Mmmm… what’s that smell?

February 9th, 2006

*sniffs*

Do you smell that?  Smells ~*good*~ doesn’t it?  I think it’s coming from Kitchen Fun with Donna & Friends

That’s right, this week we are lucky to have a cooking blog visiting us as our tenant of the week!  They have a whole bunch of posters and an incredible amount of recipes.  I’m dismayed to admit that I have yet to try one of the recipes, but I’ve already printed some of them out ;)   (What can I say?  Sometimes I’m a little lazy…)

As of this posting, there are a lot of desserts listed on the front page, but with categories that list off the type of recipes offered, this makes for a nifty online cookbook.

Check ‘em out!  Show ‘em some love!

Another new tenant

February 1st, 2006

Ok, I’m pretty pleased with this one.  This is a blog that I read fairly often, but never actually got around to adding to my Blogroll.  It’s the only Mommy Blog that I read on any kind of regular basis.  She’s clever and well-written and with as many kids as she has, I’m SHOCKED that she has any time to write at all (meaning, I can’t complain that she doesn’t write as often as I’d like to read her ;) ).

Sometimes when I have my neice over, I’ll let her chase the cats or do her own thing while I mindlessly surf blogs or rate BotB battles.  Mommy’s Busy Take a Number is her *FAVORITE* blog of all time.  She loves the picture in the header and whenever she comes over now, comes to the computer, points at the monitor and says "I wanna see the mommy changing the baby.  I wanna see the picture NOW, Auntie Fyre!"

So I was psyched when I saw that she wanted to rent *my* blog.

I highly encourage everyone to check her out, chances are you’ll get at least a chuckle out of it.

And now for something completely different

January 25th, 2006

Time for a new tenant. Please join me in welcoming Blogs are for Wimps. Last week we had a literature and poetry site. This week we have a humor blog. We’re going for variety here. This should surprise no one. Heh. Probably everyone can find something to make them laugh: this video did it for me.

So, go ahead, show him some love - limited engagement, he’s only here for a week :)

And for everyone who bid, who I wasn’t able to rent to (it was hard, I had a lot to choose from), please try again next week!

Parting is such sweet sorrow

January 23rd, 2006

*sniff sniff*

Today is the last day that we are graced with Jeremy’s presence and the quick and easy link to Haunted House Dressing. His stories and poems and comics are quite a lot of fun, well written and I, for one, have greatly enjoyed having him here. In fact, I believe that once he’s gone as a tenant that he will claim the coveted top spot in a new category of Former Tenants, since I am picky enough to know that *all* my tenants will be good ones ;)

If you haven’t already, go give him some love and let him entertain, inspire or possibly horrify you before he is relegated to the ranks of just another link on my blog.

But don’t worry, in a couple of days, we’ll have someone new to poke at :twisted: Heh.

Plugalicious

January 18th, 2006

Well, I really only intended to plug him twice.  Once in the beginning (which I did) and then at the end right before the week was up.  However…

There’s an awful lot of content on Jeremy’s site, and I’m sure that things will be overlooked or that people just won’t have time to check them out.  So I’ve decided that whenever something really strikes me on his site I’m going to link to it as a recommendation for those of you who both have and have not yet visited him.

Today was a Faery Tale called Parsnip the Artist.  I think I need to share this with other people, too, so those of you on my spam email list, I apologize.  I’m loathe to call it a fairy tale, though that’s how it’s categorized by the writer because I think it’s really more of a fable.  Either way, it is WELL worth your time.

Show your love.

January 17th, 2006

I have my first tenant renting space on my blog.   Please join me in welcoming him.  I wound up with 6 offers to choose from, but his was the first bid made and I like how the color scheme meshes with mine ;)

Haunted House Dressing is a pretty cool site.  I was checking it out while looking at the offers I received and I really, really like the web comic Recycled, but I haven’t even scratched the surface of the content available therein.

Please take some time to show him some love.  I have a feeling everyone will be able to find something of interest on this site if you just take the time to look around.
