Here is how the Brilliant Weblog Award works . . .

The person giving the award chooses blogs that they consider brilliant in their content or design. In return, the recipient is expected to choose a minimum of 5-7 blogs that they like. They leave comments on these blogs to notify the winners. They then post about receiving the award on their blog (like this) and list their choices with links. They also include a mention of whom they received the award and include a link. Pictures are great, but not necessary.

Here are the 5 "brilliant" blogs to which I would like to pass this award along:

1. Toni at
A Daily Dose of Toni

2. Aggie at The universe according to Agata

3. Darcie at Mommy on the edge

4. Denise at Laughing with spoons

5. Last, but not least!
