One of my favorite parts of blogging is when the online world collides with real life!
And I recently read a wonderful blog post about from the fantastic mommy blogger Mama hall, where she talked about being inspired by not one, but two of my other VERY FAVORITE bloggers – Texas Holly & Quirky Mama!
Having had the chance to meet all three of the bloggers in question in “real life” I can tell you that they are all the REAL DEAL. Awesome moms, kind women – and super creative!
So in honor of “Follow Friday” I’d like to second mamahall’s endorsement, and add her in! All three of these bloggers are GREAT reads!!
Mama hall writes both thoughtful and practical posts, she will make you smile and feel grateful for the small things in life… she’s a true lady.
TexasHolly will make you laugh, she will make you REALLY laugh. She is perhaps the sweetest nutcase on the web. She is also part of the brain trust that brought us Business to Bloggers! She can hook you up!
Quirky Mama will help you come up with crafts and recipes that educate and entertain your kids. She will give you light bulb moments!And she is also one of the moderators with me at the Mom Loop Blog Community! Have you visited yet?
Check these wonderful women out. Seriously. You’ll thank me.

And if you check out the post where all three of these fabulous bloggers collided– you’ll get to see some lovely pictures and recipe for homemade cheese crackers!
They are making me hungry looking at them- and I may need to try them out now!
YAY FOR MEETING WONDERFUL BLOGGERS!
About Shannon SchmidShannon traded in her sensible NYC TV producer shoes (they were best for taking the subway), for a pair of Texas Cowboy boots when she married her best friend! He's at fault for making this Yankee a Texan! Shannon writes about all things that make a house a home. Her chief blogging inspiration is being the proud & slightly neurotic mom of a preschool age daughter.
You can find Shannon on Facebook, Pinterest, Instagram and her new favorite place to hang out, Google+.
It’s always great to see the face with the name. Now I’m about to go check out these ladies you recommended that you got a chance to meet. Plus I wanna try out that cheese cracker recipe, it looks great! Oh yeah, I’m visiting from Mom Loop Follow. 🙂

Hello Shannon,
Glad to stop by again for Mom Loop Comment Follow Day (a mouthful that one!). Thanks for recommending 3 more excellent bloggers. The 31DBBB has been rich with new connections and writing homes to visit. I am grateful for the experience…
Lucky you on the BlogHer conference. I considered it late in the games and was wait-listed. Aah, next year then!
Have a great weekend!
