I’d like to thank Moky and Marisa for nomination Jubilee Journey for the Liebster Award. I am honored. I had no idea what this award was for or what Liebster meant so I of course Googled it. Liebster is a German word meaning dearest, beloved. What a nice thought. There seems to be no consensus on how this award came about or its original context so I’m going with what I read at Sweet Parrish Place: the “award is presented as a way to acknowledge up and coming bloggers and to help them be recognized for their outstanding accomplishments.”
Of course there are rules so here they are
1. Each blogger should post 11 random facts about themselves.
2. Answer the questions the tagger has set for you, and then create 11 new questions for the bloggers you pass the award to.
3. Choose 11 new bloggers (with less than 200 followers) to pass the award to and link them in your post.
4. Go back to their page and tell them about the award.
5. No tag backs.

Questions asked by Moky and Marisa
