Somebody Thinks Average Jane is Excellent

Jenny on the Spot was kind enough to nominate me for the Excellent Blog Award. Actually, she did it more than a month ago, so I know I look like a lazy ingrate waiting this long to accept. I apologize for that.

As part of the terms of accepting this award, I must pass on the rules:

1. Identify the originator of this award, and link so she can get her well-deserved traffic. It's Kayla at Project Mommy. Great idea, Kayla!
2. Pass on at least 10 Excellent Blog Awards.

I don't know if I've mentioned my RSS feed totals lately, but I'm up to 639. That makes it quite a challenge to choose award winners, so I'm going to limit myself to people I've met in person. Even so, I'm sure to leave out a bunch of great blogs, so please don't be offended if you're not on the list.

Without further ado and in no particular order, here are my Excellent Blog Award picks:

• Everyday Goddess
• Rancid Raves
• Surrender, Dorothy
• Tales from Clark Street
• Red Stapler
• Secondhand Tryptophan
• The Wonderful World of Des
• CUSS & Other Rants
• ByJane
• Not Just About Cancer
• Diva Marketing Blog
• Lip-Sticking
• Marketing Roadmaps

It's worth pointing out that with the exception of two people on the list, I met everyone else at one of the BlogHer Conferences. If you're trying to talk yourself into going, there's the best reason I can think of!

I can say amen to Rancid Raves and Tales from Clark Street--they're two I'm familiar with and love. Good call.

[Karl]

Well, thanks very much! Most kind of you. I'll do my best to pass on the award to worthy folks. You're already taken, though.

Hmmm, 10 more...

[laurie]

Gee, thanks. And here I was just thinking how much I love my fix of your blog...

[Jennifer H]

Well, I read byJane daily (she deserves this, good choice), and I look forward to checking out some of the others.

[Toby]

Average Jane you are way far from Average! Congrats! and thanks for the honor. I too met some great peeps at BlogHer (smile).

[Yvonne DiVita]

Wow, what a compliment! I echo Toby... you are far from average. Your blog is a fav...because it makes me laugh, and sometimes you post great recipes. I love this blog!

[dorothy]

I am not worthy!

Awww thanks!
I really want to go to this year's BlogHer, but I can't afford it. So I'll be there in spirit.

[Susan Getgood]

So behind in my reading -- thanks so much for the compliment.

I'm in the "more than 500" feeds group too, but I always try to stop by your blog at least a couple times per week.

Dude... I'm over 400... no pressure here :) Never pressure :) Hope all is well...

Hey, thanks!

I just blogged about it, which has got to be a promptness record for me. :)
