happy anniversary to me

It’s hard to believe, but Wednesday June 20, 2007 marks my first anniversary of blogging.

To celebrate the 90 some-odd posts on my life (in general and specific), my family, my friends, my diabetes, my obsession with food and all things tasty, and my overall conviction to have some laughs while still upright, I’d like to invite you all, dear readers, to post some comments.

I know, I know, you don’t really want to post anything because you’re enjoying your anonymity while being a voyeur into my life. But what about if I promise you a chance for some nifty prizes? Or at least an opportunity to be read by tens of people (who can resist that?) Or you could see it as a chance to use up that vast resource of puns you have at your ready disposal. Or just an avenue for congratulating me on sticking to something for a whole year (did I mention I get bored easily?)

The reasons are countless and my gratitude would be fathomless. So please, take a moment to post a nifty little comment. I so want to hear from you.

    Rats, I guess I can’t just be a lurker anymore. Congrats on the one year anniversary, and best wishes for year number two! I’m sure your family will give you many interesting topics to cover over the next twelve months! Keep up the great work!

    Congratulations on the anniversary Ellen. I love the way you taking everything in stride and your humour brings a smile to my face - loved the hair story!

    Congrats on your one year, and thanks for expanding my untechno brain (is that a word?). Never knew what a blog was (Meg is cringing), but think it’s a super cool way to think out loud! Never could have one myself - some things are better kept within (now people think i’m wacko as well as a ditz!)

    Did I mention I was also totally out of the blog-loop until I started my own? I still feel hopelessly “untechno” myself.

    A big thank you to my brother for starting me on this whole adventure in the first place, and of course to my hubby for his on-site maintenance of both me and the computer.

    Hey Ellen,
    Congratulations on the anniversary! What a great way to vent….er, I mean ‘express yourself’. Keep at it!

    Yahoo! Congrats on your 1st anniversary Ellen! Is there a party to go with it too? I’m all about the
    celebration! I’ve loved taking a peek into your world!
    I look forward to many more peeks where I know I’ll be comforted by your funny stories & awesome recipes!
    Keep it up! :) BJ

    Congrats on the 1st anniversary, Ellen!
    I also love reading your ’sister’ blogs (restaurants & cookbooks) as much as this main one.
    You and your blogs are motivating me to post on my own blogs more often… and I thank you for that ;)
    Anyhoo, Happy Anniversary and many more!!!

    Hey, I didn’t even know that you had a blog (I had to ask my husband what this was all about since I am so behind the times with computer things). Read most of your previous blogs and thought they were great and funny. Congratulations on your first anniversary. I’ve really enjoyed your wonderful insights into the whole “diabetes” thing and being a “mom”. Looking forward to reading more.

    Gail, you’re such a smart a**. I admire that in a person.
