I’ve been dragging my feet in regard to writing a post about the BAM (Bloggers at Midlife) conference in Las Vegas, mostly because I don’t have many good pictures that tell the tale. The reason for this unfortunate lack of photographic evidence is because I was busy running around like a chicken with its head cut …
Because I couldn’t possibly fit all the wonderful things that went on at the Food Blog Forum in Asheville, NC into one post, I decided to break my account up into a few smaller, more manageable bites. This is the second post in my series on the 2014 Food Blog Forum in Asheville, and here’s …
The Boonies: before the trees budded. What the heck was I thinking when I named this blog “Wildlife in the Woods”? (I actually know the answer to this question: I was thinking about the wildlife that lives in my woods, and the fact that life can get a little wild from time to time, and …
So here’s what I’ve noticed: First off, there are some amazing, AMAZING writers out there in the blogosphere. Secondly, many of my favorites don’t necessarily speak my cultural language. They don’t all have my world view. Yet, they are as tasty as a recipe that I try from what, to me, is a completely foreign …
“ I’m really honored and Totally Not Worthy to have gotten an honorable mention as “A Good Laugh” over at Hilary’s gorgeous blog, The Smitten Image. This is my third nod from Hillary, and I’m starting to suspect that this might be her way of being nice to the pitiful girl in the class. You …
I finally figured out how to make my own button! I’m so excited! I didn’t even used to even know what a blog button was, but now, I can make my own. I went to this wonderful lady’s blog, carefully followed her instructions, and now I know how. So, if you’d like to make your …
Be careful what you wish for. Isn’t that what you’ve always heard? Me, too. Why won’t I listen??? Remember how I said I was longing to be interviewed? Jack knows better than to wish for something like that. Some donkeys are smarter than others. Well, my wish has done gone and come true. I’ve been …
https://thesmittenimage.blogspot.com/Yes, I did!!! I think my heart just about leapt out of my throat, too!!!! So, I was on my way to Hilary’s wonderful blog, The Smitten Image, and I was going to comment about how Squirrel Buffet (the title of one of her pictures today) must be a cousin of Jimmy Buffett’s, and must …
Happy Birthday to Me! My dear husband, the Big Bison took me out to dinner last night where we were treated the way you OUGHT to be treated on your birthday: with sumptuous food and drink, with warmth, and concern for our every need. They even showed concern that the load that our pocketbook was …
The Dad on “A Christmas Story” Ain’t the Only Major Award Winner! No Ugly One Yet. Isn’t that a great name: No Ugly One Yet? As in, “All my kids are beautiful: haven’t had an ugly one yet”? Well, my friend Leslie, from the Sonlight Forums, who goes by the user name of No Ugly …
The Best Christmas Music Ever Free? Free??? Did you say a contest, AND a giveaway??? Yup. It’s the holidays, after all, and with or without the mistletoe, I’m in a holiday mood. If you remember, a few weeks ago I did a post about the Best Christmas Music Ever. (Yeah, OK, it’s my husband’s music, …
Isn’t that a cool picture? I told my dear husband, the Big Bison, the kind of picture I wanted for this post, and pointed out the microphone I wanted a picture of, and what background from his studio I thought would look cool, but that’s as much credit as I can take. My concept, his …
