Five Favorites For Friday – Week Ending March 2, 2007
2007
Here are my Five Favorites For Friday (I might need to change this category to Four Favorites For Friday…” Take a look at my four favorite posts of the week:
Favorite #1 – It is now Spring Break for me, and I certainly have needed it. My First Favorite For Friday is a post written by Maggie of Ramblings Of Maggie entitled “I’m Not Dead!” complete with an image that sums up how I’ve been feeling the past two weeks. I’m sure many others feel the same way. I’d like to know, where did you get that image from?
Favorite #2 – Crunchy Carpets is reading a book entitled Good Kids, Bad Habits which she reviews at her blog. She says, “If you are more like me – a woman who can barely remember to feed herself and goes mental at thinking up healthy food 7 days a week. If you are a mom who struggles when it comes to activities or finding balance, or has no control over their chaotic households – then this book can be an inspiration.” Go to her blog and take a look at her insightful review.
Favorite #3 – When I came upon this post the other day, I said, “Wow…what an interesting way to look at prejudice and racism.” It’s all in how you define “colored.” Check out what Maria discovered about the word at her blog Maria Finds (the blog name is so appropriate!) in her post “You Calling Me Colored?” I chuckled.
Favorite #4 – This one is for all of us who blog. How many times have you written a post, published it, and looked at it again only to see you’ve misspelled a word or two or five (so simple, right?), used the wrong punctuation mark (ridiculous!), forgot a word (oh, come on!), wrote a sentence fragment by accident (yikes!!!), or used “to” instead of “too” (okay, so basic!)? It’s happened to all of us who write – I know it’s happened to me. Laura Spencer at Writing Thoughts has written some very practical suggestions entitled “Five Proofreading Tips That You Can Use Right Now By Yourself.” While her suggestions are geared toward “writers,” all of us who blog are writers. Take a look at Laura’s post and try implementing her suggestions right now! (By the way, if you spot any typos or egregious errors in any of my posts, please let me know!!!)
Next week, my favorites will be coming from blogs whose owners are going to the Ultimate Blog Party! If you want to join in the fun, click here.
See you next week. And, of course, when you check out the posts, please leave comments!
