Fellow blogger, Clinically Clueless, awarded Giggle On the prestigious prize called ‘Arte Y Pico’ (prestigious is my definition, honestly, I never heard of it before).
Arte Y Pico is not pico de gallo, the zesty and tangy tortilla chip dip, but hey, who cares what it is not. An award is an award. Give it here!
According to Clinically Clueless, this award is typically given to 5 blogs at a time and is based in creativity, design, interest of content, and content of the blogging community, regardless of language. Moochos grassy ass with extra jalapenos CC! I am honored you recognized Giggle On and little old moi.
This news of this award comes at the perfect time since I’ve been reeling in a sea of great disappointment since I did not win the coveted Stache on a Stick prize awarded by Miss Anna Lefler at her blog, Life Keeps Getting Weirder. I didn’t even get honorable mention! ARGH!
Now back to my award
*batting my Italian eye lashes*
Thank you…It was a pleasure just to be nominated. I want to thank my 2nd grade teacher, Miss Innis, my dog, Rosie, for all the lickey-lickey love and support she provides me (although Rose, mommy didn’t appreciate the peeing accident on the custom rug today) and finally…
*drum roll please*…
the person who invented Post-It notes.
Link Love
So, I decided to play along with this link love loop and award the Pico Nacho Jalapeno prize to a few of my favorite bloggers.
I also plan to create my own award. *yeah yeah* I don’t know what I’ll call it, what the award will look like or when I’ll roll out the contest but I promise to give Miss Anna Lefler (one of those blonde hair people, suspect to all brunettes like me) a fair shake at winning ANY Giggle On prize I offer. *you know you want it Anna*
-oops, that didn’t sound quite right-
Giggle On awards Arte Y Pico (minus the jalapenos) to….
Yeah, you read that right. My girl, New Age Bitch, or NAB, is totally real in a pseudonym kinda way. She’s funny. She is also spiritual and wise with a saucy and addicting after bite. Thankfully her blog is low in calories. Check out this Bitch. You will love her brilliant bitch-essence as much as I do.
Yoga for Cynics by Dr. Jay
Any man who integrates coffee with yoga and cynicism with more coffee on top of another heap of yoga is ok in my book. His blog about Loving Kindness is a fine example of what NOT to do when heading to a yoga class. All yogis and yoginis need a dose of Dr. Jay. Namaste and shit like that.
I Do Things by JD
JD already won the award but she seems to understand the whole logic and story behind this Pico award. That, in and of itself, deserves recognition. JD and I also see a common ground regarding jury duty and female body odor. Rock on with your bad self JD.
Please give a cyber round of applause to all the winners.
*clap clap, clap clap, clap clap*
Note: Since 3 is my favorite number, I am awarding 3 people this prize.
Go ahead and dime me out to the Arte Y Pico people for not giving out 5 awards. I don’t care. I’m a crazy rule breaker like that. I also swim after I eat, run with scissors and sniff glue. Sue me.
Remember folks, “Don’t Give Up!…Giggle On!”
And yo…Anna, hasta la vista baby!

Hi new friend
I was so happy to get your comment. I feel exactly the same way about feeling a bit left out in the blogger world. I cannot have children due to my cancer. I was only 28 when I got my diagnosis so I didn’t have a family yet. Sometimes its hard to see all the beautiful families and know I can’t have one of my own. Yes adoption is an option and one that I am open to but its still tough. Im just so glad the SITS girls sent you my way! Especially since this has been an especially difficult couple of days. I’ve decided to take the day off and am sitting home relaxing. It was great to get your comment, put a smile on my face. I think your blog is wonderful and I will be adding you to my blog roll!
Hope we get to know each other better.

also…did you see my last post about the laugh basket. It was for my professor who actually died and was given to her only a few days before her death. Im sad she never had the opportunity to enjoy it. Your blog title goes perfectly with the laugh basket

WOOOOO!!!!
I will admit I’m just a WEE bit disappointed that my award came without jalapenos, but despite that, I am honored beyond belief.
And congratulations to you, missy. Not too shabby.
Thanks again, too, for commenting on my jury duty post, so I could find you. Now you’ll never get rid of me.

I have been summoned by your linklove and bloggy taunts from across the murky blogosphere! Behold the bitchin’ bling which hath (sorry, did I spit on you?) been bestowed upon you by the Clueless One at other, yon blog pad! It is, indeed…bitchin’.
And you deserve it, oh, brunette Christa of the velvety European lashes! Congratulations!
I await word of the details of your soon-to-be-hatched contest, upon which time I will hasten to your fair blog to kick the competition’s sincere but unworthy ass(es).
Until then, I thank you for the shout-out and I bid you rock on with your bad self.
XO

@ Meaghan – I was thrilled to learn I put a smile on your face and even more excited that you shared the laugh basket idea! LOVE IT. Be good to yourself sista and talk to you soon.
@ JD at I Do Things – I have a special Arte Y Pico being fabricated especially for you with jalapenos attached to the breast area of the statue. It will probably be inappropriate for you to display this in front of anyone under the age of 16 , but, that’s your call.
@ Anna, the Leflermeister - the gauntlet has been thrown and accepted. Muah-ha-ha-ha. And yes, you DID spit on me. I will judge the pending contest with fairness and give your goldilocks a fair shake. You have my Giggle On brunette word on that. *eye lash flutter once again* Until we meet again…….

I considered sending in a lackey to collect my award when I heard there were NO EFFING JALAPENOS INVOLVED*. Lucky for you my lackey was busy waxing his back** and couldn’t make it.
So, uh….where is the damn thing?
[Hold on, I am mesmerized by your Gaiam ad in the sidebar. Did you know you were shilling for dryer balls? (heh. I said balls.)]
Okay, I’m back (”balls”… heh.). So do I get like a badge or something? I totally need a badge.
*You did hear that today is CAPS LOCK DAY, DIDN’T YOU?
**It’s an interesting process involving Twizzlers, spit, and sudden movements. Sorry, the video’s not up yet.

Holy Cow! Anna gets her own label on somebody else’s post? That ’stache on a stick schtick was genius. I’ve got to get the name of her campaign manager. Maybe I’ll just stalk her. Maybe I’ll pretend to be someone else and connive a lunch date with her. Stay tuned for a blog post about my future date with a famous blonde!

Thank ya so much, Christa, particularly as you linked to my all-time favorite post (though I’d say it’s more about you-know-you-really-NEED-to-go-to-yoga-class-if-you-can’t-get-there-without…). Still recovering from my serious Mexican lunch (you can get real Mexican food in Philly now…), as well as more coffee than usual, my stomach’s better off without the jalopenos…so just as well…..

@ Babs – your secret contribution to my site is appreciated. I am now in love with you. Keep your eyes peeled. I’ll be rolling out the surprise *** soon.
@ NAB aka Beevis and Butthead (love the “balls” reference) – the jalapeno-less Arte Y Pico prize is at the top of the blog babe, just right click on that jimmie john and presto, post that sucka on your site and brag away. “Official” rules require you to pass on to 5 people but I say que sera serra or as Dr. Jay at Yoga for Cynics says, “if the spirit moves you”.
@ NannyGoat – don’t get your nanny goat panties in bunch about Anna’s label on my blog. I like to share the love (with proper protection of course) and will hit you up in due time. Not that you need the traffic Miss Popularity Pants of 2008.
@ YogaforCynics - Namasmotherfuckingte! That says it all brother. Classic, just classic! You’re welcome and keep the caffeinated cobra posed cynicism comin’. Go Phils!!!
