I am new to this blogging community; my dear friend Mimi inspired me with her blog http://waitingforthekarmatruck.com, which always makes me laugh, cry, shake my head yes, and sometimes do all of the above at the same time. She is pure genius.
I am very flattered that Mimi nominated me for the Super Sweet Blogging Award.
Even as I accept this award I am both proud and astonished. No one has ever accused me of being “sweet.” So I will have to assume that in this case “sweet” is a broader term that encompasses my wacky ways.
I was most excited at the prospect of making a long, intensely meaningful acceptance speech, but I guess everyone has had enough of that today, so I will (for once) dutifully follow the instructions issued to me with the award:
Thank the person who nominated you.
Thank you Mimi, for this and so much more!
Answer the following questions:
1. Cookies or cake?
Too hard to choose-a cake made of cookies I suppose
2. Chocolate or vanilla
I don’t understand this question or have any knowledge of something called “vanilla”
3. What is your favorite sweet treat, cheesecake or frozen yogurt?
Cheesecake, with a frozen yogurt chaser
4. When do you crave sweet things most?
Anytime I am not in a coma
5. If you had a sweet nickname, what would it be?
This is a tough one; as noted above “sweet” is not the first thing that pops into anyone’s mind when they hear my name…but I guess I’d go with a chocolate cupcake; it’s short, squat, dense and makes a mess, but everyone loves it.
I’ll open it up to you, readers, to come up with something better…but be nice.
Mimi tells me the next step is to pay it forward to a baker’s dozen, but this is embarrassing…right now Mimi’s blog is the only one I read. I trust Mimi’s picks so I’m going to go with hers and those she selected, but I’m looking forward to soon having the time to read all of these!

a) we’ll need to discuss; I definitely need your help–let’s get something on the calendar under separate cover
