Food from Italy and Decorating for Valentine’s Day

My blogging friend Pree and I recently decided to do a food swap and it was so much fun! I’ve been following her in the blog world for several years and always love keeping up with her life, especially since she has been living in Italy!

She was missing some American food and I was eager to try all things Italian. She sent along Pan de Stelle spread, cereal bars, Kinder chocolate, nougat, and all sorts of goodies. I had to fight with Jimmy and Sadie to try the Kinder chocolate 😜

Blogging and friends

I totally consider everyone who reads and comments on my blog to be my friend. Is that weird/creepy?! If I see/hear something that reminds me of a fellow blogging friend I’m like “My blogging friend ______ does/cooks/says that”  So basically I love you all.

But I want to talk about something different today. I want to discuss friends outside of the blogging realm. Unless i’m crazy, I feel like SO many bloggers never mention their friends and it totally makes me sad because friends make life better.

Sometimes I feel as if I only hear about bloggers working out and cooking. (But maybe that is the basis of their blog and they don’t want to mention friends?) In my eyes, working out and cooking are awesome, but friendships are so important as well.

I spent some time with my best friend last night and it felt so good to laugh. Like really hard. I thought i’d do a little tribute picture post to my bestie, Maddy!

How do you feel about bloggers and “real” friends? (Am I the only one who notices this?!)

Tell me something about your best friend 🙂
