Thanks to Kailana from The Written World for nominating me for this award!

The rules are listed below:

"You must be a true Christmas lover to receive this award.
The person to whom you give the award must also be in love with Christmas.
Link back to the person who gave you the award. List 5 things that you love about Christmas. If you can't limit it to 5 things, then keep going till you run out of space! Pass the award along to as many people as you like. That can be 1 or 50. It's up to you! But keep the Christmas cheer going!

So here we go. Five things I love about Christmas:

1. Midnight Christmas mass

2. Putting up Christmas lights and decorating the tree

3. Listening to Christmas music

4. Baking goodies

5. Family get-togethers, esp. driving around & looking at lights

6. Visiting our friends' Christmas train display

7. Stuffing stockings

8. Listening to the kids try to oooh and aawww quietly while Hubby & I try to nap before getting up again

I nominate Tara Marie at Romance Reading Mom and Jenster at Jenster's Musings.

Merry Christmas Everyone!

Top 50 Listing

Bookwormom has been listed as a top 50 chick lit blog on Best Online Dating Sites, link in the title above, in the blog section. I have to say I love the subtitle "the love coach: helping nerds date." Emphasis mine. I don't think I've ever made a popular listing before, never mind a top 50. LOL :) There are other romance oriented blogs on their list, although many are much bigger and more popular than mine, so I can't help but wonder how they found me. Ah well, never look a gift horse in the mouth.

It's Book Blogger Appreciation Week

This is the inaugural year of Book Blogger Appreciation Week. I found out about it too late to nominate anyone, and then forgot to make a note of it, and thus I've missed the first few days. Looks like Amy's is a place to put on your feed reader or your blogroll or both in order to keep up with the suggestions and ideas.
