A Pinch of Joy

Eat Healthy, Do it Yourself, Live Well, Have Fun.

Busy Monday 351

An impromptu conversation took place on Debbie Dabble’s blog a week or so ago in which a number of people said they wanted to find blogs to “just read”.    Not everybody wants to write, but a lot like to read for their own personal enjoyment. I had a friend who could not get out of the house and felt that blogs opened her world and let her feel like she was still a part of a community.   In that spirit, I am bringing back the blog roll — up there in the top bar where it says “Connections” there is a list of some blogs that I like to read on a regular basis.  Some are chatty, some are to the point.  But they are all written for the joy of it, to share genuine knowledge, a passion and  something of the writer. Some make money in various ways, others don’t.   If you have one or half a dozen family friendly blogs, that you really, really like to browse, leave a link in the comments.  I’ll check them out and add the ones who fit my criteria to the blog roll.  Thanks for stopping by to leave your awesome posts this week!  You’re the best!

    Hi Charlene,
    I’d love to have you visit my blog and consider it for your blogroll! I’m a retired teacher and write about everything from our adventures in our little camper, to crafts and DIY’s , life in Maine, book reviews, and home decorating. I think my blog is readable:-). I found your blog through Debbie-Dabble and will be following. Have also added you to my Blog Roll. Happy Sunday!
