I don’t do many link-ups but I thought this one from Kelly’s Korner would be fun to try. She is doing a “find a new friend” link up where you post your name and the city you live in. This way, you can meet new blog friends in your area! I am especially excited about [...]
Oh my Lord, you guys. I feel so foolish for publishing that blog post yesterday. I shouldn’t even call it a blog post. I should call it a blog whine! I knew when I was writing it that I should save it as a draft and forget about it. But something compelled me to actually [...]
I have been blogging for five years today! The past year has been pretty amazing for me as a blogger and I’d like to share a few of the highlights! I won a BlogHer Voice of the Year award. (seriously? still in shock that this happened!) I went to my very first blog conference and [...]
Yesterday was a new beginning for me. I decided I am finishing my novel. It’s National Novel Writing Month. #NaNoWriMo. And yours truly is participating. For five years I have written a blog. I have spent countless hours on the internet tapping out post after post. Some of which are more than 1,000 words long. [...]
I’m so excited to have been chosen as a Sluiter Nation Recruit over on Katie’s blog! I have been reading her blog for some time now and she is a wonderful writer. I also got to meet her at BlogHer and it was pretty darn cool to actually see her smiling face! If you’re coming [...]

I’m probably the last of the 4,000 bloggers who were at BlogHer to do a recap but nonetheless, this must be recorded. So grab a snack and get cozy, folks. This is gonna be a long one. Here’s the good stuff that happened at BlogHer. The plane ride to San Diego (and I don’t even [...]
You guys remember how I featured some friends and their fave pins while I went on a bloggy break? Well, I think it was a nice idea so I’ve decided to keep it going. It won’t be a weekly feature or anything. I’ll just post them here and there. But I do hope you enjoy [...]
In three weeks I am going to the BlogHer conference in San Diego. I will be rooming with Jill of Baby Rabies, Suzanne of Bebeh Blog and Torie of 25 Design! Yes, I feel super lucky to have such amazing roomies! But see that above? That means it is really happening. I have been in [...]
A short and sweet that’s pinteresting for your Sunday. Chelsey of The Paper Mama has given us a peek into her favorite pins. The Paper Mama is a fairly new read for me but I am certainly glad I found her! She is going to the BlogHer conference and I hope to get to know [...]
