New names
It's so exciting when I discover a new-to-me blog that I can add to my obscene bloglines list, but even better is finding a totally new blogger. Especially one who makes lovely things like Nutnbunny. We met through the kids cooking swap a while back when Tasha didn't have a blog, but she does now. She was asking for some advice as to how to get 'in the loop' so I thought I'd direct a few friendly natives her way.
Converting non-blogging swap partners is becoming a bit of a crusade. So Sarah (vintage button swap partner), c'mon in, the water's lovely. I cannot believe this girl is procrastinating about starting hers. She writes beautifully, judging from the e-mails we've exchanged and her taste and skill .... well just look at just some of the contents of my swap package from her. Thank you so much.
I think she's suffering from blog-title stage fright. Know the feeling well - I approached mine in true Management Consultant style, with a flipchart and brainstorming session with Andy and little Mark (who provided some very insightful truths, in the way only children can).
Failed to come up with anything much. Then 'domesticali' came to me on a long car journey as a tongue in cheek homage to Nigella Lawson, self styled domestic goddess. I love that she has made it hip to be a housewife - hate that word, much prefer domestic goddess. So, care to share how your blog came to be named?

Usually I am hopeless with names, but Mercy Lane just came to me one day and it encapsulates (in my own mind at least, probably no-one elses - this is not an unusual situation in my life) so much of what I believe about life that it just felt good. I usually cringe when I name stuff, but this time I haven't felt the need to change.
Didn't know you were going to get chapter and verse, did you?
I came to visit you over your name the first time, if I remember rightly. It's very cool.
My blog name comes from the facts that we live in an old schoolhouse and we live on a farm.
Every name I wanted was taken. I used colorfool when I was posting my scrap pages to Two Peas, so I just carried on with that one. Captivating tale, huh?
I'm not sure how I came up with my blog name. The "babe" part of my name is a definitel stretch, I think I was trying to humor myself.
He couldn't say it that way, he always said, "no appropriate behavior" and that's how it all started.
(Well, that and inappropriate behavior was taken.)
Your blog is lovely, great photographs.
