5 Blogs I Like

I am not super into blogging or reading blogs; however, I do have a few blogs that peak my interest. I actually only read three blogs consistently, but I decided to seek out two other blogs that would be of interest to me over the 4th of July weekend. These are the 5 Blogs I enjoy reading (and will read) whenever I have time to spare.


This blog is...practical. It's very straight forward. You can look up excel shortcuts, formulas, and any other "tips and tricks" about excel you may need. I used it constantly at work when I first started working with excel as media planner in advertising. I still visit this site when in an "excel bind."


This blog I discovered randomly. I don't remember, but I think I may have seen an ad about crafts and clicked on the link. I like crafts and I "aspire" to be "crafty." : ) She creates and sells all sorts of crafts from clocks to refrigerator magnets. I like it and glimpse it from time to time to be inspire to do some project when the spirit bids me. I haven't ever completed a project...

3) http://pbkbrenda.blogspot.com/  (aka: "Better Full than Empty")

This is a blog I read when I'm...bored, perhaps. She is a mother who talks about the most random things. Sometimes I gleam little words of wisdom from her blog. 

These are the new blogs I discovered over the weekend. I tried to find blogs about crafts and "homey" things. 


This blog is all about parties. It’s not actually a craft site but it is filled with inspirational party ideas. It reminds me of this Martha Stewart magazine called Blue Print. I loved that magazine and then they canceled it because of lack of sales. This reminds me of it, somewhat. 


This blog is about baking. I tried baking once and I wasn't very...successful. The pound cake looked "right" but it didn't taste too right. I recently decided to revisit baking and this blog looks like a good way of breaking back into baking.  I also like the way the site looks. It's simple and clean. 

Here is the link to my blog for this course: http://digiblogsummer10.blogspot.com/


Enjoy,

  2. Stacy,

    Have you found any blogs belonging to overseas teachers? When I made my first trip abroad I found several blogs from teachers in Korea, and in hindsight, I feel like they gave me a pretty accurate description of life in KOrea.

    I don't see many from Saudi; perhaps the teachers are afraid of repercussions. I've thought about starting an anonymous blog for a place to put my first person narratives, once I get to KSA. I think whether or not I will do it will depend on how stimulating the country makes me feel.
