My mother was a friendly person and she always said that you can't have too many friends - there's always room for more. She loved to travel and had friends all across the United States. She would be proud that I now have friends all around the world. I get a daily glimpse into the lives of people I would have never met if I had not started blogging my way into their lives.
I write my blogs and correspond with readers all over the world. I read their blogs and get an insight into their lives and cultures. I recently enjoyed seeing wedding photos of a blogging friend's daughter and felt like I was sitting in her garden in England. I didn't know Southhamsdarling existed six months ago - now I count her among my friends. An English Girl Rambles is a fantastic photographer and always delights her readers with her photos of flowers, birds, butterflies and bears with a pesky squirrel thrown in for good measure. 4 the love of wood gives me hope that someday I too will find the time to bring new life to old wood. Orchid's Daily Voice, is my Japanese blogger friend who is sharing her beautiful country's culture with the world. Maggi @ Just add Glitter and Stir is an amazingly talented young mother who takes life and runs with it adding laughter and sparkle to everyone about her. Between Naps on the porch gives us a glimpse into the life of antiquities, old homes and tablescapes. Kelsie @ Our Country Home recently let us peek into her china cabinet. All Things Farmer, who has about a million followers, has a new book out, can make your mouth water with his tempting Southern cooking and should be in Southern Living with his gardening and decorating if he isn't already. And my friend Jane @ A New Start / Scribblings of a Messy Haired Woman has led an exciting life and has some of the most fabulous tales to tell in her unique style of writing.
There are so many blogs that I follow and love, but I would be writing until midnight and not get anything else done if I tried to name them all. Take the time to click on a few of those I've highlighted in red above. You'll chuckle at their humor, marvel at their talent, and may just come away with a lot more knowledge than you had going in. Great summer reading - enjoy! My mother would have loved it.
