WFMW - What Are Your Favorite Blogs?




It’s a backwards Works for Me Wednesday for the Rocks in My Dryer community, so instead of offering up the little pieces of what works for me, I get to ask a question.

I was wondering what blogs and challenges you love and have to check out regularly? Which one is on your “Must Read” list? What blogs have inspired you, helped you push your life into new directions, or helped you make connections? I started this blog in November and I am excited about all the great blogs out there!

Please check back here Friday. I am going to post my first blog interview with one of my favorite bloggers: Janet Wallace from A Slice of Pink!

My daily reads:
Like Merchant Ships
Rocks In My Dryer (obviously, LOL)
Ask Sister Mary Martha
Home Santuary (current challenge there r/t homekeeping)
I'm An Organizing Junkie

Those are my favorites for various reasons- but all are updated frequently and have family-friendly content.

Someone Being Me said...

My must reads are Amalah, Swistle, Nothing But Bonfires, Dooce, Miss Zoot, Crib Chronicles, Toddled Dredge, All and Sundry, and Sweet Salty. Those ladies are all amazing.

I can't find my blog said...

My daily reads are:Rocks, The Elff diet, Mom to the Screaming masses, Notes from the trenches, Big mama, Boo mama, The Bloggess, Busy Mom, and Woulda Coulda Shoulda. (I think that's it but you can find others in my sidebar.)

I'm a blogging baby, too, but really enjoying things so far. I'll be back to read more!

I was gonna say confessions of a pioneer woman, too. I sometimes check her blog several times a day. She is really funny. I have just recently started reading her blog, and I had to go to her archives and read every single blog she has ever posted. Funny stories and lots of great pictures of her life on a ranch. Her pictures were an inspiration for me to take up photography myself.

Jessica said...

BooMama, BigMama, LPM, Pioneerwoman, and Antique Mommy are all great! (and Shannon, of course). Welcome to blogging... it's addicting!

Jendeis said...

I started with Rocks in my Dryer, Don't Try This at Home, and What Was I Thinking. Soon added a ton of others, so I think it's simpler to just give you a link to my Bloglines page. Happy reading!

Lizz @ Yes, and So is My Heart said...

I'm new at blogging too, so I checked out your comments for recommendations.

I started with Rocks in My Dryer, but I also really like Musings of a Housewife, BigMama, and In the Midst of It. Another one I check occassionally is Embracing my Cup. Her sweet stories of motherhood always challenge me to be sweeter to my children.

Hope that helps.

Kim said...

I'm going to forth? the Confessions of a Pioneer Woman. Great cooking blog as well.

Without a doubt... Confessions of a Pioneer Woman... funny, educational, etc.

Ms. Kathleen said...

I have the blogs I read fairly regularly on my blog sidebar (The Neighborhood). There are so many great ones. I look forward to reading yours more often. God Bless!

Suzanne said...

I sort my blogroll by topics and will go through binges of just reading, say, my gardening blogroll. Then I'll switch to the mama blogs for awhile, then maybe my bookish blogroll. It rather depends on my interests at the time.

Yes, Pioneer Woman is a hoot and i like her cooking blog too.

On the sidebar on my blog, I have something like 60 or 70 blogs (just about all in my google reader) in a scrolling list of "Blogs I Enjoy."

I just love reading so many blogs, but do need Google Reader to help me keep caught up.

I love a good food blog. If you do too, you should check out these three:

Steamy Kitchen
Smitten Kitchen
and...
ThePioneer Woman Cooks (Incidentally, I never realized she had another blog until just now reading other people's suggestions. I'll have to check it out.)

And you would be welcome to check out my humble blog too, if you want. ;0)
