{LoveFeast :: connecting with other bloggers}

August 21, 2010 · 9 Comments

Tuesday night I hopped in the car with Allison of OMyFamily and we drove to Prior Lake, MN to meet up with dozens of other fabulous bloggers! The event was LoveFeast Table, hosted by Chris Ann & Kristin, and it was amazing and fun and encouraging to attend.

Kristin is on the left with the sassy black shoes, Camille is in pink in the center {the event was hosted at her antique shop}, and Chris Ann is on the right in the floral dress {brown hair}. OK, writing that made me feel like I was in middle school giving a presentation. Sorry! I just wanted to introduce the women we spent the evening with, because they are fun!!!

Last Saturday I meet up with some of my Minneapolis blog pals {Johanna, Allison, Kelly and Mela} and I got to see them ALL again at LoveFeast. Yayyy!

So Tuesday night we had fun drinks, ate a yummy salad, enjoyed buttery croissants, and licked our plates clean of peach cobbler {complete with whipped cream. And chocolate dipped strawberries. Thankyouverymuch.} And we had hand massages courtesy of Aveda. And received swag bags… OHHH yes, so much fun :]

Of course we all chatted, floating around here & there, meeting new people and happily squeezing new friends with our greeting.

Hours later, when it was time to go home, I couldn’t stop yawning… I wanted to stay & chat more, but if we all went home then we could hang out again, and that was something to be very excited over :]

Look at the inside of Camille’s shop:

Darling, right? And look at this little ceramic rooster I bought:

Have you ever been to a blog meet-up? They are super easy to arrange — you can mention on your blog you’re going to host one OR use Twitter… social media is great for meeting new friends. Or for secretly gawking at a blogger you adore. Just sayin’.

    Hope your move is going a bit more smoothly. And that you are loving your new digs. And that you plan another get together soon so I am sit next to you and pet your arm or something stalkerish like that.

    ;)

    Blessings-
    Amanda
