I really thought that naming five fantastic bloggers would be easy. It’s not. There are so many so I hope I don’t upset anyone by just picking five. In truth I could easily list fifty!
This is one of my favorite undiscovered blogs. The Strong and Not So Silent Type perfectly describes my friend Nea that writes it. She taunts me with her sunny San Diego life with three girls. She is hilarious and sometimes a bit adult humored. If you need a good heart to heart or a laugh she’s the one. Not many know of her site (23 followers) but the ones that do (like myself) know its a diamond in the rough. She doesn’t always post regularly so always make sure to pop in and check. You’ll be glad you did.
Wanna meet the perfect wife, perfect mom, and perfect kid? Then you need to check the perfect life of Whitney. Okay so maybe she’s not perfect but it seems that way. She is deeply in love with her hubby, absolutely captivated with motherhood, and living her dream of being a house wife. From looking in money doesn’t seem to be an issue even though she’s a SAHM and her hubby is a med student still. I am constantly at awe at the decor around… especially at her mothers. I’d be scared to be in either of their homes. It would be hands in pockets like at a fine china store. Even with all that perfectness I can’t help but peek in regularly and see how little Levi is doing. So go visit The Glamorous Life of a Housewife and see for yourself. If you have the time check all the way back and look for posts on her baby shower, her nephew Max’s nursery, Levi’s Nursery, Levi’s first bday, weekend at her moms, etc. I could go on and on.
Then there is the crafter in me. Way back before blogging I scrapbooked. All. The. Time. It’s what got me through my stress of the fire. I use to just play with pictures and paper for hours now. I blog. I want to get back into it. I do it here and there but not like I used to. Timeless Paper Arts is a blog that shares tips, finished product, and life. I met her in one of the Etsy Chats a few years ago and peek in since.
This blog is one I’ve only discovered a short while ago. Two Peas and their Pod has the best recipes. I haven’t tried any yet but the Cinnamon Streusel Pancakes they recently posted is definitely on my to try list! I have a lot of Exploring to do there, if you stop by and find a good one let me know!
I put BlueViolet last. Not because I thought of her last, I actually thought of her first. Many of you probably already know her.If you don’t you should. Nut In A Nutshell is a great blog and Blue Violet is an amazing woman and funny as hell. I had the pleasure of meeting her this past summer at BlogHer in NYC and she only gets better in person. You must take a peek over to her site and leave her a comment!
Don’t forget to enter the 50 Fabulous Wishes contest for a chance to win $1,000 to support a friend’s wish. I was selected for this Tropicana Trop50 sponsorship by the Clever Girls Collective, which endorses Blog With Integrity, as I do. I received compensation to use and facilitate my post.
Thanks for the mention!
Great list. A couple I haven’t read before, but I agree, Blue Violet is awesome!
Aside from A Nut in a Nutshell (who is all she claims to be and more ^_^ ) these are all new to me. I’ve bookmarked this so I can check them all out later!
I love A Nut in a Nutshell! Thanks for sharing about the other 4 blogs. I am always looking for new blogs to read so I really appreciate this.
That is a great list and even a couple I haven’t been too.
Ohhh I LOVE A Nut in a Nutshell! Going to check out the others right now.

Great list and new blogs for me to check out!!
Thanks for the list. I am actually just familiar with one of the blogs so I am off to visit a couple more of them.
You didn’t even tell me or warn me or hand me a tissue in advance for these tears welling up in my eyes. I am touched and honored and humbled. Thank you my dear sweet friend!!! I love you!
I love you too! Hee, Hee! That’s the whole point, its more touching when you don’t know ๐ I even kept your secret ๐ LOL
You picked some great blogs! I love A Nut in a Nutshell too, although I don’t visit any blogs nearly as much as I’d like to lately.
I already knew about Two Peas, but had not seen any of the other yet. Thanks for adding to my daily read.
Great list!!!
I love finding new blogs, so I can’t wait to check all of these out!
Thanks for recommending these blogs. I have only heard of one of them, so you have given me 4 good ones to look at. I love finding new blogs.
