Day 31: The finish line! This has been a great experience for me in both inspiring me to write and to grow my blog. http://www.lonehomeranger.com/2012/01/finish-line....

I finally crossed the finish line on attempt #4! Whew! What a feeling of accomplishment and relief too. February is going to find me focusing on my art blog and projects that are simmering on the creative back burner, but I'll be back in March! Congratulations to all of you who made it across the finish line with me!

Chinese tea eggs are a common snack, found in street-side stalls, convenient stores, and home kitchens all over Asia. They are a popular and economical snack, eaten warm or cold, at a table, or on the go. They are especially popular, here in America, and abroad, during the Chinese New Year celebration, signifying wealth, prosperity, and fertility.

Make your own! These are so easy, easy, easy and so good that we ate the entire batch in one sitting. {new post}

Last post in January! I did 25 out of 31....I could've done every day, and even then some. Kind of addicted to blogging now!

To finish out my January series featuring my watercolors, some smaller, creepier ones. And also thinking about what to do when you see something that makes you wish you would've thought of it first (happens to me ALL THE TIME!).

See you in February, I hope!

Posting daily on the blog, but not always having the extra minute or two it takes to repost here or even link here. So, here's yesterday's link today--and since it's about getting ahead, keeping up, and falling behind, it's especially appropriate:

alphabetsalad I want to pull back on the weekends. Want to write a novel plus I need to do some back end blog stuff and do guest posts on other blogs, not posting those two days makes a diff. The thing is, I love NaBloPoMo and the community so I'm not sure. I'm thinking I could just pop over and blog hop with y'all even if I'm not posting my link.

MauiShopGirlalphabetsalad I'm thinking weekends, this month, are for quick tips or pics--both prescheduled. I've done Sunday that was this month. We all deserve, and should take, a break from Social Networking once in a while, I think.
