LUNATIC'S LOVING THIS "NEW TO ME" BLOG:
CONFESSIONS OF A COOKBOOK QUEEN- Okay you guys know I am somewhat slow on the uptake of the bigger blogs. I had only read one blog when I decided to start mine. It was a friend's family blog and was private. I had no idea food blogs existed. So I am not completely dialed in. Forgive me. Lol! Now this little gem was brought to my attention today in fact, with the help of my friend Ann from Cooking Healthy For Me. I went over and fell completely head over heels in love with this one. I cannot even tell you how much I love it. Like to infinity, and possibly beyond. Okay....yes....decided...beyond it is. It is so amazing, and girlie and sparkly and screams "Kim read me". So I did....and I will....compulsively. I feel a restraining order coming on. X infinity!
SOMETHING I JUST HAD TO SHARE:
I'd love you guys to pop by a blog called Sweet Salty Spicy and check out Charlie. This young woman is the bomb. Not only can she cook like a rock star but she shared a DIY project this week that blew my mind. So stop on by and check out her DIY Wipe Off Weekly Menu Board. This lady is going places. She is a total delight. And the bomb!
LUNATIC'S COMING SOON TEASER:
A stunning guest poster to delight you!
A jar recipe that will knock your socks off, and it's long overdue to knock your socks off!
Slow cooker madness, but in a good way!
Ice Cream fun, how do you top last week's crazy banana split? Wait till you see!
Meatless Mondays returns!
Bon Appetit winner will be announced!
Some breaking news....but not sure I can share yet....cross fingers....toes....eyes....t's!
Okay folks that about wraps up this weekly edition of Lunatic Loves These Links. Hope you enjoyed it. I know I sure have fun sharing it with you. I wish I could share more with you but these linky lovefests take some time to put together so I have to limit how many I can share. Or I'd never cook....or eat....or see horsey....or kids....or hubs.....or you!!!!!!!!!!!
Toodles and smoochies.xx

ReplyDeleteI know right! Thanks to the lovely you. Cannot thank you enough! xx
DeleteHa-you do have your work cut out for you on topping that banana split! I like these type of posts, it intros me to some new blogs and gives me a preview of whats coming on your blog. Keep it coming and enjoy the day!
ReplyDeleteThank Tina. I really enjoy doing them. I keep wanting to add photos but wonder if I'd be biting off more than I can chew emailing everyone for permission every week to use their photos. Might be a lot of trouble.
