It's Blogday 07 tomorrow!
You know, I do feel kinda bad that I don't get to post as much as I would like at the moment. Do you ever experience this sort of bloggers guilt too? I honestly feel as though I'm kind of letting my lovely readers down if I don't 'pop-in more regular'. If I've not posted in a while I sometimes receive sweet emails from you asking if all is well (which is unbelievingly kind - and I feel really touched!)
I do have a good reason for my scant posting behaviour - I have been commissioned to write another blog by a prolific blogger based in the USA, and I've needed to do a bit of prep for it. All will be revealed soon (needless to say I'm VERY excited about it!) I will still write this here blog (so no worries there!) This blog is my baby. I love it very much, it's where blogging all started for me, and I really do appreciate ALL of your comments, your participation in various draws and contests, sending me your beautiful pics, and you using my tutorials. If it wasn't for all of your feedback and participation I wouldn't be nearly so motivated to write this blog in the first place!
FYI I have just started stuffing my chops with nibbling a Maple Krispy Kreme donut...mmmmmm...don't be jealous of me; instead pity me as I slip yet further away from the unattainable goal of owning a flat tummy...ah well...munch, munch, munch. What's your favorite flavor?
Mmmyumm...anyway, what was I saying? Oh yes, I was talking about the joys of blogging. I'm a fully signed up addict/member of the blogosphere. Thru yours and my blogs I've learnt so much, laughed alot, and connected with squillions of folks all around the world. Did you know that it's BlogDay 07 tomorrow? All you have to do to join in the fun and share in some of that warm fuzzy blogging feeling is:
- Find 5 new Blogs that you find interesting
- Notify the 5 bloggers that you are recommending them as part of BlogDay 2007
- Write a short description of the Blogs and place a link to the recommended Blogs
- Post the BlogDay Post (on August 31st) and
- Add the BlogDay tag using this link: http://technorati.com/tag/BlogDay2007 and a link to the BlogDay web site at http://www.blogday.org
I'm off to do a wee bit of blog surfing to find 5 new blogs whilst I have few bites of my donut left (I always prefer to snack whilst surfing). Have fun discovering new blogs!
PS I'll announce the 2 winners of the latest Craft Mag draw later today or tomorrow. XX


































blogger's guilt...erm... yup. I have it too. I have *embarrassed* three blogs *embarrassed* and I havent blogged on any of them for well over a month. It's probably longer but I'm too afraid to look.
*wishes she had donuts too* :(

A doughnut... sounds yummy! I loooooooove doughnuts and my chubby cheeks confirm that. When I was teaching, there were doughnuts at school almost every day... it was a danger zone.
Congrats on your new award!

PS Come see my first Amy Butler purse that I just posted.

Would you believe I am a Krispy Kreme virgin? No, really, I am!
Didn't know tomorrow was blog day.

I have only just been introduced to the world of blogging through your website, so I do not have my own blog, but I feel incredibly guilty for spending so much time reading different blogs and looking on flickr instead of doing my housework! I think you are doing a great job with your blog especially with your other commitments, keep up the great work! P.S. I didn't know you could get krispy kremes in England, I thought they were only in America

I'm guessing you'll be writing for the Manolo?

Oh Krispy Kremes say it is not so! Raspberry filled, of course. The combination of doughy donut, jam, and sugary glaze how could you go wrong. Come to think of it, I haven't had one in at least three years. Did just finish a whole Milka bar while reading blogs though. Maybe we should switch to carrot sticks?

:) Yes I get blog guilt, even if I think that there are only about three people reading it, I want to please those three people.
But I've had an excuse, because I'd much rather be blogging and crafting than doing my other work, so I've had to leave well alone (things looking okay on that by the way, and thanks for the plant! ;)
Since it's Blog day though...

Yes, I have blogged about your blog for Blog Day. Thank you for writing and all your wonderful purses.

It's been over a year since I had a Krispy Kreme donut and I thought that I was over that craving. Turns out that all it takes is one picture of a box of them and I'm back to thinking of them constantly...
It's a good job I never tried drugs if I'm this bad over doughnuts. and chocolate. and Walker's prawn coctail crisps. and... ok, you get the idea.
