He'll try pretty much anything, so this is great fun for both of us.<BR/><BR/>I started my food blog for pretty much the same reason as you. I have so many more I want to add, but I need to make the dish so I can get a picture to include in my post. We're eating lots of things I haven't made in years! :)Leshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08345657431432380804noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22415234.post-30742570820548931212008-02-20T08:40:00.000-08:002008-02-20T08:40:00.000-08:00Les,I just got onto your recipe blog.

I just started it in January and can't wait to get home to go though my "recipe drawer" of favorites to add to the blog. I did the blog mostly for me so I can organize all my recipes and have my family who are scattered all over the country to have access to the recipes. <BR/><BR/><BR/>Have a great day.<BR/><BR/>JackieJackiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01706209768142663342noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22415234.post-70820726921559336942008-02-19T10:51:00.000-08:002008-02-19T10:51:00.000-08:00Jackie - Yep, you're the lucky winner!

I found your blog by looking for info on a book. Your blog came up. I thought it was so good that i bookmarked it. Your site as a wealth of info on it. I have a list of your book recommendations.

Do you have a blog of your own?<BR/><BR/>Lynne - Thanks! I'm glad you've enjoyed my blog.<BR/><BR/>Joy - Aw, thanks! Yep, The Winter Rose is a chunkster!! I'm only a couple of hundred pages in and have set it aside to read an ARC that I want to review before it hits the shelves.<BR/><BR/>Tricia - Thanks for visiting my blog! I'm glad you've enjoyed my reviews.<BR/><BR/>Megan - Thanks! I'm glad you've found your way to my blog. I know I enjoy finding new blogs to peruse. Of course that always means I wind up with far too many books in my TBR piles. Oh, well. :)<BR/><BR/>Bellezza - Well, it means a lot to me to have so many wonderful blogger friends and the gift card is a lot easier for me than trying to be creative and crafty like you've done with your awesome challenge prizes!! :) Thanks for being such a great friend. To think if I never started blogging, I wouldn't have met you!! Love ya lots, my kindred spirit.<BR/><BR/>Nat - It's been so much fun. I can't begin to imagine life without blogging! Having said that, I wonder where we'll all be in ten years? A different platform of some sort? Who knows!<BR/><BR/>Lee - Thanks! I'm glad you've become a regular visitor here. Keep the recommendations coming. I'm sure there's a winner in there somewhere. ;)<BR/><BR/>Bybee - That's right. And you're one of the first blogs I started to read, too.<BR/><BR/>Eva - Thank you. About that quote. I feel bad that I didn't reference who wrote it, but I jotted it down for this particular post and somehow forgot to make a notation of the author. I can't tell you how much time I spent looking through various book that I thought it came from. Finally gave up and just wrote "author unknown." Anyhow, it just seemed so perfect to use on this post.<BR/><BR/>Kay - And I'm SO glad you started blogging! I visited your blog every single day. <BR/><BR/>And thank you for your enduring friendship. You've been a dear friend throughout the years.<BR/><BR/>Warm, what's that? Oh, ya. Gotta wait for spring (or summer) to feel warm again. ;)<BR/><BR/>Janet - Yep, it's been almost 6 years since I left TX (for the second time!). Amazing, isn't it?!<BR/><BR/>Marg - Thank you. It's been great fun. <BR/><BR/>3M - Aw, thanks. I'm glad you've enjoyed your visits here.<BR/><BR/>Teabird - And it's been a pleasure reading yours! :)<BR/><BR/>Linda - Thank you. I'm pretty sure I'll be doing this for many, many years to come. Thanks for being such a good friend.<BR/><BR/>Inside A Book - Thank you for such kind words. And, yes, I'm quite thrilled that our granddaughter is already learning the joy of reading.<BR/><BR/>Maggie - Thanks. At least two more years!!<BR/><BR/>Maudeen - Thanks for your wonderful friendship and loyal readership here. You've added to my TBR stacks, too, you know!<BR/><BR/>Robin - Thank you. I wasn't sure if I wanted to combine my book blog with the nature/travel/photo essay stuff, but it seems to have worked well. I'm glad you've enjoyed it.<BR/><BR/>Stephanie - Sorry. Maybe next time you'll be a winner! Thanks for your friendship. You're a sweetheart.<BR/><BR/>Iliana - Better late than never, right? Thanks for helping me add to my huge TBR list/stacks. I always get great ideas from your blog.<BR/><BR/>TeddyRose - Cheers!! Thanks for stopping by.<BR/><BR/>Bookfool - Gotta love Blogger, right? ;) It's been a grand two years and I'm so glad I got the chance to meet you through the blogosphere. Love ya, too!<BR/><BR/>Framed - And you're one of them. I look forward to reading your blog everyday. <BR/><BR/>Heather - Ah, I have such a special place for you in my heart, dear friend. We've both had a lot of sadness in our lives and it's been so helpful to have you to lean on during those tough times. Thank you. And thank you for brightening my day with all those fabulous pictures of those darling kiddos! <BR/><BR/>Booksplease - Thank you for stopping by. I'm glad you've enjoyed my blog.<BR/><BR/>Booklogged - An early congrats to you on your blogiversary! :) Your blog is one I check every day and <I>you</I> have helped add to my toppling stacks, too.
