Gasp!
Gasp!
I won! Not the whole thing of course - that went to the wonderful Thought Leader blog - but yup, Skinny laMinx was voted the Best Blog About Design in the whoooole of South Africa!
Thanks for your votes, and congrats to all the other winners. After the organisers had made a big deal about there being no prizes for this year's awards, I ended up leaving last night with a bottle of wine, a tree (see above), and a rather spiffy new monitor under my arm. No... no, my prize wasn't a lizard (with a tree as a prize, anything's possible), but a 20" flat screen monitor from Dell. Yippee!
PS: Thanks Dad and Mom for the early morning phone call. You're so sweet!

Hi Heather,
Thanks for leaving a comment in my post Why your comments and emails are not getting prompt responses. I have responded to your comment, but really, it is nothing very important.
Illustrator? mmmm
Wonder if I dare? What have I got to lose -

A well-deserved honor.

Keep up the good blogging!
Congratulations Heather! *popping the champagne and cheering*
!!YEAH! So excited for you. You deserve it. You're wonderful, your work is wonderful, and your blog is too.
CONGRATULATIONS
Wow, congrats! And I hope you aren't too disappointed that it wasn't a Nile Monitor. -X
Oh congratulations! how wonderful!
Well done! After all the big and scary decisions you have had to make this year I'm sure such an award makes you feel a little better about choosing skinny la minx over your 'job'. Congratulations - it is well deserved. :) Enjoy your weekend.
Hey Heather I am so pleased! I held thumbs. And I suppose Monkey would not have appreciated the other type of monitor so maybe its just as well...
Yay!! How exciting! I voted for you... so pleased you won!
A late but nonetheless hearty congrats. Well done!
Congratulations and well deserved.
congratulations!!!
great news...congratulations!!
Congrats Heather! - i always enjoy stealing a glance at your blog when im busy at work. I like it because i seem to like lots of the same things you do, but also because the layout is so simple - it really works well! You've inspired me to start a blog about our renovations... when we get our plans back from council one day...!
and so you should have this honour. Congrats!
Can't believe that I have been so distracted and only saw this now... congrats!
Thanks again, everyone. You're the schizzle (as Larry David might say).
