Spreading the Love Part III: The Food Stories Award


Over the last two months I've received three awards from my fellow bloggers, and I couldn't be more honored and humbled by all the love.  Thank you!  First, I've twice received the Sunshine Award (for spreading kindness and inspiration) from Judee at Gluten Free A-Z and Heather at Gluten Free Cat, second the Food Stories Award (for excellence in story telling) from Caralyn at Gluten Free Happy Tummy, and third the Addictive Blog Award (for interesting, creative content) from Minnie at The Lady 8 Home.  Now it's my turn to spread some love...and you know I'm always up for that.  In this post I pass on the Food Stories Award.  See here for Spreading the Love Part I (The Sunshine Award) and here for Part II (The Addictive Blog Award).  

Award #3:
The Food Stories Award
(Excellence in Storytelling Award, nominated by Caralyn at Gluten Free Happy Tummy).  Check out her blog when you get a chance.  It's full of amazing recipes, including BED and SCD.  Thanks you, Caralyn! 
My nomination for The Food Stories Award:
Farty Girl 

When I received this award I immediately knew which blogger I wanted to nominate.  She's one of my favorite bloggers with food stories that can make me both sink deep into thought or laugh out loud.  I love her honest, authentic posts that are generally a mix of healthy recipes, thoughts on life, what she's struggling with and/or conquering, and of course, toots.  It's Farty Girl my friends, and if you haven't had the pleasure of visiting her blog, you must do so.  I greatly admire her unwavering dedication to healing her IBS, and her journey to find the best balance of all things health.  She also reminds me of some of my closest "real life" friends, so I can't help lovin' this girl.  So thank you Farty Girl for always inspiring me, and sharing your smart, fun and REAL stories on love, life, food (and toots).
