Thank you, neighbors across the Internet, for voting for me to win a 2007 Mouse & Trowel award for “Garden Blogger You’d Most Like to Have as a Neighbor”.
I’m thrilled to win and humbled to be “Internet neighbors” with so many other wonderful garden bloggers, especially Colleen who thought up the awards and made it all happen. She did a great job coming up with categories, putting together a great website for nominating and voting, and making us all aware of some new garden blogs we hadn’t found yet.
Thank you all, and have a happy day in your garden today!
Hi Carol, Congratulations, you deserve it. Your knowledge, drive and most of all humor would make you a perfect neighbor. Yes, the lilacs are beautiful this year – mine always have fragrance mingled with lily-of-the-valley – a heady mixture. We don’t have any fancy ones like yours, just some 60 year old “shrubs” (more like small trees) that were placed here long ago. I think people have always enjoyed them! Have a wonderful Mother’s Day.
Congratulations, Carol. I’d be happy to have you as a neighbor, but Internet neighbor is almost as good.
Congratulations, Carol! I know I’d love to have you as a neighbor 🙂
Carol, congratulations on your blog award. I just want to say thank you for the advise and encouragement you have given me on Indiana gardening. Again, thank you, neighbor.
Carol, a huge congratulations to you! You are so deserving, and such a fabulous part of the “neighborhood.” I toast you, my garden blogger friend!
Congratulations Carol and wishing you a ~Happy Mothers Day!~ hugs NG
Congrats on the Award you deserve it. Hope you have a great Mothers Day!
I definitely think of you as my neighbor. We certainly chat back and forth more often than anyone that lives physically nearby.
Congratulations!

CONGRATULATIONS Carol, I too think you are so deserving of the award, your blog is like a letter from home every day. Even thought I am not a big gardner I am always eager to see what you are writing about and always love the pictures. Also enjoy your sense of humor–all is all–a great blog.
You’re a wonderful virtual neighbor already, Carol ~ but I’m hoping for more. Frank & Helene never did more than write letters, but my hope is that some year, some way, we will meet in person.
Also, I have one word for you as you contemplate that ‘garden feature’: Harvey.

Congratulations! And happy May!
A very big Congratulations to you, Carol. You’re such a supportive and enthusiastic lady. I’m glad you’re one of my Cyber Garden Blogger Neighbors.

Congratulations on a much-deserved award, Carol! 🙂 I, too, am thrilled to be your cyberneighber in the garden world.
Congratulations Carol. I for one would love to have you as my neighbor.
There’s a cute house for sale up the street.
Congratulations!
I need a gate.
Congratulations! I was rooting for you for “Most Innovative” too. Thought you deserved it for the way you always manage to come up with ideas that involve other bloggers. But never mind. If the people next door decide to sell their house, just let us know!
Hi there, favorite neighbour of so many. Well done Carol, you deserved this Mousie and it came in your favorite month too.
Congratulations neighbor ! You’ve certainly been an inspiration to all of us .
Carol:
Love the blog, love the photos, congrats! Well deserved!
Congratulations! Any houses for sale near you? [grin]
Congrats ‘neighbor’. You are certainly one of the hardest working, and nicest blogers out there. Per you suggestion I have enabled Google alerts and am quite happy you told me about it. In your honor ‘neighbor’ we will cut the crabgrass before it flowers and blows into your yard.
Congratulations, Carol. Well-done and well-deserved. You are a great neighbor to all of us garden bloggers.
congratulations Carol! I always like stopping by and peeking over your fence to see what is going on in your garden!
Congratulations, Carol! I’m happy to have you as a “virtual” gardening neighbor. Your blog is always a pleasure to read.
Carol, this is well deserved recognition for your wonderful blog. Congratulations.
Congratulations, Carol! You truly are a great virtual neighbor! See how everyone gathers at “your place”…lol!
