i just updated my favorite blogs sidebar and i really hope you'll take a minute to check them out. i'm not sure about you, but i really love discovering fantastic new blogs that haven't hit the big time yet. yes we all know that the rockstar diaries and a cup of jo are fantastic blogs, but i've come to realize that my absolute favorite blogs are those that aren't quite as well known.
my favorite blogs are those that still have a really personal feel, where there's some back and forth, where you can actually get to know someone else through their blog, and where you feel there's a real live person behind it. to me, those big, famous blogs always seem to lose these aspects.
remember diamond in the rough? it was such an awesome idea and i found some of my favorite blogs through that site. but they seem to have stopped running that blog, so i thought i would just take a minute to do my part in helping share some awesome blogs with you guys. and if you have a blog or know of one i might like, let me know!
oh you have such great blogs in your reader!! and so many that i can't wait to check out!
ReplyDeleteI'm so flattered that you have me on your list. I recommend checking out Shimmer Like Gold -- Krissy doesn't post every day, but her last post was absolute perfection. I think you'll like her style.

ReplyDeleteLove you blog list. I can't believe you lived next to Miette! I would go there everyday. I totally agree with what you said about blog lists. The ones with a personal relationship are the best. Hoping to get to know you a little better also.

P.S. You knew J. Roddy Walston and the Business in their early days!?!? How incredibly cool! I bet those shows were fun.
ReplyDeleteI love Kind Over Matter! Thanks for sharing some fun ones!
ReplyDeleteI love being on your list, Kim. You are tops on mine, a daily read that always makes me smile :)
ReplyDeleteoh riversiren! i adore your adventurous blog, i just didn't know if you wanted public attention drawn to it or if you wanted to keep it more of a private blog. i wanted to wait until i got your permission to add it.
ReplyDeleteps - hope to see you soon!!!
Thanks for including me in your list, dear! I'm off to check out some of the other blogs!
ReplyDeleteI was being silly, but I actually have had a hard time deciding how public to make it. Right now I don't have it "allowed" to be on google search or anything. I still can't make up my mind, but I AM sure that I love your blog, Kim!
ReplyDeleteGood luck on the rest of the wedding planning. I got super emotional and a little crazy right before mine even though I tried to make everything super simple. But I think if one keeps it in one's mind that that is normal, everything is okay.
