Happy Birthday Blog!

birthday-cake

I’ve seen other blogs take the first line from the first post of the month and highlight it in an anniversary post. I just compiled a list like this but unfortunately I do not find it very interesting. I think I may have to improve my first lines… Or perhaps I should have tried the last line of each entry.

Here it is anyhow for your reading pleasure.

March 2009: Welcome, dear reader, to my simple life.

April: Ben Franklin said that the only things certain in life were death and taxes.

May: What makes us neighbours? A person who lives near another?

June: The Giant Pumpkin seeds from Laura-Jane have sprouted.

July: We are getting ready to go on holidays and what do I spend my time doing? Plucking my eyebrows.

August: I went for a girl’s weekend this weekend.

September: So, we bought a boat.

October: There is a flock of sheep on this farm we are caretaking.

November: My Grandpa is 86 and learning how to make soup from scratch.

December: On the First day of Advent, My true love gave to me, Double Pointed Knitting Needles!!!!

January: I know that after New Years I’m always trying to figure out how to properly use our Champagne splurge left-overs.

February: I am pleased to report that I checked on my last hive yesterday, the one that is far afield, and it is doing well.

March 2010: Just thought I’d share moments from my good day with you.

So, after blogging for a year, and skimming through some of my past articles, perhaps there is a little more material on the ever-expanding internet about beekeeping, about baking, about failed sewing attempts, and about attempting a more rural life. And maybe that’s enough. Maybe there doesn’t need to be more. What do you think readers? Is a  year enough? Is there more to be told?

Should I change my focus?

I’d love to have whatever feedback you would like to give.

Thanks ahead of time as I consider what direction I should take this blog or if I shall leave it at full-stop.
