Karla was so kind as to honor me with a thank you by giving me a Happy 101 award. Thank you Karla! Nice looking award, look at them cup cakes. I like cup cakes, and they have sprinkles too! Zero calories if you just look, or if you try & lick them off of the monitor screen. Not that I tried, serious, I didn't.
OK, awards are fun, and awards have rules. Rules by definition are not always fun, but remember, these rules came with a picture of cup cakes, so I dig in to them with pleasure; the rules that is..
First, I need to state 10 things I like...
- Greek Yogurt (recently discovered awesomness)
- Alternative History author Harry Turtledove
- Hunting (just deer hunting now, next year going to turkeys too)
- NASCAR & Roush Fenway Racing (greatest sport on the planet)
- Real BBQ'ing (especially ribs & shoulder, if I didn't need money I'd do it at a competitive level)
- Hockey & the Chicago Blackhawks (2nd greatest sport on the planet)
- Exercise (Yep, never thought I'd say that, but I have come to like it)
- Darts (my father played for money, I play with the kids to be a more connected father)
- Collecting Hot Sauce (collection is almost at 300 bottles now, I'll get some pics of it soon)
- Franks for the Memories (Best wings on the planet)
Second, I need to pass this award on to 10 other bloggers I wish to share some cup cake happiness with...
Thanks again Karla!
Everyone, whatever it is you choose to do today; enjoy!

ReplyDeleteCongrats on the award! You deserve it! I don't like any of the 10 things you like, but I like you! (reminds me of Bert & Ernie a bit)
Hey young man, you played soccer and exercised - give yourself a break eh!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteKeep those pounds coming off. Someone told me one time - "You can rest when you die..." Patrick keep up all the good progress!
ReplyDeleteI made cupcakes yesterday for the kids, can't believe I have no interest in eating one which is I guess is a good thing?
ReplyDeleteLove Greek yogurt too. Congrats on your award and having another great day!
I also love Hockey (canadian girl, I even have played in the past), love exercise, and LOVE hot sauce! Friends love our selection when they come for supper. ok, off to do my list!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on the award! A good friend of mine is a big fan of Harry Turtledove (he even managed to persuade a sci-fi-hating person like me to read 'Replay' by Ken Grimwood) so maybe I will give one of these books a try... :o)
ReplyDeletePatrick, you seemed to have the eating thing down pat now. Good job! Karla gave me the Happy 101 Award too (Thanks, Karla) - but I have no clue how to post the picture or anything. I need a blog 101 lesson. LOL You are a hot sauce collector? Have you ever visited the Pepper Palace? You can taste samples before buying! They have a wonderful store in St. Augustine, and one in TN too. I think they are probably listed online, though I haven't checked that out.
ReplyDeleteYou get so many awards that we will know every little thing about you soon! ;-) Love it!
ReplyDeleteAaaawww...thanks for the award. Am I the only one that doesn't like greek yogurt? Tried some a couple weeks ago...blech! I used to be a big hockey fan but then the strike and well, you know...
ReplyDeleteDan, LOL, I should have been clearer... in the a.m. I dropped off my kids at soccer practice and in the p.m. I had a kids soccer game to attend. I do not play soccer. Not yet anyhow :-)
ReplyDeleteIm such a goofball, didn't even notice my name was on the award list. It was early,lol. Thank you so much. Its my first award...kinda cool! :) have a great day!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the award. :) I'll be passing it on in a couple days.
ReplyDeletePlease post the bottles of hot sauce. My hubby would love to see it. Keep on with your excellent day, Patrick.
ReplyDeletemmmm hot sauce! I don't think there is much that I eat that doesn't need a little cajun hot sauce !
ReplyDeleteSounds like a good day!
ReplyDeleteHi Patrick,
ReplyDeleteThanks for "tagging us." I am a little tied up now, but will get to it soon. And thanks for supporting our site with your well thought out and humorous comments.
Thanks for the award, I love cup cakes--did licking the screen at least get your screen clean?? On your list, the author immediately caught my fancy. I've already spend more than my daily alloted quota of time on amazon deciding which one I want to read first. Any suggestions? (missing be a librarian today)
ReplyDeleteyeah add Laughing Cow to hot Green Beans, cheezy hot green beans and you won't be tempted by the evil butter!!
ReplyDeleteWay to go Patrick, I probably would have just sat there and waited for the game to start, you went and exercised!!!!
ReplyDeletePatrick, thanks. You're really a model of blogging and keeping up with everybody. I loved hockey growing up in Philly, but since I've moved to Seattle, it's hard to come by.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on your award! I play darts with my kids, too (well, hardly kids anymore--daughter 19, son 17). It's the one of the few things I can beat them in! LOL
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the award, Patrick. You are one of my favorite bloggers...always funny and always insightful.
ReplyDeleteAlso, congrats on the 2XL...it is a great feeling indeed.
Thanks for passing on the award, Patrick. I'll answer it when I catch myself long enough to think up 10 things.
ReplyDeleteP, you'd better read my post today to see what DH had to say about you. :-)
