Today, I am going to start a new Sunday feature, a Weekly Blog Roundup (organic, I promise) of some other bloggers I enjoyed in the past week. I will try to maintain this at least through the rest of January, and February.
Too often we pay attention to our own blogs and don't thank those bloggers who inspire us, give us ideas, entertain us, make us think, or introduce us to worlds different than our own.
Today, I want to link to several blog posts I enjoyed this past week. There were more, but I wanted to keep this somewhat short.
Holly Jahangiri introduced me to the concept of Slow Blogging. Guess I was even slower than she was in discovering it.
Roy Ackerman - ever wonder about your privacy and auto insurance? You'll be sorry you asked.
Alice's Grand Adventures - Lentil Soup. Doesn't her post make you want some?
Emma Crees, a Writer in a Wheelchair with some parody songs.
Having Coffee with Peppy: a blogger in Idaho - not your typical blogger, and I'm glad. Her coffee is always on.
and finally, Marian Allen visiting a monastery in Kentucky - her observation "probably not Han Solo" made my entire week.
I hope you visit one or more of these blogs, and find something that appeals to you. Happy blog visiting!
What a great idea - thank you for the links!
ReplyDeleteI enjoy your blog too, Laurel. Perhaps next week....
DeleteI'm so glad to have something like this to go through in the airport as I wait for my flight home!
ReplyDeleteHope you enjoyed some of them.
DeleteGreat idea. Now I have to know what "probably not Han Solo" means.
ReplyDeleteIt has to do with a scene from The Empire Strikes Back. Google "Hans Solo Hibernation". I'm not a Star Trek geek but I have seen all the movies.
DeleteGood job...A Weekly RoundUp...and what an interesting RoundUp group it was. I really enjoyed the Slow Blogging...SPOT ON..oops I think that may be too trendy of a comment...so I'll just say I'm mulling over the Manefesto. Soups On...okay if I substitute Pinto Beans for lentils and Spanish rice for long grain. It's a Texas thing. Look forward to next week, Alana!
ReplyDeleteThanks for including me, Alana! Some of those I'm already reading, but some are new to me.
ReplyDeleteAnd, Sue, your soup sounds yummy! If I hadn't just finished supper, I'd make some. :)
How nice to feature other blogs and bloggers! Seems like an idea we should spread around. I think I have been to all the blogs you mentioned here.
ReplyDeleteGood to see you still blogging Alana! I haven't had a chance to read these particular blogs yet but I will certainly have a look!
ReplyDeleteVisiting from Ultrablog.
Great idea, and great posts, thanks for sharing :)
ReplyDeleteThis is a lovely idea.. checking out the links.
ReplyDeleteFantastic idea, Alana. Off to check out some links. Holly's slow blogging has me intrigued.
ReplyDeletehmm a weekly roundup. I wonder if this is also good for SEO too.
ReplyDeleteI love the idea of reading someone elses weekly round up. It is a great way to learn new things and meet new people. thanks Alana!
ReplyDeleteGreat idea, Alana! I know a few of these great bloggers already and will check out the links.
ReplyDeleteThat's a great idea. Thank you for sharing these blogs. Will check it out!
