Then I had a hard time showcasing an award with the non-word "Awesomest" on it. If you know me at ALL, you know non-words make me a little bit cuckoo. Then my friend Kim pointed out that Urban Dictionary lists Awesomest, so it is in a dictionary *cough cough* (urban dictionary is in no way, shape OR form a dictionary and is full of words that do not exist in phrases that make little to no sense WHATSOEVER) and while I generally refuse to acknowledge anything Urban Dictionary says..I decided to make an exception, in this case.
Look, they can't even get it right in the definition:
Awesomest - To be more awesome then awesome itself
(Pet Peeve - it's THAN, not then. You can't be more anything THEN something unless you're describing a sequence of events. This bugs me ALMOST as much as when people say "I would of gone if I could of." *shudder* HAVE, people..HAVE. I would HAVE gone if I could HAVE. The 'of' sound you hear at the end? Yeah...that's part of a CONTRACTION. Could'VE, Would'VE, Should'VE as in - Should've paid more attention in basic English class. OK..I'm done being snotty now. No, really..I am. For now.)
Gosh, all of that just to say - Hey, thanks for the award...I really am more awesomer than most. *flops around on the ground from using that sequence of words*. Thanks for nominating me and thanks for voting for me. I'll try to be way more funnier *oh MYLANTA, the agony!* so I can be nominated in the humor section next time around.
(Whoa, I just read through all of that, again, and while I was trying to be funny and, sure, a little snotty - I really AM grateful for the award and honored to have been thought of - I was just trying to be funny. My mom and dad always told me I wasn't as funny as I thought I was - must be true. LOL)

Congrats on your award.
My pet peeve...not that you asked, but I'm telling you anyway, is when someone asks "Where you at?" or He'll meet you where you are at!
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! It's, "Where are you?" or "He'll meet you where you are." ok, I'm done being snotty too.
congrats! I voted. :) Would've voted ya in the "funniest" category too, only you weren't there. ;)
congrats...regardless of your disdain for non-wordy words, you must face it. you are the awesomest!!!
Congrats on the award! Someone should create a "craziest vlogger award" for you. Ha. You are so funny.
Blessings!

Hey, congratulations!!
I must say I don't exactly consider you a food blog either. I am also a grammar Nazi so I can sympathize with your disdain for improperly used words and phrases. I was grading a paper in my micro class and the first sentence just killed me. It said, "The quest to figure out my unknown bacteria was the most gruesome task I have ever had to accomplish." FIRST of all bacteria is plural and bacterium is singular. They only got one. Secondly, unless there was BLOOD the task was probably more grueling than gruesome. Ok, I'm done now!
Ah grammer...I despise when my students say, "Can I ax you something?". NO, you may not ax me, however, if you'd like to ASK a question, go ahead. Anyhow, went for a fitting...sad, sad, sad...I think I'm gonna need an A- by the time I'm done nursing. AND, there's no pretty in that size because apparently, if they're that small, you might as well go with a little mermaid trainer! Oh the injustice of it all! Now I understand a little more about why people get a boob job!
Congrats on your award...I voted for ya!
Congratulations on your award:-) Spelled incorrectly or not, it's still really cool to be recognized.
The grammar policewoman is on the job. What kinda money are we talkin about here with that reward?
Well, you are funny looking. Heh.
