Let’s hear it for procrastination vegetation in one heaping bite!

And now on to the Awards

(Please note these are random in order, and I beg extreme forgiveness in my semi-annual event of delayed postings.)

But first, I would like to extend great recognition to all the bloggers listed below, their hard work and inspiration to WordPress/myself over the many months this past year has been exceptional. I pray my tardiness has not dimmed their opinion of me or is by any way a reflection on their merits. Each and every one of these sites are fabulous, and I would ask everyone to stop by and check them out!
