This week’s links post is going to be just a tad different than the normal friday finds & favs. I’ve been reading a ton of new blogs over the past several months and so I’m sharing the love. There is no way for me to share all of them because my blogroll has gotten somewhat out of hand. If you’d like some more suggested reads in a certain category…just ask 😉
