When I first saw her message/nomination I didn’t really know what it is was, but I saw the word AWARD and that was enough, ha.
What is the “Liebster Blog Award?”
It is an award given to up and coming bloggers, which reputedly started in Germany. “Liebster” is German for “favorite”, so in a way this award is the “favorite blog award” as another blogger put it. You receive this award from a fellow blogger that feels your blog is both worthy & important to them. If you receive this award, here are the steps to follow:
- Nominate anywhere from 3-11 blogs/bloggers (You can choose. 3-5 is most popular)
- The bloggers awarded must have less than 300 followers.
- Answer the 11 questions asked of you by your nominator
- Pose 11 questions for your nominees
Participation is completely voluntary and is not limited to any genre or writing for that matter. Basically, the blog can be about anything and simply has to be one that you feel is worthy and that you would like to give recognition to by passing it on.
This image kind of explains it…other bloggers with the award:
So I’m going to answer the questions belowrance asked me and then I’ll nominate my 11 bloggers and leave them 11 questions. Good thing they weren’t math questions, ha.
My questions for you:
1. How did you feel when you got your first follower? Or realized other people were reading your words?
Answer: It felt great. It’s nice to know that your likes and thoughts are worth following.
2. I am a car concert superstar (aka I belt out songs in the car with no one around), what is your song of choice when you are a car concert superstar?
Answer: I do not discriminate. Each song I hear has an equal opportunity to be blessed by what I alone think is a beautiful voice.
3. If you could travel anywhere in the world, where would it be?
Answer: There’s many places I’d like to go. So to list a few would be Italy, England, Ireland, Brazil, Japan, Australia, and Greece. In the U.S. I’d like to go to New York, San Francisco, Las Vegas, and somewhere in the mid-west dominated my mother nature.
4. If you had to rush out of your house and only take one item with you, what would it be?
Answer: I guess it would have to be my wheelchair now, ha.
5. What is your favorite baseball team?
Answer: The Atlanta Braves. Years ago they were the only team in the southeast and I’ll stay loyal 🙂
6. Have you ever had a dance party when no one else was around? (yes, I have done this… actually it happens a lot in my house)
Answer: Oh for sure. I take pride in not taking myself seriously and if I want to shake what my momma gave me, I do just that.
7. What is your favorite season?
Answer: Probably right in between spring and summer. Not too cold and not too hot….so Sprummer.
8. What is the best concert you’ve ever been to?
Answer: Hmm, well it probably wasn’t the best ever, but I emotionally needed it and live music can heal the soul. It was Jimmy Eat World at the House of Blues. Small, intimate, just right.
9. If you could be granted one wish, what would it be?
Answer: Universal Peace. This would grant us freedom from our worries, which in turn effects so many other areas of our lives.
10. If you could switch professions tomorrow, what would you do?
Answer: I think something with kids. They are usually brutally and/or beautifully honest and just seem to want to have fun first.
11. Coke or Pepsi? (If you say Pepsi, we will not be friends.)
Answer: Ha, how dare you Brooke. I still say Coke despite your warning.
I chose 11 nominees because I couldn’t limit myself to any less, ha. I barely sifted it to 11. Luckily some of my favs had over 300 members 🙂
