Liliana, I just came over to tell you that there’s an award for you on my blog and I discover that you’ve given me one. Thank you so much! The “Blogging With a Purpose” award means a lot to me, and I especially like that you gave it to me for my contributions to the Blogger Aid cookbook. 🙂 Come on over and collect your award.
MeetaK says
oh Liliana this is so wonderful and thoughtful of you! Blush! Thanks for this one!
Engineer Baker says
Thank you so much for the award! I must admit, I probably won’t pass it on – I just have too hard of a time picking who to give it to 🙂
Zoe Francois says
Hi Liliana,
Thank you so very very much. I’m so glad you like my website, what an honor. You have made my day! 🙂
Ivy says
Liliana, thanks very much for the Blogging for a Purpose Award. Thanks for being a member of BloggerAid and spreading the word around. The title you have given Gloria is cute, but there are no Head Chefs in BloggerAid. All members are important and each one is contributing equally. I think I will blog about this one on BloggerAid on behalf of the three of us.
Bellini Valli says
We really appreciate the Blogging with a Purpose Award Liliana. The Cookbook project is a collaboration from all bloggers but BlooggerAid itself we have worked very hard on as a place for bloggers with simple and similar goals to unite to help those who may need a little boost.
