Butterflies in December

Both hornblower at HMS Indefatigable, another erratic blogger, and Lynn at bore me to tears have welcomed me back with a Butterfly Award for “the coolest blog I know”.  Many thanks, hornblower and Lynn.

Here’s the award as it appears at HMS Indefatigable, edited and grammatically correct (!),

and here are the rules:

Link to the person who gave it to you

Post the (updated) graphic

Pass it on to 10 other bloggers (hornblower selected only five and she’s still standing, so if you’re not up to selecting 10, don’t fret)

Here are my 10, provided — as I mentioned to hornblower — I can remember how to get into my Bloglines account.

In alphabetical order:

Susan at Chicken Spaghetti, one of the best children’s book bloggers and urban chicken wranglers going.  Susan also loves, loves, loves compiling very helpful lists.

A twofer: Kathy Ceceri’s Home Biology and Home Chemistry blogs (don’t miss Kathy’s recent post about MAKE Magazine’s Chemistry Gift Guide)

Adrienne at Homeschooling and Libraries, the librarian all home schoolers dream about

Jen Robinson’s Book Page, another one of the best children’s book bloggers going

My pal Frankie at Kitchen-Table Learners

Ed Darrell at Millard Fillmore’s Bathtub

Kris Bordessa at Paradise Found, and not because she recently singled me out as one of her Faithful Five (Kris, you’re the faithful one sticking with Farm School…).  By the way, check out the list of her family’s favorite Christmas books on her sidebar on the right side.

Fiddler at Rockhound Place, who is running a special series of posts on Holiday Music

The peripatetic L. at Schola

JoVE at Tricotomania and more — knitting, home schooling, politics, and more.  Cool and Canadian.

I still have so many more favorite blogs, as you can see from the sidebar at right, but that’s 10. So I’ll plead jet lag and a long list of things to do.

Oh, and one final thank you, to Dale McGowan at the Meming of Life blog and guest poster JJ Ross of Cocking a Snook! for including Farm School in the recent post featuring “a grab bag of 15 smartly secular homeschooling blogs”.  You warmed the cockles of my little secular heart!
