Musica & Arte has been nominated by Tempus Fugit for an Excessively Diverting Blog Award .

Recipients will uphold the highest standards in the art of the sparkling banter, witty repartee, and gentle reprove."

I'm most flattered, thank you, Doctor! Now, I have to nominate seven other blogs, but unfortunately most of them I would nominate has been nominated already, so here follows:

A Thousand Clapping Hands - beautiful postings, and even more beautiful pictures! It's a joy to visit her blog.


Tea at Trianon - Always informative and very interesting posts about Marie-Antoinette, traditions and culture!


Enchanted by Josephine - Wonderful blog about history, historical fiction and Josephine & Napoleon, of course!


Recipients, please claim your award by copying the HTML code of the Excessively Diverting Blog Award badge, posting it on your blog, listing the name of the person who nominated you, and linking to their blog. Then nominate seven other blogs that you feel meet or exceed the standards set forth.
