The Art of Blogging


Blogging for us started a year ago when we were getting ready to take a trip to France. It seemed like a great way to keep in touch with our Island Hommies. Instead of emailing everyone individually while we were on the road we just posted on our blog important events of the day which generally consisted of the pastries we ate and the fabulous places we had been. Our friends could then comment back and we could see how much everyone missed us... or not. We continued to "blog" after the vacation was over now about our life at home. Somewheres along the line our name changed from friends in france to "Life on an Island". We are Island girls and blog junkies.

There are a bazillion blogs out there. Some good, some not so good and some fabulous ones. We would like to share some of our favorites. Stick us and the ones below in your "Favorites" and you'll never watch TV again. There is great cooking ideas with recipes, crafts, garden hints, and just silly stuff to read. You will laugh, cry and take cold showers. You will also forget where you started and lose track of time.

They are listed in no particular order although Confessions of a Pioneer woman is #1 in our book and will take up hours of your blessed day.

Have fun and don't forget to keep checking back with us.
