Blog Birthday Giveaway Introduction

One year ago tomorrow, I sent my very first blog post out into the great wide blogoshpere.  I had no idea where it was headed or what path it would take, all I knew was that it had been three months since our last visit home to New Orleans and three weeks until the next, and I was the kind of homesick that makes you understand why it my be catagorized an illness.  And with every thought leaning towards how much I missed this magical place, I started writing.  From there came posts about all of my favorite things - family, friends, food, travel, fashion, the Saints.  I had no expectations that this blog would be anything other than an outlet of creativity for me, but it has given me the opportunity to connect with such amazing people.  I love reading your blogs and being inspired by your words/designs/photos, and I hope that you have enjoyed this last year as much as I have. 

To celebrate - The next six days will be filled with giveaways and a guest post by one of my very special real life blog friends!  I hope you come back each day and leave a little note and sign up for your chance to win some great treasures.

  2. Aw, happy blog birthday :) My book club is reading A Confederacy of Dunces and we're supposed to bring a NOLA themed food item--I think I'll be making a king cake. I really wanted to bring beignets, but I don't trust my frying abilities that much!
