Next Blog

Have you ever hit "next blog" at the top of the page? Every once in a while I'll hit it a few times and see what's up with random strangers. Eight times out of ten there is a photo of three young children at the top, perfectly spaced 18-24 months apart. They are smiling and happy and if you scroll down far enough, sure enough, one of them is wearing a BYU t-shirt or there is a post about a recent family trip to Utah with photos in front of the temple. I find this quite odd. It makes me wonder: do only Mormons blog? Does google/blogger/the internet know that I am Mormon and hence send me to only Mormon blogs?

On another note, I bought a food processor on Saturday. For a long while I thought that they were just another counter cluttering gadget, but lately as I've delved more into cooking, I've wished I had one so many times. Thanks to the Bed Bath and Beyond 20% off coupon and a Kitchen Aid rebate, I got a pretty good deal and have used it every day since I bought it (three times). Today I made "one ingredient ice cream" which is basically pureed frozen bananas. I added a little peanut butter for protein and interestingness. Mmmmm. Anyway, I'm really excited about this and am excited about the possibilities!

Also, I'm working on some super fun crafty projects that will have to remain a mystery for now. I will reveal when the time is right.

Maybe Mormons ARE the only ones who blog. Hmmmm... :)

Excited to hear about your new crafty projects!

Okay...so I was very intrigued by your post, but I think I must be an idiot or something because every time I clicked on it a blog came up in a foreign language. Like Japanese and Greek and stuff. Is that normal? I found one that was in English but they were farmers and talked about a homechurch and were homeschooled and had long beards and seemed really weird. Am I just not doing it right?

I have actually never clicked on the "next blog" thing. I will try that. Also, I adore food processors. I use ours constantly. Honestly, the best home purchase ever. And I want to see the crafts...

This is probably the very reason why I think about quitting my blog. It is too much and exactly as you described. (Jenny invited me to read her blog today and I am just going to babble on all of yours!)
