Thanks Velvet.<\/p>\n<p>The rules for accepting the award are:<\/p>\n<ul>\n1) Accept the award, post it on your blog together with the name of the person who has granted the award and his or her blog link<br \/>\n2) Pass the award to 15 other blogs that you\u2019ve newly discovered.<br \/>\n3) Remember to contact the bloggers to let them know they have been chosen for this award.<\/ul>\n<p>As readers of my blog know, I&#8217;m pretty eclectic in my taste.
