An Award for And then they start to sparkle! Actually twice - because it's sweet..

Katy Mayıs 03, 2022

AND THEN THEY START TO SPARKLE just hit the jackpot!!

which means: Yay, awards again!!!! Thank you all soooo much!!

(but I'll still go on and write - won't stop me just throwing awards at me.. oh, no!!)

Monty @ ALL GOOD THINGS gave this "THE IRRESISTIBLY SWEET BLOG AWARD" to this blog:

- while Dawn @ NOIR AND FLICK CHICKS gave this "THE IRRESISTIBLY SWEET BLOG AWARD":

The rules are the same - that's why I think it's the same award - just "dressed" differently.

Anyway - Dawn and Monty both had the nicest words for me and this blog - and I don't know how to say thank you in a more adequate way..

So for I know (like everyone else does who at least one time peeked at his blog) that Monty is a big fan of Cary Grant - and after a little research (yeah.. ok.. I asked Monty..) I found out that Dawn likes Doris Day ...

Dear Dawn and dear Monty:

Just like Doris Day and Cary Grant you two are a great team - so: This one is for you!

Ok - enough fun - here we go:

The rules

1) Thank and link to the person who nominated you.

2) Share 7 random facts about yourself.

3) Pass the award to 12 of your blogging buddies.

4) Notify the recipients

1. The persons who nominated this blog:

Ok - here we go: Thank you very much, Dawn @ NOIR AND CHICK FLICKS ( - Don't you all just adore this blog title??) and Monty @ ALL GOOD THINGS for passing these awards to this blog!

2. Seven random facts about me:

I am very inconsequent. Ask me something - ask me again five minutes later: It's like talking to another person, I am afraid..
I love to take cold showers - let's be honest: sometimes I am a bit "shy" to take them (It's ice cold water - for heaven's sake!!) - but afterwards I am just feeling great.. (It's ice cold water - for heaven's sake!!)
My favourite melody is PERFIDIA - especially the original version of Xavier Cugat..

When my sister and I watched UP (2009) in cinema - I cried during almost all of the movie.. (Yes, I am talking about that Disney Pixar film..)
My refrigerator is filled with several flacons perfume and also some packages of my favourite juice (= apricot-orange) - and not much else.
I wear a green ring for some years now - and: No, I had no idea about the connection to GREEN LANTERN.. ~ "someone" out there had to tell me.. ~ ;")

(yeah, this is actually me.. blimey.. Irene has a face!! well.. kind of..
and right now the green ring has the place of the black one - which is now resting in "happy ring-ing ground" or where ever little broken rings go to..)

I don't know how many films, books, plants or heels (= all things which I love..) I've got - but I am pretty sure that I live with just two cats..
