A Blog Award for You!

The other day, I went along reading my daily blogs when I came along an award to me from ParisPastry--thank you, Danielle! 

If I could award it back to you, I would! In the meantime, I'll just wish I could spring into your kitchen when you make that old-fashioned chocolate cake.

Here's the way it goes: I get to send the award out to seven other blogs I really enjoy, and share seven things about me.

One - I am a compulsive raw-dough eater.
Two - I am finally out of school and looking for a job! Anyone searching for someone to fill a marketing position in Paris?
Three - When I was really young, I dressed up as a tiger. By putting streaks of black an orange marker all over myself.
Four - My sister and I go crazy over tiny dogs.
Five - I wish I had a green thumb, but unfortunately I have a lot of trouble keeping a plant alive.
Six - My favorite book is Aurélien by Louis Aragon.
Seven - I used to collect plastic bags. Yes, plastic bags. We've already gone over the fact that I was a strange kid.

And without further ado, I'm passing it along to seven blogs out of the dozens I truly enjoy reading every day:

One Perfect Bite - Great stories and a plethora of recipes from Mary
Cake, Batter and Bowl - Funny anecdotes and great food!
Bake in Paris - If I could buy myself photography skills, I would ask Kris if I could copy his.
Cinnamon Spice & Everything Nice - Reeni's multicultural recipes are definitely keepers.
3B's - A great tale of family life, baking, and having fun throughout it all.
La Cuisine de Mercotte - Fabulous French recipes, perfectly detailed and completely innovative.
A Southern Grace - Cinnamon and alluring close-ups of cake; what else?

Thank you all for making my mornings filled with great stories, recipes, and also for making my stomach rumble even right after breakfast!
