My First Guest Post, Featured Writers And A Homemade Bread Recipe Too!

There are a handful of bloggers who I write to (through email mostly) on a weekly or monthly basis.  Some I have even spoken with on the phone.  A few of us have become friends, much more than just an anonymous person who comments on a post.  I like having these wonderful people in my life and I feel fortunate that we can share things about our families, hobbies and more. 

One of those teriffic blogger buddies is Anne from Annie Bakes.  I write to her when I try new recipes or when I'm looking for ideas on things to make.  Recently I told her how I tried making my first ever homemade wheat bread.  Anne asked me to share the experience with her in the form of a guest post on her site. 

I was so honored!  How could I say no?  Nobody has asked me to be a guest writer before.  Is this what winning an Academy award feels like? 





So please jump over to Annie Bakes right now to read my featured guest post.  You'll gain my homemade bread recipe and see several photos of how the process unfolded.  While you're there, be sure to check out some of Anne's great family recipes!  You won't be disappointed! 

And if you happen to be visiting for the first time today from Anne's wonderful site, WELCOME!  Thank you for checking me out.  I mean that in a non-sexual, looking at my ass kind of way too.  ;-)  I have posted several recipes on this blog but not every day in the same way that Anne does on her site.  However, please check out a few of my favorite ones --

Sweet Red Pepper Relish
Carrot Cinnamon Bread
Man's Italian Meat Pie
Crawfish Etoufee and Lazy Light Lasagna

This guest post of mine got me thinking.....  why haven't I ever asked any of my friends to do a guest spot on this site?  My blogger pals are great writers and they have more artistic flare than me.  They'd make a great addition to this blog.  In the past, I've only asked my parents to be guest writers.  But now I think that I should consider having more folks showcase their talent.  After all, I know poets, writers, travel experts, craftmakers and more.  I'm lucky to know some very skilled individuals. I suppose I should stop hogging them all to myself!  ;-)

If you are a regular reader and follower of this site, tell me who you'd like to hear from?  Or would YOU like to be a guest writer on this site?  If so, please leave me a message in the comments.  Or you can email me directly at littlebit.mandy@gmail.com.

Thank you for being a part of my life, a part of this site and for reading about my adventures!  I would still be here writing in this online diary even if you weren't around.  But having you sit with me during the ride enchances the rollercoaster fun!   Thanks for bringing along the funnel cake so we can both puke at the same time.  Cheers!
