My thoughts of the "hat tip"

For me a "hat tip" means giving credit to where it's due. Such as when you borrow an idea or an image from someone else, you would want to make sure that person received credit  and you didn't claim the idea or image as your own. It something or someone you want to give credit to for influencing or encouraging you. I could give a "hat tip" to my daughter's unfinished baby blanket as inspiration for creating this blog.
