I was exhausted last night & going to bow out of a gathering at Erin’s to introduce more of our friends to Jamie & her blogging savviness. That is, until I found out Jamie so sweetly was bringing me Gluten Free goodies including….a CUPCAKE! I […]
Last weekend I had such a fun adventure with my Blogger Buddies, Jamie (http://mngirlinla.com/) & Erin going to visit the horses often featured on her http://horsingaroundinla.wordpress.com/ blog.
