Starbucks Sunday: Social Sunday v.1

 

Things I love today:
-The Anthropologie giveaway on my blog
-The beautiful temperature outside
-Being able to sit on my porch and enjoy the slow Sunday morning
-Coffee, especially from a Keurig
-Comfortable beds
-The Bears kicking bum yesterday (sic 'em!)
-Fun Sunday link-ups! Linking up with Neely and Ashley for Sunday Social.

How did you come up with your blog name?
I don't actually remember...it used to be "Sar's in Texas" in a pun off "She's in Texas (and I'm Insane)" by Tumbledown, but when it became more about my life in general and less about how I had moved to Texas, it changed. I thought about Gratitude Attitude for a while, but I felt like [life of love] just fit me a little better (plus, I can have a gratitude attitude while living a life of love)!

What is your favorite thing about blogging?
I feel like people always say the friendships, but I'm gonna have to agree! I love the blogging community, and how one blog post or tweet from a blogger can automatically make me fall in friendship love. Sarah and I Skype frequently (we're practically sisters) and Whitney's tweets are my favorite!

What's one thing you've discovered because of blogging that you can't live without?
Either e.l.f. face primer (it's amazing, although the pump sucks) or Erin Condren's life planner. I haven't actually bought an EC planner yet (because when I first found out about them last year, I had just bought a planner I loved) but I cannot wait to buy one of the new 2012 life planners

Facebook or Twitter?
Twitter. Plus I don't have a Facebook, so you know...Twitter. ;) 

If one celebrity read your blog, who would you want it to be?
I have no idea. I feel like I would have nothing in common with a celebrity because my lifestyle would be so drastically different (guys, I live in Waco). But, if I had to pick the celebrity who I think we'd get along the best, I'd go with Emma Stone.

What is something you want people to know about your blog?
I feel like my blog is genuine: I don't have to pretend to be someone I'm not, I don't have to write when I don't want to, and I can just be me. I love blogging and the friends I've made through this forum, but I always try to stay true to myself instead of gaining followers for the sake of having followers (it still weirds me out that 300+ of y'all read my blog, in the most awesome way!).

Happy Sunday friends! Hope to see your post linked up, too!

Ha! Love that we both said Erin Condren planner.

Lol @ your Waco comment. Girl, I'm in Temple.

I agree with your reasons for blogging. It's just because you want to, not for the follower count, but for you in general. :)

Love your linkup. I might just have to do it too! :)

Georgina said...

I found your blog on the link up and decided to follow. I love your voice - it does come through incredibly genuine.

Definitely entering your giveaway and checking out the EC life planner :)

Yay for Emma Stone! *twin* I have the EC planner and love it. But probably not $50+ love it. I find myself using my phone and iPad calendars more often.

Kristin said...

I discovered Erin Condren through blogging too and, though I completely splurged on the planner, it's just plain adorable :)

Katie said...

I haven't tried elf's primer, but all of their products I've tried are great. And definitely at the right price! :) Girl, you're going to love the EC planners!!

Allison said...

I love my Keurig too. We don't even own a coffee pot! This is the first I've heard of the Sunday Social. I'll try to link up next week!

So proud of you for surviving wedding season!

I love that you don't have a Facebook. I think about shutting mine down all the time, but I never actually do it. Love Twitter, though!
