Simply Breakfast
If ever there was a reason to commit to blogging, then Jennifer Causey at Simply Breakfast found it.
Last week Holly over at Decor 8 discussed to what degree blogging shapes our lives in terms of our committment to making the ordinary, the everyday, picture pretty or blogworthy and it is something that has been bothering my head in quite the most delightful fashion since…
