Here’s a sampling of the delish foods from my week in the city so far….Indian, Mexican, Chinese.
A blogger friend of mine and fellow YA writer recently handed out blog awards.
I won her Versatile Blogger Award!
Thanks so much to JESSICA LESAICHERRE over at the Closet Writer blog.
She handed these awards out to fellow bloggers who helped her out on the writer part of her life. And I am going to pay it forward…
So I pass on The Versatile Blogger Award to:
I love your blogs. They provide a much needed escape and pick-me-up. They’ve gotten me through give-up-and-eat-a-pint-of-ice-cream-days. Thanks for keeping me company online.

Here are the rules for the award:
1. Thank and link to the person who nominated you.
2. Share seven random facts about yourself.
3. Pass the award along to five buddies whose blogs epitomize said theme.
