A big thank you to Cassandra at Bookish Bird for awarding me the Versatile Blogger Award, Liebster Award, and the Irresistibly Sweet Blog Award, two of which I’ve already received. Thanks Cassandra! I appreciate you!
Hmm…I’ve not seen The Versatile Blogger Award floating around the blogosphere yet, but I like that my blog’s considered versatile, ie, adaptable, flexible, multitalented, resourceful.
When I started Heart racing, God-gracing Romance a few months back, I had no idea what to blog about. The market’s already saturated with book writing tips, including some great blogs with tremendous followings.
I’m a private person, so the thought of baring my soul to the world frightened me. My dear hubby encouraged me by saying, “Just write about what you enjoy.” So that’s what I’ve attempted to do with this blog. Book releases, thanks givings, devotions, some sundry thoughts. I kinda like things this way. What about you? Do you prefer a blog with a set schedule? Or do you enjoy reading eclectic blogs where you never know what to expect? Leave a comment and let me know what you think.
thanks givings…

~ Rachael Harrie’s
3rd Writers Platform-Building Campaign.
What a great way to connect with other people and make new friends. And the campaign hasn’t even started!
What about you?
What are your thanks givings today?
A little travel. A little romance. A lot of home.
I love vacations.
Dreaming about where to go, planning the trip, visiting a new area, trying out new foods~
“Ahem.” Dear hubby clears his throat.
I hit the delete key a few times.
OK. I’m a “home” kinda gal.
I love coming home more than the actual vacation itself.
This week we visited Atlanta and stayed at the Westin Peachtree.
Had a great view from the 24th floor ~ all that steel and glass on the building next to us. Certainly not the Carolina blue sky view from our deck.
The hotel boasted a Starbucks cafe, but it wasn’t nearly as blissful as waking up to my hubby’s perfect brew of cafe con leche.
And what is it with down pillows? Does anybody actually like them?
Definitely not as comfy as our fluffy pillows, and they didn’t tuck a Dove dark chocolate heart on my hubby’s pillow.
We ate at a great Irish Pub. To make up for the long wait, the waiter gave us a bag of homemade salt & vinegar chips.
Did I say it was a long wait? Great chips, but I woke up the next morning, bloated and swollen, three times my size. Kinda like this poor guy.
But you know what the hardest part of this trip was?
Leaving our baby behind.
Do you see why I’m a home kinda gal?
Next year’s agenda?
Denver.
Now that’s a place I could get excited about.
Hubby rolls his eyes.
I grin. OK.
I get more excited about coming home.
What about you?
