Five Things (Old School Blogging)

Monday is over already! One day closer to yet another weekend, and this week will be busy, once again. My weekend was not too exciting, just running some errands, and making blackberry jam with Lily, after sharing a favorite Washingtonian (or Northwest?) past time with my big girl: berry picking (more about that later!). And of course a lot of relaxing on a rainy Sunday.

In order to not bore you to death, here's a little fun blogging game, which, rumor has it, originated from the early blogging community. The wonderful Erin at Searching for Sanity tagged me in this game, and here I go:

I take Jen's approach here: there are way too many good blogs out there to just tag 5, so I tag everyone! If you'd like, please take part in this fun game.


Thank you again for tagging me, Erin! I loved taking part in this fun game!!
