Thanks Sam, I can't believe we just started blogging only about a month ago on the same day, same class.
ReplyDeleteYour blogs, two of them, are very good. I'd not be surprised to see them end up on the top ten of cooking blogs.
Nancy is amazing. I think she will always stand out whenever she does anything in the writing world. Her blog is great. Congratulations, Nancy. I enjoy your blog so much. I'm glad its being recognized (all ready!).
ReplyDeleteNancy, I can't get my computer to add your blog--it shuts down. And everytime I try to read Ruminations from the Distant Hills, it shuts down, too. But I'm hoping to have it up on my blog list soon.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations!
