So, my dear friend Hamlette from Hamlette's Soliloquy started this fun little tag about blogs. And I love the idea, a way to praise and encourage your fellow bloggers, plus I made it to her list, for which I'm extremely touched.
Then, a newer blog I'm following, Heidi over at Along the Brandywine, tagged me, so that's 2 reasons for me to fill this out!
Thanks to both of you!
The Rules
Thank the person who tagged you
Answer the questions
Tag some blogging friends
Blog that makes me laugh
I'd say that the one that makes me laugh the most is probably Olivia's blog, Meanwhile, in Rivendell.
Blog that makes me think
Definitely Charity at History!Chick since she is always able to find deep meanings in whatever fandom she's currently interested in.
Blog that teaches me things
Ooh, I love Olivia's blog (a different Olivia) called Hopeful Honey. I love to crochet and she has such gorgeous patterns and tips on new stitches!
Blog with beautiful headers
Okay, so I'm pretty much assured that Natalie's blog, Raindrops on Roses and Whiskers on Kittens will always have a lovely header.
Blogger who takes great pictures
Sadly, I don't follow a lot of blogs that take their own photos, so I'm going to tout Kirsty Mitchell's collection called Wonderland. The woman is gifted beyond belief. Photos range between G and PG13, all fantasy and fairy tale themed. GORGEOUS!
Blogger whose recommendations I trust
I definitely trust the book recommendations by Birdie at Lady of the Manor and Hamlette at The Edge of the Precipice.
New blog I'm enjoying
I like literally JUST started following Jayne's blog, Adventures at Tiny Toadstool Cottage, but I love her reviews and thoughts already! I anticipate this will be the start of a long blogging friendship!
Blog I've followed the longest
I've been following Charity at History!Chick for as long as I've been blogging, even since before I was on blogger but on Livejournal.
Blog I've started following the most recently
I just started following Heidi at Along the Brandywine and am enjoying getting to know her interests and opinions.
And I'm going to tag just a few people:
Lady of the Manor
Adventures at Tiny Toadstool Cottage
Sidewalk Crossings
If anyone else wants to fill out the tag, you most certainly may!

My brain is like the TARDIS. It's bigger on the inside. ;)
ReplyDeleteKidding. Thanks for the recommendation. I enjoy reading your posts, too.
Yes, sometimes your brain could be compared to the Tardis. ;)
DeleteAw, thanks for the tag! I'll see about getting some answers up. I like these type posts because they let me find new blogs to enjoy reading.
ReplyDeleteYes, these types of tags are awesome because you never know what new friends you may find!
Delete(I'm mildly enchanted by the fact that a bunch of people are actually doing the tag I created.)
ReplyDeleteThat Wonderland photo collection is fascinating! And Hopeful Honey has a lot of really cute patterns -- I've just favorited her Etsy shop.
Well, it's a delightful tag. You did a great job with it.
DeleteWonderland is amazing, yes. My sister helped fund Kirsty's book release, so she has a copy of the actual book and it is incredible.
Hopeful Honey is a delight! I just love her work so much!
I wanted to create a tag that wasn't just all talking about me, me, me all the time, and this is what I came up with :-)
DeleteThanks for the shout-out and the tag! I will definitely post it as soon as this pesky PhD thesis is out of the way ;-)
ReplyDeleteI am still impressed whenever I think of you and PhD. I don't think I would have the energy, or maybe I would, if the right degree came along.
DeleteBeing interested in your subject is definitely important. But these last few weeks, my energy is really running out. I just keep repeating to myself: 'just a few more weeks!'
DeleteSo glad you were able to fill these out, Carissa! And awwwww... Thank you and I'm really enjoying getting to know you, too! :)
ReplyDeleteDefinitely, and thank you for tagging me!
