I have selected my favorite blogs that I regularly read to receive this award:

All D's D is a kind, loyal friend, and a prolific commenter. An all-around wonderful woman who doesn't see her own worth by half. And she doesn't hold grudges when our politics disagree.

LL is an old friend and a mysterious man who can't tell you what he used to do for a living. :D

I Am Harriet is my newest blogging guru, and she's teaching me about networking and Technorati authority.

Julia, at Sometimes Lucid because in my opinion, she's always lucid, and her posts make so much sense to me.

"Infertile Ground on which I tread, and sometimes kneel." There are no words.

And Lisa
and Maisy, two of the sweetest, kindest, real-mommy friends you will ever meet.
