Big thanks today to Wyndy Dee for nominating Writing in the House of Dreams for the Super Sweet Blogging Award. How gorgeous! More about Wyndy here http://wyndydee.wordpress.com/about/

The rules: Thank (and link) the person who Awarded it to you (see above!) Nominate 12 people and ask them these simple questions…here they are, with my answers.

1. Cookies or Cake? Whichever is the most chocolatey (obviously!)
2. Chocolate or Vanilla? A marriage made in heaven – both at once is best
3. Favorite Sweet Treat? Rhubarb crumble and Cornish clotted cream
4. When do you crave sweet things the most? At emotional extremes – when I feel either on top of the world or down in the dumps
5. Sweet Nick Name? I wish I had one. Today in the Rocky Valley tearooms near Tintagel, the waitress kept calling me honey, and I thought that was nice

Now then, my own nominees for the Super Sweet Award…

This time, I’m going for family and children’s-writer friends – I wish they could all come for cake in the House of Dreams!
