Happy 100th Post

Blogger has informed me that this past Friday I posted my 100th post on this blog. Not sure if that is a real milestone but it feels like one. What started as a mini-experiment has turned into something I really enjoy and I hope that those of you who read semi-regularly enjoy what I have to say too.
In that spirit, I am asking all of you readers (and I know you are there bec. I have a device that tracks my traffic on this site!!) to share a specific post that you particularly enjoyed and why. You can check the archives for inspiration.
I am even offering a prize for the most original comment- winner gets a hand knit small item of your choosing- think hat, scarf, bookmark, booties, etc. I know it's too hot to be thinking of hats and scarves but trust me, I knit cute things. Just ask my husband and kids. Now go ahead and post!

  1. Well with such an incentive who could resist. My favorite post was actually a recent one: My Oma. As R's sister I am priveleged to have the same Oma (works that way you know). R, you did a great job at painting an accurate picture of our Oma and her loving, vivacious personality. The only thing you forgot to mention is that she also taught us all how to swim :)
    To all those who know Oma, I think you will agree with my vote.

  3. I have only been following for a few months, but as a fellow blogger I can appreciate the desire for lurkers to come out of the closet!!! =) I can't even remember how I found you...a blog festival, maybe? I really love your style. I'm a Canadian doula. If you wanted to visit me back, you are welcome to check out my personal/family blog at www.vosefamily.blogspot.com, or visit the women/birth advocacy webpage I am a co-writer for www.mothersofchange.com! My extended family has a boring blog, too--you probably don't want to read that one!! Lol.
    My personal blog is not 'published' publicly because my husband is a police officer. It's not password protected, but you can't reach it by clicking on my profile. But you are welcome to visit if you like!

    My favorite post of yours was one that made me laugh--it was the one with all the 'stuff' getting tossed out of your apartment window unbeknownst to you! I have three boys aged 7, almost 6, and almost 2. I don't have that exact issue, but I have a million and one issues that resonate in the same spirit!! :D

    Take care!! It's good to unlurk!!

    p.s. I crochet, and am teaching myself to knit! I admire your work!!
    =)
