		<description>Hi Anna, I loved getting your list - especially because these were blogs I was unfamiliar with. Thanks! And congrats on the Silver Lining award!

		<description>Andrea, I know exactly what you mean about a blog feeling &quot;comfortable&quot; - that&#039;s exactly why I picked your blog and the four others, because I feel like your personalities all come across so clearly. It&#039;s so nice to have fellow writers to commiserate with. :-)

Caroline, you&#039;re very welcome. This is why I love blog awards, because you get to find out about other great blogs.

Thanks Karen! I&#039;m so glad we book twins were able to find each other on the interwebs!</description>

		<description>Well, get ready to blush some more, Anna. I never miss reading your posts because they not only inform and inspire me like Nelsa said, but they&#039;re also comfortable. It&#039;s as if I&#039;ve known you for years and we&#039;re meeting over a cup of tea. I bet a lot of your readers feel that way, too.

Thank you so much for picking my blog—what a lovely surprise! I sure am in great company!</description>

		<description>Wow, Anna! I&#039;m so touched - really what a lovely surprise to come home to after a weekend away at hockey arenas! 

Well, I&#039;m not surprised you got the Silver Lining award from Heather. Even though we&#039;ve never met I can tell from your blog and your presence on Twitter and on the BB&#039;s that you are truly a sweetheart.

Your blog always informs and inspires me too. Thanks for your support!</description>
