or-where-do-all-the-bloggers-go/
Congratulations, John! You have been awarded: Best Moment Award
I do not expect any action to be taken, or for you to generate a post (unless you wish to pass on the award nominations). Nevertheless, your blog has been awarded at: http://fae-magazine.com/2013/08/28/award-august-2013-part-2/
Enjoy your Award! 😀 Fae.
Thank you so much, Fae. Even though I no longer participate in the awards process, it doesn’t mean I value them any less. It’s an honor and I’m very grateful.
See, now this is what I should have done, say thank you but to not accept any awards any more – I just feel too guilty though. Nonetheless, I am sharing some family love with you on my blog today. 🙂 xo
I completely understand that you don’t participate in the awards-thing John, but could not fail to mention your blog when I was nominated by a fellow blogger recently. Your blog is absolutely one of my favourites – thank you for what you do! http://wuppenif.com/2013/11/19/the-versatile-blogger-award/
You are too kind! That was such a nice comment to leave. I hope you know that just because I know longer participate doesn’t mean that I do not appreciate your kind gesture. Thank you so much.
Hello, I have nominated you to the Dragon’s Loyalty Award. You obviously don’t take up “the challenge” (and I understand you, it takes some work) but nevertheless, I do like your blog and find it deserving of yet more readers so I happily link to it. 😀
Please check out my latest blog post (15 April) for more info and rules if you for any reason change your mind and wish to accept it. Thanks for a good blog!! 🙂
Thank you for your kindly nomination of my blog for the Dragon’s Loyalty Award. No, I don’t participate in these awards any more but it is no less an honor to be nominated for one and I’m truly grateful for your kindness.
John, I’ve nominated you for The Dragon Loyalty Award. I can’t thank you enough for the support, kindness and “loyalty” you have given me! Participation is purely optional. No matter your decision, the award is yours to keep! If you choose to pass the award along, you can find the “Rules of the Award”, here: http://feastingwithfriendsblog.com/2014/04/16/an-attitude-of-gratitude/
It was very kind of you, Nancy, to think of me and nominate me for the Dragon Loyalty Award. I may not participate in the award process but that doesn’t mean I am any less appreciative for your thoughtfulness. Thank you.
You are very welcome John! The award is yours to keep and display proudly, whether you choose to participate in the process or not. Thank you again for the continued loyalty, support and kindness you provide to me and the blogging community as a whole!
Hi John I wanted to nominate you for a couple of awards (although I see you have already been nominated for them before) because I truly enjoy reading your blog. There is no pressure at all to accept it’s more of a way for me to just acknowledge your blog and the great things that you are cooking 🙂 Hope you return soon!!
