Being Super Social!

At the beginning of February, I participated in the Lots of Love Blogger Swap. The idea was to get the name of another blogger, (lovingly) stalk their blog for a bit, and then send them a care package in time for Valentine's Day. I was lucky enough to get a box from the crafty Denyse from Glitter, Glue and Paint.

She sent me a Charm City Cakes wedding cake pop kit, a bag of Swedish Fish, and a recipe for... fried green tomatoes! It was absolutely perfect! I haven't had a chance to try the cake pops yet, although I can't wait. That's going to be an activity for next week, I think. (I have to confess, I've never even eaten a cake pop  before. Feel free to judge me.)  I've been chomping on Swedish Fish. And, I've finally got a tried-and-true fried green tomatoes recipe which, when I make them, will be one more check mark off on my 100 in 365 list!  Thanks, Denyse! That package made my day!

Today, I'm lucky enough to be a co-host for Sarah's blog hop. You will probably recognize her since she blogs at Life In a Breakdown and has been chilling on my sidebar for the whole month of February. If you've got a blog, feel free to link up and hop around! We'd love to have you!

    1. Hey Kerry! Thank you so much for following! I forget the tutorial that I used (otherwise I'd put the link out here), but I googled it to find out how to do it. The information on Pinterest's site doesn't work well for Blogger.
