Liebster Blog Award + Wonderful Team Member Readership Award

Reading lovely comments and messages from readers of Honey & Lulu never fails to put us in a good mood, and after coming across two comments from the gorgeous Bec, author of Daisy and the Fox, we were put in an ultra happy mood. Bec has very kindly nominated us for two more awards! We are again so grateful to have been recognised in this way for our blog, after only being online for nearly a year now. We wanted to take this opportunity to thank each and every one of you that read and comment on our posts – it is such a joy to know that others like and support what we’re doing, and we love reading the positive feedback that Honey & Lulu receives.

Bec is not only a fantastic blogger, but also a very close friend of ours, and is always posting the most tantalising recipes and beautiful photos on Daisy and the Fox. We love stopping by her blog whenever we get the chance, and highly recommend that you all do too!

-----

The first award we received was the Liebster Blog Award. A Liebster Blog Award is given to talented bloggers who have less than 200 followers. ‘Liebster’ is a German word that means ‘Dearest’, but also means ‘Favourite’. So, in a way, the award not only recognises these bloggers as amazingly gifted in their own right, but also as your very own personal favourites.


The rules to keep this award going are as follows:

- Add the award icon to your blog
- Link to your nominator to say thank you
- Answer the questions the nominator has set for you, and create 11 questions for your own nominees to answer
- Choose 11 bloggers with less than 200 followers, go to their blog and tell them about the award


Questions from Daisy and the Fox:

1. Warm or hot weather? Warm
2. Lamp or candle? Lamp
3. Beach or snow? Beach
4. Mac or Windows? Mac
5. Fruit or vegetables? Both – fruit is a great, healthy snack during the day, but no meal is complete without a side of vegetables!
6. Movies or books? Movies
7. Dancing or singing? Singing (in private… aka, the shower!)
8. Vintage or modern? Definitely a mixture of both – old and new are a classic combination
9. Shopping or TV? Shopping, most definitely! However we really do enjoy TV...
10. Red or blue? Blue
11. Smoothie or milkshake? Milkshake (vanilla, always!)


Questions for Nominees:

1. Summer or winter?
2. What’s your all-time favourite movie?
3. Facebook or Twitter?
4. New York, Paris or London?
5. What's your favourite Christmas carol?  
6. Which iPhone app do you use most often?
7. Breakfast, lunch or dinner?
8. What’s your favourite holiday destination?
9. Online shopping or offline shopping?
10. What’s your favourite lifestyle brand?
11. Black & white, or colour photography?


The deserving recipients we have chosen to award are:
-----
The second award we received was the Wonderful Team Member Readership Award. To quote the creator of this award, “As bloggers, we are also readers. That is a part of blogging as listening is a part of speaking”.

The rules are simple – pass on the award to 14 nominees!
-----

Congratulations to all that have been nominated for these awards – each blog is most certainly deserving of either acknowledgement!
Hoping you all had a wonderful weekend, and thank you once again to Bec for nominating Honey & Lulu for both the Liebster Blog Award, and the Wonderful Team Member Readership Award!
