Today It's All About You! Show Us What You're Made Of!

Today, I have taxes and family on the brain - as well as a few other things. So it wasn't easy to come up with something for today's post...

So, I referred to my list of blog post ideas (if I don't keep one...well, you've seen how it can go here in the past with erratic posting)...and remembered, that I'm very very interested in YOU, friends.

If you're anything like me (and the simple fact that you are here, indicates a high likelihood you are) - you are also on the constant lookout for interesting blogs (and handicrafts).

There's just something about blogging...

But if you have a blog (or handmade product, tutorial, etc.), then you know, that promoting it can be a bitch. And I had this idea:

There's a lot of us in this wee space called the EVA Blog at this point. And we have a lot of similar interests, ideas, talents, and aesthetics. Why not promote and share your blogs and whatnots here today - in the comments?!

And this way, all of the readers here can see your blog, thing-a-ma-jig, tutorial, and what-nots; and you can spend the day enjoying it with less time devoted to work.

Sound good? I hope so.

Best,

Tara

Oooh...I'm telling! Five Things You Didn't Know About Me...

Inspired recently by Elsie Cake's recent post "Friday Night Secret Telling Party", which was inspired by this cool chick's similar-themed post...I decided I would share some things about myself with you that you might not know yet:

I love Wheel of Fortune, and secretly hope to be on the show and win a ton o'money!

Peanut Butter and Chocolate Ice Cream is second to none, runners up being mint chip and pistachio. Everything else may as well be vanilla.

Someday, I want a self-feeding frog (bugs totally freak me out!) - one that looks like this little guy here would suit me nicely.

All kids play fantasy role-playing games...you know, Cops and Robbers, Princess Dress-Up, etcetera. I was the weird kid playing out Les Miserables and Watership Down...it was always a fight between me and this one girl as to who got to be Eponine. Pure dorkiness, I know.

On my own little 'bucket list' (doesn't everyone have one?), I have: learn to play the cello - and I definitely wouldn't mind learning on a gorgeous glossy red one like this:

I took piano lessons in fourth grade, but they went about as well as if I were learning on a piano like this:

What are your secrets? I hope you'll share some with me - and you can always take the dare and share on your blog - it's kinda fun!
