what is this?

What is this blog thing anyway? I continue to question the time that I spend here at the computer. Blogging is sometimes difficult for me, yet it is so addictive. Part of me wants to be part of this incredibly big thing yet another part of me says, forget it. Find people to talk to, not websites.

But, as I've said before, sometimes the topic I want to discuss is difficult to talk about. Additionally, having a baby and staying home limits my daily contact with people that I might be able to discuss such topics with. Of course, once he starts talking I'm sure I will introduce topics that aren't so concerned with which animal makes which noise.

I love staying home. Believe me. I love it.

I am grateful to have this outlet of thought. My journals usually turn into lists and doodles. Blogging, as my cousin Sarah concluded, "allows us to hear the voices of friends and family members who are spread all over the world."

So, where was I. Right, what is this blog thing anyway. I really wanted it to be a craft blog. I wanted to showcase my projects and inspirations, make some virtual friends (Hello Natasha! Bonjour Valerie!), participate in swaps and craft-alongs... I still probably will. I hope to anyway.

I don't know where the recipes fall into this. I guess when I don't know what to say, I like to talk about food. Who knows.
