Blog Roll


I had a long albeit fun packed weekend. The family and I had an amazing Indian Summer morning on Saturday walking along the Mississippi River and downtown Minneapolis. We had a lot of fun and the little lady was plum tuckered out by the time we made it back home. Sunday I co-hosted a baby shower for a dear friend of mine so the house was full of lady chatter and laughter. It was a great morning.

As I was sitting down last night to catch up on the final episode of Project Runway and read my blogs I thought that maybe the rest of you would like to know what I'm reading. So here is my first blog roll, blogs you may or may not of heard of, by people I've never met and in real life (IRL) friends but either way should check out!
  • Yes and Yes: My IRL friend Sarah Von has a fabulous blog about saying yes in your life and all things fun and inspiring. She is just as fun, interesting and amazing IRL it's no wonder her blog is so popular!
  • They Are So Cute When They Are Sleeping: Written by another IRL friend you may have caught my guest post over there a week or so ago. A true, no holds barred parenting blog Kate tells you like it is, with a dose of her insight and humor to go along with it.
  • The Pioneer Woman: A great mix of cooking, style, life and homeschooling this blog has it all. Ree is a funny, funny lady and takes stunning photographs of her life on the ranch. I plan on making these delicious bad boys tonight.
  • Already Pretty: Sal writes about style, body issues and all things related to image and the body. She is funny, insightful, inspiring and definitely has a knack for putting things together.
  • Smitten Kitchen: My hands down favorite blog to read is by NYC blogger Deb. She not only takes beautiful photographs of the food she creates but has a real talent for picking out recipes that I want to make. I've made many from her site and every.single.one has turned out fabulous. Don't know what to make for dinner tonight? Check her out!

A Giveaway, A Giveaway!

Well fellow inter-friends, I was going to post today about my experience with the Wii Fit. However, upon looking at my post number I realized that today was post #95. Which means that I get to announce the nifty little giveaway I have planned for post #100. Giveaway you say? Oh yes, just keep reading folks. I'm not going to get too introspective and sentimental today. After all, I have to leave myself something to write for the hundredth post. I'm excited that I made it this far. When I started out I really, really hoped that I'd actually write in this space and feel motivated enough to keep writing here. And I do! I like having something to do everyday that is for me, and really (sorry to disappoint you) only me. We can discuss this at more length next week, when I've actually made it to one hundred. So, the details. I want to know more about who you are. Yes, you! The people that come and read my stuff everyday. Or every week. Heck, if you're just pa...

A Confession

First let me come clean.  I'm pregnant. Now, let the next thirty-one weeks commence where I talk of nothing else except my growing belly, appetite and need for Cheetos.  Not really, but I will say this; I'm tired.  So tired that normal everyday tasks that should only take me a few minutes suddenly sit around, unfinished, for days at a time.  Examples?  The dishwasher, the dirty dishes, groceries (the non-perishable ones, duh), folding the laundry, making the bed.  I mean, there are much better things to do, like, stuff handfuls of popcorn in my mouth while watching all the episodes of Angel, in order.  Don't judge me, I am returning to school in a few weeks; maybe this is just me trying desperately to channel myself as a Freshman in college?  Who the heck knows.  What I do know that my "golden time," or nap time as it is commonly called, was once used to clean, cook, tidy up, rest and blog.  Well, you know how much blogging I've done o...

Now You See Me, Later You Won't

Although I've been away from this space for quite some time I was surprised to see that people were still reading it.  Go me!  So, although I am not going to be blogging in this space for much longer, I'm going to leave it up for the time being.  If nothing else as a way for people to find me in my next space. Next space you say?  Yes, I'm moving.  When I started this blog things were very different from what they are now.  I thought we were moving abroad much sooner, I was not going to school and there were no definite plans for a second baby.  That being said, the last few months I felt like I was not able to really be comfortable in this space.  So I'm opting to move someplace else, under a different blog name and start again.  I really hope that you will move over with me; I've so enjoyed having you along for the ride! So, sometime soon I will post about my new digs.  As soon as I find the time to put something up over...
