I’m sharing recipes and tips on being frugal while polishing up my photography and creative writing skills. There’s an occasional spiritual discussion, a book review here and there, and probably more pictures of my dog than are strictly necessary. It’s part chat with a girlfriend over a glass of sweet tea, part conversation overheard in the grocery store checkout line, and part Thanksgiving dinner with the crazy branch of the family.

25 Tips to Make Your Blog More Accessible by The Lady Bloggers Society. I was VERY proud of myself for catching up and finishing the SITS/ProBlogger "31 Day to Build a Better Blog" Challenge, but if you're looking for something a little more abbreviated check this out. It's a good checklist for new and experienced bloggers alike.

The People In My Life I Appreciate by Catherine at The Vogue Vocalist. If you think all teenagers are thoughtless and self-absorbed read this with tissue in hand. I was crying before I finished the first paragraph. She's a wonderful young woman who's heading off to college today. Good Luck Catherine!

College Move-In Day for Aaron Just in case there's anyone in the world I haven't bored to tears with my ongoing drama about moving my firstborn into his Freshman dorm last weekend. And here's a "proud mom" update: He made tenors on the drum line! (Those are the several drums together in a semicircle around the drummer - very heavy and extremely cool)
