F-Word Awards

F-word Winners

Congratulations to the winners of the very first F-word Awards!

A special congrats to fern and debeauxOs at Birth Pangs.

Heather Mallick weighs in with a beautiful letter which reads in part

Women’s voices aren’t heard. But we changed that in the world of the feminist blogosphere. It might be that our
words flow digitally and are unseen in transmission so that when they try to silence us, it’s like catching fireflies with a baseball glove. How ham-fisted, how ambitious, those censors are.

Never again let the question be asked, ‘where are the good women bloggers?’

Code and Colours and Crying; Oh My!

Spent a busy weekend updating Bread and Roses.

We now have updated software and whole new look. In fact 3 whole new looks as there are 3 styles to choose from.

Some minor tweaking still being done.

Total hours slept….maybe 10.

I want to thank our Techno God Steve for going above and beyond in helping with this install.

In other news April Reign has squeaked by into the finals at the F-word Awards.

Final vote is Feb 22-23 go support your favourite radical!

Thank You!

Thank you to those who nominated me over at the F-Word Awards (Best Blogs Awards EVER!)

By way of thank you I give you one of my all time favourite songs, Thank You by Led Zeppelin

If the sun refused to shine, I would still be loving you.
When mountains crumble to the sea, there will still be you and me.

Kind woman, I give you my heart, Kind woman, nothing more.

Little drops of rain whisper of the pain, tears of loves lost in the days gone by.
My love is strong, with you there is no wrong,
together we shall go until we die. My, my, my.
An inspiration is what you are to me, inspiration, look… see.

And so today, my world it smiles, your hand in mine, we walk the miles,
Thanks to you it will be done, for you to me are the only one.
Happiness, no more be sad, happiness….I’m glad.
If the sun refused to shine, I would still be loving you.
When mountains crumble to the sea, there will still be you and me.
