I can't believe I was lucky enough to jag the amazing JoLyn as a partner in Team Up Thursday. Not only is she an amazing photographer with an eye for beauty but she is a mover and shaker! After a cool post reminiscent of a blog carnival, she has decided to put together a weekly Blog Cafe. The idea is that a variety of bloggers will host the cafe and decide upon on the 'venue', 'food' and topic of conversation. The first post will be at 12.01 on Monday wherever the host is in the world. The attendees will call by whenever it's convenient and have their cup of coffee and chat then. :-) Hopefully people will call by more than once and the conversation will bounce back and forwards.
Check out this post to see JoLyn's much more emotive explanation and also a few basic rules of blog etiquette.
I'm hoping to host the cafe in the next few months so stay tuned and I hope a few of you will join in and perhaps meet some kindred spirits or be challenged in some (positive) way.
Cos hey, there's nothing we like better than a chat right?
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Which reminds me of a conversation I had with my mother and Himself recently.
Someone had mentioned that the women in our family are all good talkers. Whilst resembling that remark I was also quick to point out that I can sit for hours in the same room as Himself and never utter a word. I am very proud of the way I am able to let my husband 'get on with' his work and don't feel the need to talk at him constantly.
"Yes well, that's only because you're talking to the entire WORLD on your blog and facebook!!!!" Himself was quick to point out.
Hmmmmmmmmm. He may have a point there :-D

Thanks for spreading the word, Ariz! It's going to be so fun!
Love your convo with Himself and your mum. It's a good thing we have our blogs--the men in our lives would never get a word in edgewise!
Oh--and now I've got to go do something about "breakfast"...
Nice plug. I'm so excited for Mondays now. and I'm really happy that you want to join in. Will you be host #4 on the first Mon. in May? We'll get you right on that schedule.
