Monday: Beef and Broccoli Stir Fry with steamed [...]
I must admit that when I first heard about SMART Habit Saturday, the idea seemed admirable, but I wasn’t quite sure it was something I personally wanted to be a part of. After all, I felt like I was barely keeping my head above water with everything else that was already going on in my [...]
Julie Q. of Mental Tesserae very kindly informed me that besides the First Annual Hidden Treasure Blog Awards that are going on as we read, there is also another blog awards currently hitting bloggityville. It is the annual “Share the Love Blog Awards” hosted by Heather of One Woman’s World. Heather created this “in the spirit of glorifying [...]
