Friday Foodie Feature

Half day Friday! I can not wait to spend the weekend with my favorite mamas, my own, my sister, and my nana. And with my goddaughter as well! Will you be celebrating a mom or other special woman in your life this weekend?

Before I introduce this week’s featured foodie, I wanted to remind you about The Olive Press giveaway. The people at The Olive Press have been so great to me and are offering a $30 gift certificate to one of you, so make sure to check it out!

This week’s Friday Foodie Feature is Clarice from A Crumb Falls. I love the way she writes, and I think she sums her blog up best in her About section:

Food – Eating good for you foods, but not giving up the plain good foods

Exercise – Working out and finding little ways to be active everyday

Travel – I’d rather the travel be frequent and not moderate

Living Friendly – Encompasses all my ideas of being green, saving money, and doing things in a thoughtful way

All of these elements are right up my alley, and Clarice’s positive attitude and efforts toward a more balanced life make her blog a great place to visit. Enjoy this Friday Foodie Feature and if YOU would like to be featured, email me: traveleatlove (at) gmail.com. Happy Friday!

How long have you been blogging?
I have been blogging on and off since 2005 in various different spaces, and even before that I had a Xanga account (let’s hope I deleted that). Initially my blogs were just random musings based on anything that entered my mind. However, I have been seriously blogging with some frequency and direction(food, travel, fitness) since September 2009.

What is your favorite thing about blogging?
My favorite thing about blogging is all of the new ideas I’ve been introduced to and having a place to formulate my own thoughts. As an English teacher, I force my students to formulate their thoughts in writing. Personally, I do not always know what I am thinking until it is written down in a organized way, adding pictures just makes it even better. Least favorite? Sometimes I feel inferior to other bloggers like I should be posting three times or making funny v-logs, but I know that’s just not me.

What has been your most fun blog post to write?
My current favorite post that I recently wrote was about my trip to Denver. I enjoyed writing this post because I got to gush about travel, nature, food, and my friends.

Where do you see your blog this time next year?
I would love to have a consistent base of people who read my blog maybe 50 – 100. However, I really just hope to continue to have my own voice and enjoy the experience.

Is there anything else about your blogging experience you would like to share?
My blog is a mixture of food, fitness, travel, and my journey to become a centered person living a moderate lifestyle.
