Pour offrir...

In the absence of grapes in season, here are some French sweets for the lovely - but flu-bound and suffering - llevinso at her incisive and always intelligent blog Sarcastic Female Literary Circle (here) who has sent a One Lovely Blog award my way.

By the power now vested in me, I am now passing it on to the following equally lovely bloggers, not all of them book sites but all worthy winners:

The Reading Life (here) where excellent literary discussion is carefully illustrated with relevant photographs.

Literary Endeavors (here) where Jennifer presides over lively and thought-provoking discussion.

Nature en Couleur (here) where the detailed and quirky photography is such fun you don't need to speak French to get it.

The Slight Detour (here) where Samantha Sotto-Yambao waits for her first novel to come out with excerpts of great charm and originality.

Forest Dream Weaver (here) where visual artist Ruby Elizabeth Littlejohn shares somes amazing images.

Fitzgerald Musings (here) where Laurie gives food for thought and imaginative photographic interpretations of the great F Scott Fitzgerald's oeuvre.

Serendipity's Library (here) for the joy of loving books and more besides.

Bookbelle (here) where I am a newcomer but already know that I will enjoy many literary reviews to come.
