Due to technical difficulties we’ve had to repost, as the first cut off some of our content. Thanks for you patience, dear readers! 🙂

Isn’t it great, that we articulate? Isn’t it grand? That you can understand. We don’t snort, we don’t eep, we don’t even squeak or squawk. When we wanna say something, we open up our blog and talk, we can talk, we can talk, talk, talk, we can…
talk! Wilbur~E.B.White’s Charlotte’s Web.

Egos enlarging, confidence soaring and our writing room just doesn’t seem to have the space for our ballooned heads. There’s a steady stream of fan mail and the paparazzi are practically falling over themselves to get a picture of the mother-daughter team that is dominating the world wide web while fashionably making a name for themselves. The gorgeous blonde duo smile as they accept the nomination.

“What did you say? Blonde?! Mathair….did they say blonde? But we’re brunettes! What about the brunette, mother-daughter writing team? Who the hell are the two gorgeous blondes?!

Calm down babygirl. They’re talking about Goldie Hawn & Kate Hudson. But no worries, Inion. Because we’ve been nominated as well. And for a doozy! It would seem that the wonderful CeeLee, http://swimintheadultpool.com/ has honored us with the “Versatility Award”
So first off, to CeeLee, we would like to give you a big Thanks for making us feel so proud to have been nominated by a fellow writer we both admire and respect.

For those of you that don’t know CeeLee, we ask you to visit her blog, where she shares her journey of how to follow your dreams while balancing her gift of writing, along with her other, motherhood. And within that, showing all of us how to laugh at the little problems while laughing harder at the big ones. Writer, mother, blogger, friend….CeeLee makes life look positively brilliant in all it’s glorious flaws and humour.

Now as for the Award.

1.) RANDOM AWESOMENESS:
{INION} I’ve collected lighters since I was ten. From Bic’s to Zippos and even those nifty novelty torches. I have over five hundred that have taken over my room. From the Statue of Liberty, to a bicycle and shrimp. What’s random about that? I don’t smoke and detest it!

2.) {Mathair} Plays guitar and has since she was ten. Although she doesn’t like playing out, she plays for her family.

Guitar

3.) {Inion} I’m obsessed with the Food Network and more importantly…FOOD! I have been told by others that my relationship with food is “inappropriate.” I love food!!

4.) {Mathair} Mathair has a horrible fear of snakes. Which is rather ironic given she’s a born and bred Florida girl and the swamp land is crawling with them.

5.) {Inion} I’m a four-eyed, comic reading, book-worm that was born into a family of jocks, cheerleaders, beauty pageant queens and drummer!

6.) {Mathair} Is one of the few women I know, that absolutely loves winter and everything about it. The grayer and colder the better. She’s the only person I know that prays for blizzards. (I pray for blizzards as well, but they usually have a Dairy Queen logo on them.)

7.) {Inion & Mathair} We’re horror fanatics. Books, movies, music, art, we love anything and everything dark and creepy. No shortage of blood and the freakish either. We’re not into PG scares. and, though we prefer the supernatural, we share the love for the classic slashers as well.
