And the second is Kreativ Blogger from Stephanie at Through The Eyes of a Stranger.
Thank you so much fellow-blogging ladies! I really appreciate them, yay for blog awards! But it's not over. No, no. I don't just get to put these lovely awards on my blog, I get to pass them on too! But first I have some other requirements I need to fulfill.
So here are the Honest Scrap stipulations:
1) Choose a minimum of 7 blogs that you find brilliant in content or design
2) Show the 7 winners names and links on your blog, and leave a comment informing them that they have won the "Honest Scrap" award.
3) List at least 10 honest things about yourself.
Here are the blogs I award with Honest Scrap. I chose these blogs because of their honest and courageous posts:
10 Honest Things About Me:
1. I have hairs that grow out of a mole on my chin. Ewww. It's supposed to be very lucky in Chinese culture but it's just plain gross in mine so I choose to pluck!
2. I hate cleaning. I'm very lazy when it comes to tidying-up but I swear my husband has OCD so I just leave him to it.
3. I have a little pot-belly. No matter what I do it's always there.
4. Honestly, I have crazy frizzy hair but I straighten it all the time, thank the Lord for straighteners.
5. I am a chocoholic and it's been two months since I began the chocolate embargo. I have broken the embargo a total of four times.
6. I am addicted to Lost, Desperate Housewives, Ugly Betty and now, the Wire.
7. When I was little I used to pee in pools (I don't anymore... only in the sea).
8. I am not putting in enough effort to learn Arabic.
9. Someone recently told me that there are 14 healthy newborn-babies in an orphanage in Marrakech who need parents. I cried. I know that one way or another we have to adopt.
10. Although I have a smile on my face everyday, inside I feel like there's a dark cloud inside me that will never lift until I hold our baby (be it ours biologically or not) in my arms.
There you go, blogosphere. Honest and Scrappy.
For the Kreativ Blogger award the rules of acceptance are simple: list seven things you love and then pass the award to seven blogs you love.
I love...
1) my fantabulous Mr.T
2) freshly-baked chocolate brownies straight from the oven, still gooey in the middle
3) seeing my students' faces when they read a sentence for the first time
4) diving into a swimming pool on a very hot day
5) seeing snow on the Atlas mountains in Marrakech
6) cooking in the kitchen and listening to BBC radio 4 on the internet
7) dancing like a lunatic when I think no one is watching (I hope!)
Now here's for seven fantabulous blogs that I love:
It's Award season folks!

Thank you for the award!!!
Holy Moly!!!! Thanks for the award! I am completely humbled. And congratulations on yours, you definitely deserve them. I love all the pictures you adapt to your posts. You have a unique and hilarious way of getting your point across with them.
P.S. I am a recovering chocoholic as well.
Congratulations!! And your blog is truly amazing! Love, Fran
For the Honest Scrap, I am right with you on numbers 1-4! Except my hairy mole is on my jaw. And it gets plucked. lol Also love Desperate Housewives.
And thanks so much for the award! :)
Thank you. I'll pass it along soon.
Thanks for visiting my blog via ICLW! I will take this opportunity to admit that I, too, have a sneaky little hair on my chin. No mole, though, so I don't know if that's good luck or not. Either way, I pluck as well!
GL to you!

Thanks Clare! Sorry I haven't responded on my blog...I've been a lazy blogger lately but I really appreciate it!
I speak Aramaic and Arabic! I can tell you it is not the easiest language to learn but I was lucky to have parents who spoke it.
