Blogs:

Metropolitan Mama- Stephanie’s blog mostly centers around parenting and family, but it is very inspiring for anyone, even a newlywed with no children like me.  She is a sweet woman with a sincere personality and message, and I would recommend her blog to anyone.

Nason’s Daily Photo- This is my husband’s photography blog, where he has committed to post ‘one unique picture every day.’  He loves photography and takes beautiful pictures.  I think it fits well with his mechanical genius and meticulous nature.

Yearbook- Sarah is a friend of mine, and is an awesome teacher and wonderful woman.  Her blog mainly focuses on life, goals, teaching and relationships, and I think it is always a joy to read.

The Bloggess- Jenny’s blog rarely fails to make me laugh.  Her oddball sense of humor and quirky daily adventures are always entertaining to read about.  She is a hilarious, strange woman who I can relate to in many ways.

Enlightened Cooking- I discovered Camille’s blog when I was looking for a recipe for Homemade Lara Bars.  What I found (in addition to a great recipe) was a blog that expressed my views on food-it should be fresh and healthy and delicious!  I love her recipes and creativity, and her honesty about what goes on in her kitchen.  Always a delight!

Websites:

Fertility Friend- I do not use the pill, the patch, or anything hormonal for birth control.  Instead, I track my Basal Body Temperature (BBT) and record the changes to know where I am in my cycle.  While this may seem silly to some, it has actually proven highly accurate in the past year.  I use this site to graphically chart my BBT so I can see any changes more clearly.

Allrecipes- This is the best cooking website I’ve found so far…allrecipes has a huge variety of recipes, as well as an option to search by ingredient (which is nice if you have chicken and cumin and need some inspiration) and a big articles section (I learned how to properly store asparagus here).  Overall, a fine website.
