Two Year Blogiversary!

Can you believe it?!?! Tomorrow marks two years of blogging for me!!

*throws confetti on all your heads*

I've made so many friends, found a few indispensable critique partners, and I've learned so so so much. Thank you to all my lovely 373 followers, I appreciate each and every one of you!

So how should I celebrate this anniversary of blogging? What would you like to see from me? A giveaway? A contest? Giftcards? Specific books? Let me know what rocks your blogiversary world!

And since today is Friday, here are five random things on my mind today:

1. Food journaling is hard.

2. My lemon tree is inside most of this week, since it's been freezing at night. I think it likes the toasty temperature because a lot of the little flower buds have opened up and they smell HEAVENLY!

3. I keep forgetting Christmas is so close, and there are still a couple people I have NO CLUE what to gift them with.

4. Santa has elves, we have Target. So true. So. True.

5. Every year I let myself buy a new Christmas album, and this year I bought Michael Buble's newest called "Christmas," if you can believe it. Now I usually enjoy his songs on the radio. I love his throw-back voice and a little part of me tingles at the thought that he can sell out our largest stadium in town in the matter of an hour (isn't it awesome that the general population can still appreciate this style of music?! I love it.) This album is loaded with classics sung only the way he can sing them, and it's a welcome addition to my Christmas playlist.

    Congrats on your blogversary!
    I agree that food journaling is hard. It's amazing what we put in our mouths when we don't hold ourselves accountable. Eating well so you don't have to write "chocolate bar" in your food journal can be tough.

    Happy Blogversary!!! For me you don't have to do anything else but continue to keep going! You are one of my longest blogging buddies and I'd hate to see you disappear!

    My wife and I have 75 Christmas CD's (yes - I counted them this year) and we always buy one or two new ones each year. MB was one of them this year. Excellent addition!!

    Have a wonderful weekend!

    I'm not a huge Michael Buble fan in general, but his Christmas album is wonderful :)

    And I saw your fitness blog. Get it, girl! I should do the same, but alas, I don't have that amount of motivation. haha

    Happy blogiversary! :) I'm behind on everything, but I HAVE been listening to Christmas music on the radio. And we have the tree up, thanks to my husband. But beside that, ugh.

    Giveaways or contests are my FAVE!

    Congrats! At least you remembered. I have no idea how many years ago I began blogging. And totally missed that this weekend's post was #1500.
