A Sunny Surprise

I am honored and delighted that fellow blogger Tracey has nominated me for the Sunshine Award… how super-cool is that!  Thanks so much, Tracey.  Be sure to check out her blog, Trace in the Kitchen here.  It’s filled with food, travel, and terrific commentary!

4. Answer the questions below, which are designed to help people get to know you better.
