Then, by all means, WELCOME! I’m so glad you accepted the invitation, but your arrival leaves me pensive (not to be confused with "pensieve")–just what can I prepare to make your visit more enjoyable? How about some eats that are both delicious AND healthy? I think chocolate-dipped strawberries fits that bill :).
Before we go any further, I suppose, I should introduce myself. My name is Robin, and one of the few things I WON’T give up is my last name and specific location.
Because I know you have a lot of friends to visit, let’s do this as a simple list.
1) Although I am in total denial I don’t exactly have a foot etish-fa, I seem to find reason to blog about feet occasionally. This one is my favorite, but I also wrote about ’em here and here, oops! and I almost forgot, a painful post here. Apparently I’m also bi-lingual; I speak pig-latin when I don’t wanna be googled for "stuff". They wouldn’t find what they were lookin’ for, anyway…:/.
2) I’d rather read your blog and write for mine then master the technical side of blogging. But if someone could wave a magic wand so I could do things more quickly, I’d be much obliged. Thanks to Chilihead, Mike, Michele and Peter, who have helped me (or at least offered to do so) over my bloggity life.
3) Sometimes you learn more about me than you’d care to when I get tagged. I’m weird, I like to read, 10 Things Tell a Lot
4) I’ve been a poet for a LONG time! Sometimes SILLY, sometimes SERIOUS.
5) If you’re a mom who’s ever struggled with your kids, you really should read THIS if you don’t read anything else of mine.
6) I have a positive attitude about life.
7) I LOVE TO LAUGH!!!
OKAY, I’m a blogger, I could link a thousand more, but this is enough, it gives you a glimpse.
This party thing is out of control…I can’t imagine ANYONE hitting EVERYBODY! I just checked and there are 672 names on the list!!! Know what that does to someone like me? :/
Here’s my initial PARTY POST to explain stuff if your blogging head has been in the sand. I think that’s where I’m going to stick mine now…!
Ha! I love the picture.
A perfect look for you.
I love the barefoot beach pic!
And chocolate strawberries? You might never get rid of me!
Don’t forget there is ANOTHER contest to be posted on my blog, probably later today or tomorrow morning. Its gonna be fun! And there is another shot at a prize, so come back by.
made me think of one of my favorit s Ricky Nelson (Garden Party)
I went to a bloggin party, to introduce me to new friends
A chance to share old posts and read them all again
When I got to the blogging party, no one knew my last name
No one recognized me, no picture looks the same
CHORUS
But it’s all right now, I learned my template well.
You see, ya can’t please everyone, so ya got to please yourself
Jenny, you should read the original post it accompanied (I had fun with that one).
Thanks, Leslie, sounds like we’d be happy snackin’ together :).
Dariana, you’re gonna wear me out!
Pamela…I resemble that remark (song) ;).
That post about your son could’ve been my story -only I’m still in the midst of it. Thanks for the encouragement!
Perfect. A perfect intro, complete with those divine-looking strawberries (my husband’s fav.) and that crazy pic of you with the glasses. (The regulars here have seen that before, right?) I’m chuckling–thanks–and so glad I met you quite awhile ago. You keep me from getting too grounded (low voice) and serious. Actually, I love to laugh too!
Thanks for stopping by on your regular route and leaving such nice comments. I guess I’m disqualified from your prizes but anyhoo, no problemo. Happy birthday to Tad and par-tay on! (((Hugs)))
I think those strawberries could make it to me in the mail…
and WHY does your site offer to remember my personal information and then NEVER does? what a tease!
Mmm… I love chocolate dipped strawberries. Had some the other weekend when I visited my sister. My niece kept making more and more for my son and me. 🙂
I must be your opposite. I’d rather work on techy things and less on the content 😉
Shoot, and last night I just watched TV with the fiance, sipping my whiskey while she had her wine, and all the while there was a party going on. Well, honestly I don’t know if even chocolate-dipped strawberries could’ve drawn me away from watching Heroes (comic-book geek that I once was, maybe still am).
Then again, the dentist did discover a little cavity in my molars yesterday so perhaps I could do with less chocolate-dipped things, huh?
Carrie…”this, too, shall pass” (saying that over and over and over again helped some days…:/. I prayed for you…I’ve prayed for every person who has responded similarly…).
E-mom, good memory, you have 😉 (that pic was from my “Do I look like Lucy?” post 🙂 ).
Janice, I wonder if that’s happening to other people… It was screwy a while back, but I thought it was fixed! I’m just glad you’re willin’ to go through the hassle of filling it in over and over :/.
Mike, I woulda guessed that about you (the techie stuff, not the strawberry love). Hey, did you not notice the HT I gave you in the freakin’ post????!
James, you romantic, you…sippin’ whiskey? drinkin’ wine??? You NEEDED chocolate-dipped strawberries ;). It would’ve offset the “ir-romantic” tv show you made your fiance sit through ;).
Brush and floss and then you can eat all the chocolate you want! 😀
Hi, I’m Adam from All Things Film. I found your blog through the Blog Party, so thought I’d stop & say hello!
Hello again Robin. Just passing through for the free food… And the excellent blog posts, of course!
There are almost 900 party invites now. Sheesh, I’m going to be meeting people for forever! (And I do plan on hitting everyone. I might not leave a note everywhere, but I’ll at least mingle. As if I had nothing better to do…)
Thanks for the dipped strawberries. They hit the spot!
Hello! It’s so nice to meet you! The chocolate covered strawberries are absolutely yummy! Thanks for sharing =)
