  1. I will do this correctly later lol but so far -

    If you are not following Meg (aka the blog you are currently reading) then you are seriously missing out. Her posts are amazing and always leave a smile on my face. Also as you can see, she interacts with her followers and you can tell that she is grateful for each and every one of us.

  7. I visited 3 blogs and loved them all... Its always fun finding new blogs. Oh I also mentioned your mingle monday in my blog.

    I visited Single Girl in the city. I like it a lot and she seems like a cool girl. I liked reading about her new macbook buying adventures bc i am a bit of a machead. She is a great writer

    I also visited Juci Life which has a fantastic layout and it is a very easy read. She has a good variety of blog entries and is very unique.

    The last blog I visited was Lucky in Love. I enjoyed reading about all her honeymoon adventures. She did a great job detailing everything and she seems to take a lot of pcitures to share which is always fun. She also has a cute layout.

    :)

    The first blog I visited was O. is Me, and I thought it was really cute! I loved the blog's layout and writing style and thought her anniversary pictures were gorgeous.
    Then I visited Yolanda over at Creative Flair, and got hungry just looking at the picture she posted to go along wuth her recipe!! Another cute blog...I especially like it as I think it's original and a little quirky!!

  13. Hello, I'm glad the same format has stuck around from last week! Loved finding new blogs and followers then and hopefully this week will bring the same. Today I visited....

    ~Creative Flair: So who doesn't love a blog with pictures of dessert? Definitely not this girl! Delish. This blog is much like mine, sorta random just about life in general and I absolutely adore the pictures on the right column, gorgeous!

    ~Julie's Jottings: I found this blog very inspirational, about how to make your life better and more fulfilled. I love the idea of monthly goal setting as well as finding something good each day.

    Thanks for that info aimiee is super cute. She is very open with sharing her opinions and her life.

    The apple doesn't fall far is very cute. I love all of the finds that Tiffany shares.

    A Single Girl in the City is great! I love her writing. Very take me as I am.

    Girl in the Sunshine: gorgeous layout, love the quick-hitting little notes about products, random thoughts, movies...whatever!

    The Simple, Sweet Life: super cute, love the tales of her daily goings on and personal pics. Presh!

  20. This is my first time participating!

    I've so far visited Juici Life and loved it at first glance. I always enjoy seeing other peoples' bucket lists and it's fun to see that she's been checking things off right and left!

    I also visited A Girl in the Sunshine and loved the layout. I saw her post about the running skirts and was drawn in! I love finding bloggers who share interests with me!

    Thanks for hosting this every week, Meg! Such a great idea!

  22. AHHHH I just started typing this really long comment about all of the blogs I visitied and then I accidentally clicked on something and I lost it!!

    Anyway, I posted my link in the morning (I was only the third one) with the intent of coming back later in the day and reading blogs! Ugh, busy day in my classroom getting ready for the new school year.

    First of all - a BIG BIG Thank you to all the lovelies who left comments over at my blog and the nice words said here. You guys seriously made my day.

    Here are my blog visits:
    1. Single Girl in NYC - I actually started following Nikki this past weekend. Really love her up front and completely blunt writing style. She's also quite hilarious.
    2. Creative Flair - Love her blog layout (almost like camouflage)! Her post today almost made me go crazy because it looked so frigggggggin delicious!!!!
    3. Ayers Travel Adventures - She seems relatively new to blogging. I really like her straightforward and simple layout and simple posts. Easy to read and I like it!
    4. Lucky in Love - Super cute blog! Seems like we have a lot in common, being newlyweds and all! I absolutely loved reading about and seeing pictures from her honeymoon in Cancun!
    5. Julie's Jottings - Teacher, like me! And I really enjoyed reading her To-Do list bc I love lists!
    6. Trying to Throw my Arms Around the World - Very inspiring and uplifting. Like a breath of fresh air. LOVE.

    YAY! Great day!!!

  23. Hi! I love this Mingle Monday idea!
    I visited "25 before 25"...I really liked the header design and the 25 list...I've been thinking of doing something like this for a while!
    I also visited The Simple, Sweet Life and loved seeing the pictures of her adorable puppy!

    Thanks for hosting this Meg! (And by the way you have a very cute and unique blog yourself!)

  25. This is my 2nd week of Meg's Monday Mingle. I love it!
    My two blogs for this week are
    1)Lucky in Love- I didn't realize I was already a follower until I tried to 'follow' and it informed me that I already was! Anyway, I love this blog because I am a sucker for anything having to do with weddings. Their honeymoon photos are gorgeous as well as their wedding photos. I can't wait to read about their new life together!

    2) Northwest Betty. I cannot wait to keep reading this blog! One of my dreams is to travel out west. Betty and Cowboy are such a precious couple! They look like they have a lot of fun together. And those spring rolls they made yesterday look amazing....

    ReplyDelete
  26. Tried to comment on Northwest Betty's blog but it wouldn't work :-( I love finding other bloggers in my region!

  28. My second week Mingling! :) I also remembered to post about it on my blog... ;) http://www.TooMuchToDoSoLittleTime.com

    This week I visited:
    Creative Flair. There I found a divine looking Rice Krispie treat. Can I hear … YUMMMMM?!?

    The apple doesn’t fall far… and she had some really cute photos and ideas for a baby shower.

    Making the Most of Megan. She talked about her recent trip to a vineyard and asked a question which entices you to leave a comment. :)

  29. You are such a hit ;)

  32. i read 25 Before 25's blog about moving to NYC and training for a marathon. it was great, because i'm planning to do one of those, and it's NOT running.

    i also read In Better Hands having a great summer and becoming more of the person she wants to be. it was very encouraging, and might inspire me to blog about the same thing.

    ReplyDelete
  33. I checked out:

    Too Much To Do, Too Little Time - Love Stef's posts and random thoughts of the day!

    The Kimchee Chronicles - I'm really looking forward to Karen's new Whatcha Reading? Wednesday posts. Super cute blog!

    ReplyDelete
  34. I loved A Lily Life - her post about her dryer literally made me laugh out loud.

    I also encourage you to check out Lucky in Love - I've been following her blog for a while and she has such great wedding details! It's such an interesting blog to read!

    ReplyDelete
  35. This week I'm loving Throw the Starfish Back and Amanda and Don's blog.

    Throw the Starfish Back - such a great first post for the blog - left me wanting to read more posts! An amazing story as inspiration for the title - one I had never heard before and am glad to now know!

    Amanda and Don - fabulous photos and who can't resist reading about anything European? I know I can't! When I'm not studying I'll be back to visit her blog and read about her two adopted great danes! I'm a sucker for great danes!
