I've been putting off this semi-regular Sweet Stuff link post. I find they are a lot of work to pull together and I'm not sure how helpful they are for readers. I'm thinking of ways to make linking to blogs both fun for me to write and interesting and relevant for people to read.
If you want to know what I recommend for reading on the net you can see my list of Internet Reads on FIMBY's front page. I update this list daily and I although I know doing things this way is hopelessly out of date, what with smart phones and twitter and everything, I just can't bring myself to join that party.
So this time around instead of linking to particular posts or articles I'm sharing thirteen of FIMBY's favorite blogs (in no particular order).
My only fear in writing a post like this is that I have no doubt left someone out who feels they deserved to be mentioned. My apologies for not including every blog I read and comment at.
By the way, that's my homemade raspberry ice "cream" pictured at the top. It was even more delicious than it looks. The recipe can be found in the Vice Cream cookbook.
What are your favorite blogs to read? Please leave links in the comments.
Great list Renee. I look forward to checking out some of the "new to me" blogs.
Wow, I feel doubly honored to be included as the only non mommy blogger on the list -- thanks! You have great synopses, by the way. I've tried to do a few roundup posts before, but I always lose patience and then ... er.. don't.
1) That homemade ice cream made me soooo insanely wish I lived near you so I could have some while chatting. Yum!
2) Thanks for including me. I so enjoy being a part of this blogging community.
3) I hear you about the link love posts. I rarely do them b/c I find they take up a lot of time. I do however have a ton of great links book marked and keep saying I'm due for one.
thank you so much renee!
i was thinking about you last night when i was writing today's blog post (lots of intense emotion...trying to strike the balance of being honest and sharing openly without over-sharing) and then woke up to find this -- such fun serendipity!
love to you...

Thinking about me while writing a post. Hum... I guess that's a good thing?? I actually think a lot about my blogging friends when writing posts.
Thank you Renee! I guess I should really add a little note somewhere explaining what "fuoriborgo" means:) I find these posts (which unfortunately are quite rare) very interesting, as I always find good blogs that are new to me. Thank you for taking the time to put together this list. Among the blogs I always read, and with regular posting dates are: http://www.strocel.com/ - smart and thought provoking http://aervilhacorderosa.com/ - crafter and artist with an interest for traditions, actively engaged in the life of her city, Lisbon (she managed to stop the closing of the local folk museum) http://vialiivia.blogspot.com/ - beautiful and interesting photography and blogging style oh, dear ... and so many more! I'll check out all the blogs you suggest.
Thank you Francesca for taking the time to add your favorites. I recently discovered stocel as well and am enjoying it.
So... what does fuoriborgo mean??
Thanks Renee! I'm honored to be counted among such awesome blogs. :)
Great list, Renee! I frequent almost all of them, but there are a few new-to-me to check out. I love blog lists by like minded folks! :)
The only one I would definitely add in is http://www.soulemama.com/. 4 beautiful homeschooled kiddos, natural and intentional living in Maine, wholesome food inspiration...Amanda shares space with you at the top of my "crafty mama" blog list! :)
You didn't include me on your list! My feelings are SO hurt! lol Just kidding! I do enjoy lists like this though. You never know where they'll take you!
Wow! What an honor to come home to! Thank you so much for including me. What love. You know I feel the same, Renee. And I agree with most of those blogs, although a couple are new (or newish) to me! Nicola
Aw shucks, it's so sweet of you to mention Old Recipe. I'm loving not blogging these days, and am not sure I'll go back to it (with a two year old and another on the way, I just have other passions to indulge in my ever so precious time to myself...) but I would be absolutely devastated if MY favorite bloggers stopped writing. So don't get any ideas! XOKyce
no worries. I'm here for a while. But I will be sad (though understanding in your life situation) if you decide to call it quits.
I like and use your "internet reads" column; keep it coming :)
When I visit your blog I am always more amazed by your photography. Love this one of the raspberries.
Thank you for including me in this list. I am addicted to FuoriBorgo. It's nice to be introduced to some new lovely blogs.
