In my first post,
here's what I wrote:
I started this
blog for a number of reasons – to record moments I want to share
with those I love, chat with friends and family, meet new like-minded
people, get something down on "paper" when I'm struggling
with writer's block, journal my creative projects, and hopefully just
have fun. I hope you have fun reading my blog, too, and I'd love to
hear from you!
I still want to do
all of that – but I'd like to give the blog a new focus. Normally,
I just post a few pictures and some scattered updates on Dean, the
chickens, the garden, etc. Not terribly interesting (except for Dean,
of course! Dean is always interesting!!). I need to be a little more
serious about writing on a regular basis, and for that I need
a topic.
Well, I think I've
found one. After a lot of thinking and planning, I've decided to try
focusing primarily on my culinary and homemaking/mommy projects.
Those are two of my main interests right now. I enjoy cooking,
baking, drooling over home décor projects (thanks, Pinterest),
interacting with my precious two year old, and creating a home for my
family. I'd love to improve my skills and know-how by researching and
writing about these topics for the blog. Of course, I will also
include pictures and family updates—how could I not post a
few pictures of that chubby face and big blue eyes every once in a
while?
(Too cute to shoot,
that kid.)
So, my basic idea is
to post 2-3 times a week according to a set category. E.g., menu
plans one day, a recipe the next, a home décor or kiddie project the
next. Feel free to shoot me ideas or suggestions! I have a long list
of ideas to keep me going for a good while, but I'd love to get a
feel for what you are
interested in, too.
Well,
it's getting late! I'm cutting this a little short, I know, but
tomorrow is a big day and there is still much to do...we are
celebrating our third anniversary tomorrow by taking a short vacation
to Jim Thorpe, PA. We've planned to visit a mansion...take a train
ride...explore a so-called haunted jail. It is going to be so fun!
I'll definitely post some pictures when we get back. :)
And
so, goodnight. Sleep tight. Don't let the frostbite bite. ;)
