Awards, awards, and more awards

Lately I haven't been getting emails notifications for my Disqus comments, so I was all confused until it just occurred to me that they might be getting sent to spam!  I fished those out of there and found a lovely award email as well. :)  I've been putting off doing the awards post for a while now, so there's going to be a couple.  Just a warning.

From Ina of My Nail Polish Online I received both the Sunshine Award and the Best Blog award.  From Diana of D.I.A.N.A. I was awarded the Best Blog award.  Thank you girls!  The award I received seems to be a string of many awards.

Rules

• Thank the person who gave you this award
• Write a post about it
• Answer to the questions below
• Pass it on to 10 bloggers who you think really deserve it and send them message to let them know

Favorite color:  Turquoise and teals.

Favorite Animal:  Dogs, especially my dog Max.
Favorite number:  2 and sometimes 7.  I know 7 is cliche but hey.  My sister was born 10/10 and my brother 6/6, so I always wish I was born on 7/7 not 7/6. :P
What perfume am I using right now?  Dolce & Gabbana Light Blue.
Something you always wear with you and identifies you:  Hm...probably the ring my bf gave me.  We both wear matching silver bands.
What’s your passion?  I have many, but nail polish is definitely one of them now.

Getting or giving presents?  I'm going to be truthful, I love getting nail mail.  But getting stuff always makes me want to give back.
What was the last eyeshadow you used?  Clinique Sparkling Sage and French Vanilla.  I like earth tones.
Favorite day of the week:  Saturday.  It's the day you can do some carefree relaxing without worrying about the next day.

Are your nails painted right now? Yes, I’m still wearing Deborah Lippmann Forget You and Candy Shop.

Your favorite pet:  Max!
Black or white?  White, but black for clothes.  ^^
Your biggest fear is…  Bugs, especially spiders and centipedes or anything with way too many legs.  I also hate porcelain dolls.  They're creepy.

The 7 random things about myself:
1.  When I bring my index fingers together, the top half doesn't come together because they're crooked, especially my right pointer.
2.  I've been craving french macaroons lately.  Anyone have a good recipe?
3.  I have a spreadsheet where my lemmings are listed by brand.  It's ridiculously long.
4.  I love to cook and bake, but mostly bake.
5.  I have a soft spot for pretty packaging.
6.  I'm very interested in photography and hope to get a nice DSLR camera one day.
7.  If I were to have a super power it would be the ability to teleport with whatever I intend to bring with me.  That way I can travel around the world and bring back some souvenirs...like nail polish...and food. :)
