So I'm sitting here eating handfuls of dry pumpkin spice Cheerios out of a cool whip bowl then throwing a handful on the floor for our dog Daisy to eat, then a handful for me, another for Daisy. Who does that? Anyway short of twirling my hair while deep in thought, I came to the revelation "crap, I got nuttin honey for Monday posts in September!" What's a blog lovin' novice writer to do? The only logical thing: brainstorm like mad and keep shoving in those Cheerios.
I just know all you writers have been there. It seems like this Summer there was a huge ole collaborative "I'm kinda over my blog right now, I got nothing" mentality all over the blog-a-sphere. Busy lives, summer breezes and vacations kept the blogs on the back burner.
However, it's Fall season now whether Mother Nature or the calendar says it is, so that means new ideas, fresh takes, renewed spirits. And if you're still stumped, I've come up with a tidy lil list of ideas for ya. Some are ones from I've written in the past and others are ones I came up with for possible future material. If it's an example of a post I've done, I've linked that up. Hope some of you find writer's block inspo from it.

Great list - am definitely digging some of these ideas. I was just looking at your most popular posts and noticed the top 3 are recipes! I guess I'm always drawn to your fashion posts - too funny. Anyway, need to make sure I drop by your blog at least once a week - love your style. And I absolutely LOVED the pleated cold shoulder blush sweater and forgot to leave a comment.
