Now, I am One!

January 8th is the first anniversary of my semi-illustrious blogging career. Style Court and Peak of Chic were the first blogs I really read, and then I found All The Best, another American abroad. Kitchenography was right up there, too and really got me hooked on the whole thing.

In honour of my first anniversary and to thank you wonderful readers, I have a copy of the last issue of House & Garden to give away. Amazingly, it was one of my recent Book Thing finds. Obviously, someone didn't think was a treasure! This is the issue that features the amazing house of Aerin Lauder Zinterhoffer.
I'd love it if you'd let me know what you would like me to write more about and I will endeavour to do so. This isn't a quiz, and the winner will be picked at random.

Thanks again for reading and commenting. I truly appreciate it!

  14. I just entered into the world of blogging myself and discovered yours through a link on the Baltimore Architecture Foundation site, where my new blog is also listed. I love your ville de porc label. It's great to see design-focused blogs coming out of B-More.Keep up the good work!

  16. Here's another vote for keeping up the comments about Baltimore. It's a seriously underrated city and there are some wonderful design/arts/culinary things from there. It's a way to give your blog a distinctive voice, rather than just writing about the latest issue of Domino magazine or suchlike.

  18. Wow, congrats on a year of blogging! I don't need the magazine, but just keep writing what you're writing. Hopefully you'll (and I'll, for that matter) be able to get out to one of these bloggy functions sometime this year.
