you can go with this - or your can go with that

just home from sushi rock with bird and ma'lady. mmm mmm good. i seriously think i could drink the rock's spicy mayo through a straw i love it so much. wait, that's kind gross now that i think about it.

anyways, on to a whole bunch of business and lots and lots of link love.

do you like my layout?!? i sure do. and that reason i like it so much is because the lovely jess from delicious design studio created it for me. this girls rocks, she is completely helpful, professional and quite cost effective. so jess is currently holding a contest where she is asking her fellow bloggers to write a post linking to her site. she will track the referring links then ta-dah, she will have her winner of a brand new custom blog design! now i'm not really looking to win, because i haven't had this design for all that long, and i still love it. but i couldn't not help spread the word because well frankly i wanna send as much business to her as possible.

so check her out, you won't be disappointed!

next item of business.

one of my new favorite blogs is to kiss the cook and upon checking out TKTC's new posting this morning i was giddy with her love for all things greek and the shout out she gave me. although, how could one not have a crush on all things greek?

so my dear friends and family that love their greekness as much as i do, you must read her post!

next item of business.

I WON AN AWARD!!!!!!

yes my dear freaders, i AM somebody.

my favoritest maxie presented me with blog of distinction award. yeah you read that right... DISTINCTION. yeah, it makes me giggle too. but in all sorts of wonderful ways!


now the rules say that i have to present this award to 5 of my favorite blogs that i think are oh so full of distinction.

i'm gonna add a twist to it. why? because i can, and it is my award to pass out.

i'm going to focus only on northeast ohio bloggers. because frankly, i'm one hell of a cleveland cheerleader. and also, the majority of my favorite bloggers have already received this award a couple of times so why not spread the love? so check out these awesome blogs and send um all the traffic they deserve.

confessions of a cohabitant - basically she cracks me the hell up, and i think we would be friends in real life. also, she likes shoes - lots of shoes.
white collar redneck - dude, i wanna put you in my pocket and have you make me laugh all day. is that weird? it's ok if it is.
yes, i'm judging you - anyone that posts videos of himself dancing and singing at the bar is pretty damn cool in my book.
cleveland foodie - this lady made me wanna start a blog, so you can thank her. i also want to go out to dinner with the cleveland foodie and confessions of a cohabitant. why? because i think it would be fun!
chef's widow - i know her! and she just got a rockin' new look for her blog, check it out.
life, liberty and the pursuit of your boyfriend - one of the first cleveland blogs i read, she's like the OG of cleveland rockstar bloggers
cleveland bachelor - because well he is in the same boat as me but a guy version!

finally i leave you all with the most brilliant piece of commercial advertising i have seen in a long time. this commercial cracks me up on so many different levels. i keep watching it over and over and over again.

watch it, you MUST!
