Rockin' Girl Blogger

Sari from The Geek Inside has tagged me with the Rockin' Girl Blogger Award. Now I get to pass it along to five Rockin' Girl Bloggers. Girls Rule.

In no particular order:

1. Capello at No Appropriate Behavior and at Laura Capello's Gluten-free Recipes is one of my oldest and dearest blogging buddies. She has two sweet little boys one a bit older and one a bit younger than Lily, and she is having to cook gluten-free just like me. There are recipes and crafts, Laura is very crafty. There are swaps and thriftstore finds. Laura is an awesome writer, edgy and funny. And every blog title come from the lyrics of a song, at the end of the month she links to each and every one of those songs and leaves those links on her sidebar.



2. Patrice from makingpeace lives in my beloved California. Patrice takes the loveliest pictures and makes the loveliest graphics. Her home and crafts are wonderful as well. She is a stay at home mom and is home schooling and trying to exist on the planet with the least amount of impact on the earth. You have to stop by to see what I mean, but the makingpeace blog is a lovely little stop I make everyday that always gives me peace.



3. Angel from Skillett's World is a real life friend and a fantastic writer. Angle tells it like it is, no holds barred. I love that about her. Angel is like me, having put off college and a career to be a young mom. Only now Angel has her degree and is working her way up the coporate ladder, which turns out to be a bit of a challenge later in life.



4. Kim from Wheaties2BK is an Air Force wife with a young son about Lily's age. Kim also has chosen to be a stay at home mom for the time being. She is a school teacher and struggles with the loss of money and all that is encompassed by giving up work to be home with the little ones. Kim puts all that energy into photo challenges, fixing up their house, cake decoratation and some great trips. I like to be connected with other real women who make choices regarding how we raise our kids and whether or not we work or stay at home. Great writing and photos.



5. Lorelei from Musings is a new blogging buddy. I have enjoyed getting to know Lorelei who is also a college student late in life, a book club member and avid reader. Lorelei's life is full of adventure and she is great about blogging everyday. I am enjoying getting to know her and look forward to reading her blog every morning.



6. Gen from Not So New Mom on the Blog is from South Africa. I can't believe how similar her life is to mine. Sometimes I forget that she is not in America, except that it is winter there now. She is a delightful woman full of stories about her boys, and life as a mom in South Africa.

Sorry, I know that was six I can't count.
