I have, in the past received this honor (or something like it) from bloggers & friends. In the past I haven't posted a response because the request was for personal information that I wasn't comfortable sharing online. This one however from the talented Lea Avroch of LA Jewelry Designs ( http://lajewelrydesign.blogspot.com/) is one I can do.
I read her post there and I have to post 7 of my favorite things and then give the award to 7 other blogs.
So because I like to post about things that educate I will post my 7 favorite things along with a link so that you can learn more about them - maybe they will soon be on your list!
I love learning new things - I know - I'm a geek :D
