I like the idea of Inspiration Monday.
Monday’s often get the short end of the stick
But they are fraught with potential!

2) Share your creative projects with us! You’re welcome to link up your Arts & Crafts projects – your Recipes – your DIY, Home Décor and Organizational Ideas – your original Writing, Music & Photography – you get the idea!
3) Visit the participants – share some comment love – let them know what’s inspired you!

Awesome – so glad you’ve joined us, Elizabeth, that recipe rocks! 🙂
Hello Ramona and friends,
I’m so glad I finally made it on time — and I’d like to say once more how much I like being among all you creative bloggers!
Oh, one more thing — it seems I was a little hasty, and I failed to add my domain extension on my first attempt, that is #69. Would you be kind enough to delete the link, Ramona? The correct, working link is #70. Thank you so much!
