Have you checked out GoogleReader?

I recommend the one my family uses for that purpose - Live Journal. Every member of your family can become a member. As a member, you can make a list of who your "friends" are, and by doing that, you control who sees your posts. When you create a post, you can set the level of access to be private (you're the only one who can read it) your friends can read it, or the whole world can read it.I used to blog there, and you can look for the user "lugnuts" on LJ and see some of my stuff there. My family login is a different name, though. My brother, The Rocket Scientist, blogs there pretty much to the world, but my posts are all limited to my family.Check it out - I think it's what you're looking for. (Click on Live Journal above or here, it's a link.)

I found my old blog on Live Journal if you want to take a look at it.My bother, The Rocket Scientist, blogs on Live Journal as BJBass. Rhymes with class, or lack of.

I have a kids blog - http://peapodnpeanut.blogspot.com/. I used to have one for knitting but, I deleted it. However, it was great to see the daily progress of a project.

My last entry as September, 2006. I better start blogging again.

Your kids are sooooooo cute! Do you live in a log cabin? The wood is beautiful! (Sorry, I am so nosey when it comes to other people's homes...I love to see!)

Joelen & Celeste, I have been wanting to do a food blog forever!!!
You have now inspired me!
I LOVE taking pics, and especially of my creations!
I have a blog also, basically on my kids happening, but sometimes in life in general.
It is http://herrerababies.blogspot.com/

Also, have you guys ever heard of GoogleReader?
It is the coolest thing that I just found.
You add all of your friends blogs onto it and whenever you log in, it shows you all of the new journal entries.
So you don't have to go to each on seperatly.
I LOVE it!!!

Yes - I use googlereader as well. I also suggest putting your blog on google analytics so you can keep stats on how many times your blog is viewed, who views them, etc.

Joelen, I had to go eat after seeing all the pix on your blog .

Do you provide all the recipes? I was droolin over the chocolate cheesecake stuffed strawberries!

I do my best to provide recipes... but if there is something you'd like a recipe for that isn't listed, please let me know!

Here is my recipe for the white chocolate cheesecake stuffed strawberries:

INGREDIENTS:
Large fresh whole strawberries
1 brick cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup confectioners' sugar
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 sm pkg instant vanilla pudding
1/4 cup melted white chocolate wafers
milk - enough to thin if filling is too thick

Cut a thin slice from the stem end of each strawberry, allowing the berries to stand upright on flattened end. Place berries, cut side down, on a serving platter. Cut each berry carefully into 4 wedges, cutting almost to, but not through, bottoms.

Fan wedges just slightly, taking care not to break; set berries aside.

In a mixing bowl, beat together the cream cheese, confectioners' sugar, and vanilla extract until light and fluffy.

Gently fold in pudding mix.

Melt white chocolate wafers in the microwave and add to the cream cheese pudding mixture.

Add milk if its too thick - consistency should be slightly thick like cheesecake.

Using a ziploc bag w/the corner snipped off or decorating bag with decorative tip, fill the strawberries.

Cover and chill until ready to serve.

Joelen,

I love your blog! After 20 years in uniform, I find getting to focus on the kitchen and friends is a great combination. (Loved the Army, but I wasn't paid to be nice and friendly ) What you are doing is so where I want to be!

kris

Thanks so much for checking it out!

It's so much easier to blog about food than life.... lol If you skip a few days, weeks, months, you don't have to worry about "being behind" in posting.... LOL

I have the blogs I read on my sub list and it shows me when there is an update, and then I go read it.... lol

spaces (from MSN) has a statistics page where I can see how many views the page has had, and the origination of the view. And I really like the layout, and all the options that are available.....
