Blog-iversary!

1

Can you believe this blog is ONE year old today?! I sure can't! I've learned that creating a blog is like a part time job, and sustaining one is a full time job. There were some very slow weeks in the beginning, like building my readership, and not knowing what to write. Once people started reading, commenting, and sharing my posts, I got excited and didn't want to quit! Let's take a look back at some of my favorite posts!

This Celtic Thunder post on their new DVD Mythology was the one that started it all! This was my very first post!

This post on Simple Sugars is still one of my most popular posts!

Let's Talk About: Court Storming was probably one of my most passionate posts. I was so fired up, I wrote that post in 15 minutes. My brain was on turbo for that post.

These two posts about Amish flower auctions, and the yearly benefit auction was fun because I got to show you a different way of life that some people don't see every day, or even in their lifetime.

I also got to share with you the day I met some awesome YouTube stars!

Finally, my all time favorite post of this past year was when I met the Farm Kings!

From the bottom of my heart, THANK YOU! Thank you for reading, commenting, subscribing, and sharing this blog! I can't thank you enough! Let's make this next year unforgettable!

I look forward to many more years together!

Once browned place off to the side. Combine your onions, garlic, diced tomatoes, and crushed tomatoes. *Sweat your onions down first, then add the garlic. Then your tomatoes.* Open your tomato sauces and spaghetti sauces (w...

High Five for Friday

Friday is here again! It is always a wonderful way to bring in the weekend. Here is what I loved this week. 1. I made another visit to Freedom Farms. I bought some apples, and bread. 2. I absolutely loved my Birchbox and Ipsy bags this month! The Ipsy review is coming tomorrow! 3. I am subbing today and I got to wear my jeans to school. I love days like that. 4. I just want it to be Christmas, because I have some amazing posts for you already planned out! 5. I discovered that McDonald's iced coffee with caramel is AMAZING! Thanks, Lauren for the link up!

High Five for Friday

I've done it again. #badblogger I can't wait until school is out and I have free time to write, photograph, and post my blogs! As usual, I am linking up with Lauren ! Here are my thoughts about the week! 1. It's Friday, and for that I am very grateful! 2. I am getting my hair cut tomorrow! I'm keeping my length, but I might add a few extra layers to give me more volume! I can't wait! My hair has been especially knotty when I get out of the shower. 3. I ordered new contacts and glasses from Wal-Mart Vision Center. I've had really good luck with them! 4. Did any of you catch the premier of The Night Shift on Tuesday? I think this will be a good replacement for me until Chicago Fire comes back on! 5. I am very much looking forward to sleeping in! What did you love about the week? Leave me a comment and let me know! I'd love to hear from you!
