Bookworm Award

Kathi at Lavender, Lace, and Thyme tagged me for this Bookworm award! It looks like fun - and I love to read. Thanks, Kathi, to including me in your tag. I have so enjoyed Kathi's posts!

Here's how it goes.
Pass this on to 5 blogging friends.
Open the closest book to you, not your favorite or most intellectual book, but the book closest to you at the moment, to page 56.
Write out the 5th sentence, as well as two to five sentences following that...

The book nearest me is: I'll Bring the Chocolate by Karen Porter

"Dee's rich, caring words were like a chocolate kiss with an almond buried deep inside. Chocolate-kiss encouragers are devoted and kind and know when to offer sympathetic words and actions. An encourager cherishes the opportunity to care."

I will pass this on to:


Charlotte at Charlotte's Weblog



Have fun! If there is anyone else that would like to do this, please add it to your blog and let me know. Have a great day!

Thanks for the tag, Ruthie. This looks like fun. It's kinda funny though. The book closest to me is not really a book to read as much as it is a book to look at the pictures. This will be a little different when I post it. I love your chocolate comments. I should have had that book and had it nearby. Although, then my comments would be the same as yours which is not good. Oh well, life gets interesting.
Hugs,
Charlotte

Hi, Ruthie, Thanks again for the award, and I'm returning the favor. Before I could get your award posted, I received another award on my At Home in Scottsdale blog. You can find it at http://athomeinscottsdale.blogspot.com/

Hi Ruthie,

This looks like fun - I LOVE books and reading (even have a blog dedicated to reading). I think I may do this soon too - will let you know when I post it though. Can't use the book closest to me because its a homeschool catalog. I have a bunch of books on a shelf on top of my desk, but I think I might cheat to grab one with something good to share...so I think I will grab and handful and ask my daughter to pick one for me...

Oh has your grand-daughter had the baby yet? I have 23 days to go...give or take a week or so...
