Jennie in Wonderland, http://www.jennieinwonderland.com

I couldn’t pin it down! It’s about my adventures living as an expat in the UK with my Welsh boyfriend, weight loss, healthy living, vegetarianism and wine. Lots of wine!

I love vegetables, poetry, anything sparkly, peanut butter straight from the jar, people with moxie and exercise! Oh, and I also like to go to the gym JUST to go in the sauna. Don’t pretend you’re any different

Oh, and good luck on your ride Caitlin!

Fun Fact: I played French horn in high school and LOVED it. So, I decided this week to join the community orchestra in my city. Should be fun!

I suppose my blog would be categorized under “life musings.” Luckily you had that as a choice because I wouldn’t know what to write otherwise!

Fun facts about me include: 1) I’m an identical twin (though I swear we look nothing alike); 2) I love my nieces and nephews more than anything in the world; 3) I’m frikkin’ hilarious so you should just read my blog already.

• I’M BRITISH! We may inferior peanut butters, and a lack of Wholefoods or Trader Joe’s…but we’re still worth reading about

My name is Erin and I blog at http://thebakingbride.com/

I originally started the blog because of my love of baking. I’ve found several recipes through blogs that I’d really like to give credit for. But as I started writing, I found that I wrote a lot about struggling with exercise and eating healthy. So, I’m hoping that through this blog, people will be inspired to make healthier decisions whether it is through exercise or not. I know that I eat some pretty terrible things but by being more mindful of what I’m eating and how I’m exercising, I will be healthier.

What started as a “we’re gonna get pregnant NOW” blog, turned into a “how is this possible? we’re having TROUBLE getting pregnant” blog, and is now an “I still can’t believe we’re pregnant” blog. Nearly 7 months pregnant and blogging all the way.

Something I tried recently? Oh, you know, getting stuck in Munich thanks to the volcano, living in Boston without clean drinking water… the usual.

My blog started off as a blog about weight loss and maintenance but following a diagnosis with Crohn’s, it has turned into a healthy living blog that follows my journey throughout life and not just weight maintenance.

About me: I am a mother of two boys. I am 27. I have Lupus and Hypothyroidism. I recently went vegetarian (mostly thanks to Caitlin ). I love my 2 dogs like they are my children.
