Where we've been lately~We've been on the road and traveling quite a bit this past month.  First I went to Mexico with my husband on a business trip.  We got a chance to visit and hand out books at the same Children's Home and Community Center that we got to visit in October when we went on a LoveFeast Vacay at Azul Sensatori.  Then, I had just a quick turn around before I hopped on a plane for BlogLove™ "Takes Flight" in Baltimore, Maryland.  Kristin and I had a great time meeting lots of bloggers from the Baltimore … [Read more...]

LoveFeast “Takes Flight” Bags & GiveAway

By on January 19, 2011 with 26 Comments

Over the past week I've gotten a lot of IRL (In Real Life) time with some of my blogging friends.  One of the things I like about blogging is the community it builds as well as the friendships it launches. Meeting for coffee or lunch is a welcome break from solo time behind the computer.  Sometimes you just have to reach out and do lunch IRL style.  And, I have been doing just that lately.
