Yesterday kicked off football season. In my house, it was about FOOTBALL. For my guy that is. Well, today is the beginning of BBAW and to kick it off, we get to send a shout out to the blogs we love.

You are so kind! Thank you!
Thanks, Susan! Not sure I'll get to my own version of this post today (we just got back last night and are starting (home)school at my house today, plus I have mixed feelings about singling some out and leaving out others) but you are definitely on my "shortlist" for Best community builder, Best commenter, and Best multicultural blog. You rock!
When I saw beter than football. I was like, What! Than I clicked on the list, and it holds its own with any given Sunday.
Thanks for including me, with some other wonderful blogs. Looking forward to checking out a few of the blogs I am not familiar with.
Is your guy a Tigers fan? Will they win a game this year?
I believe I am literally blushing. Thank you.
Thank you for the mention along with some other great blogs! I shared the love here.
Aww, thank you so much, Susan! And boy do I really hope Color Online wins Most Altruistic Blog for BBAW!! Color Online totally deserves it.
And I meant Lions not Tigers. The Tigers are baseball. My bad.
Thanks for the shout out Susan - and for all the blogs that I know must follow-up on!!
I've got LotusReads on my blogroll. Definitely excellent writing and reviews. I also promo'd her in tomorrow's interview post.

I ditto the *blushing* emotion. :) I thought the post was going to be about Serena's rant, then started to see some goodies. ;) Wow! What an awesome list. Thanks so much for including me! -Amy
Thanks so much Susan! :D
And I have some new blogs to explore! Yay!
What a great post! You really took this meme to the max! :)
Hi J.T.,
Friends mean everything to me so yes, I put in some effort to acknowledge many of the people and spaces I enjoy and admire. I hope readers will venture beyond what they know and discover new spaces to explore.
Come often and sit a spell with us. We'd love your company.
Gracias!! I feel very honored, thanks for the support to My World/Mi Mundo!!
How do you follow so many great blogs! I'm impressed, and honored to be included--thanks!
Awww, thank you!
Wow, it's so great that you recommended so many people. I'll be checking out those that are new to me!
What an awesome list. I discovered a few new blogs thanks to you.
Reading everyone's posts has been so much fun. You've given me lots of new blogs to explore.
Hi Susan,
Wow not one, not two, but three slots. Wow I am so amazed that people notice what I try to do. I don't know why. And I'm with the "blushing" ladies from up above.
Thank you so much for making this list and for including me.

Wow, I kind of did a double-take there when I saw my blog. Thanks so much for including me, and great lists! :)
Thanks for the linky love! We're honored to be on your list twice!!
Thank you, Susan.
Allison, Mary Lee and Niranjana et al,
You're welcome. While I like a lot of people, I think my friends know that I don't blow sunshine(and they know I can be crude). lol I listed you all because I think you all make important, relevant contributions to the blogging community.
The thanks is owed to you. I have learned and enjoyed a lot because of what you do.
That's an excellent list, Susan. You highlighted some fantastic bloggers.
Glad you enjoy my giveaways :) I try to make them fun and unique.
Thanks, Susan!
Wow, what a wonderful list of resources. Thanks so much for compiling the list and for including RAWSISTAZ! I appreciate it. This should be shared with everyone interested in literature!!
