Sites I L-O-V-E.

I'm a girl obsessed with my Google reader. I keep adding new sites, favoriting things I want to get back to, e-mailing links to friends. In between meeting you guys (virtually as it may be), getting referrals from friends, finding cool links on blogs I like, it's just ... well, awesome!

So, I thought I'd take a few minutes and pass along links to some of my most-loved blogs. It's by no means inclusive. Some are names you've heard of (The Pioneer Woman, anyone?) and some might be new. But take a few minutes and click on over. And maybe you'll add some to your reader, too. You can thank me later.

Overheard in the Newsroom: Journalists are dark. But damn, if this isn't The Funniest Shit Ever.

The Pioneer Woman: Five words to sum up this gem: Food Porn With Hot Cowboys. I'll add a sixth word: swoon.

Kind Over Matter: Like Prozac for your soul. With happy pictures.

Zooborns: I have spent entirely too much time cooing at pictures of baby animals and trying to figure out which one best personifies me.

Whip Up and U Create: Such great crafttacular round ups.

Modge Podge Rocks: Because sometimes you just feel compelled to glue shit.

Bakerella, My Boyfriend Dated a Chef, & Smitten Kitchen: OMG. Cake.

Oh Fransson & Film in the Fridge: I drool over their quilts and covet their fabric stashes.

Operation Beautiful: Because we are! But sometimes, we need strangers to remind us.

Latitude: My former co-worker helped start a newspaper in Montana. He makes me want to R-U-N-N-O-F-T to the mountains because of his pictures.

The Modern Gal: I'd be remiss if I didn't give this lady a shout out. She's a real life bestie and inspired me to start this. She also kicks ass in a variety of major ways.
