    I have been reading your blog since Early 2006,I think I found you on twopeas, damn that was a long time ago, LOL What I love most about your blog is THAT YOU KEEP IT REAL, and ilove all the recipes, and seeing what you have sewn or knit! LOL

  • Kora/ 28.11.2010Reply

    I found your blog earlier this year through Pattern Review. You had sewn something that I wanted to sew. I don’t remember what it was now but I’m glad I found your blog.

    Hi Happy Anniversary I have been reading your blog for about three years and have been enjoying it I keep telling myself i am going to start a blog well I did have to start. But it was not good so I am going to start all over again I hope to accomplish this in 2011 I really enjoy your blog since reading your blog I have picked up photography and knitting and stopped watching a LOT of TV I found you on Pattern review

  • sundaze/ 28.11.2010Reply

    I’ve been reading for a couple of years now. I somehow “discovered” you while reading Erica B.’s blog. I love that you express your creativity in myriad ways and enjoy seeing your various finished projects.

  • K-Line/ 28.11.2010Reply

    Congrats! I can’t remember how long I’ve been reading this blog. All time blends. But I look forward to reading it for another 5 years!

  • Susan C/ 28.11.2010Reply

    Love you’re blog. Been lurking for a year, maybe 2? Probably found you through Erica B or PatternReview. Like your hump day ramblings. Am always interested in what you’re sewing or knitting. Congrats on your 5-year anniversary. Susan C

  • Carla/ 28.11.2010Reply

    Since February 2008 when I gave in to my desire to sew. And I stay because you are the funny and mad talented oh and quite genuine,

  • Faye Lewis/ 28.11.2010Reply

    Can’t remember exactly when I found you. I know I found Carolyn (Sewing Fanatic) and Erica’s (DIY), and your’s was the third one of interest that I found. One thing about blogging and reading blogs of others, is that you actually begin to feel somewhat close to other writers. You get to know their families, likes and dislikes, besides learning about what interests them – like sewing. I think I’ll soon have my 4th blogiversary in February so it will soon be 4 years that I’ve been reading here. You are a “Jacqueline” of many trades, and have amazed me with your talents, and humored me with your candid expressions. MORE RECIPIES, even though this is a sewing blog. More peeks into your sewing area, and other than than just keep right on blogging.

  • Doris/ 28.11.2010Reply

    I have been reading your blog for 1 ½ years. I found your blog when I started looking for sewing blogs. What I like most about your blog is that you not only sew, but you knit, make jewelry, cook and bake, and most of all, YOU ENJOY LIFE. You are one of my favorite blog. You have shared your life with not only your family and friends but with the world. Thanks so much. Happy 5th Blogiversary!

  • This One Woman/ 28.11.2010Reply

    I found your blog either through you commenting on a blog of mine or one of your comments on someone else blog. You are my crafting shero girl. I love to see the things you make because they are so beautiful.

  • Elaray/ 28.11.2010Reply

    Congrats! I don’t even know how long I’ve been reading your blog! I remember pictures of your beautiful children when they were much younger, so it’s been a while! I probably found it through Erica B’s blog, but I can’t remember that either! I just know I enjoy it and I hope you keep it up!

  • Netta Boo/ 28.11.2010Reply

    Adrienne, Congratulations and Happy Anniversary! I love your blog. I’ve been reading your blog for 2 1/2 years. I clearly lurked for one of those years before ever leaving a comment. I found you through one of your comments on Tearsa’s ole That’s Sew live and on Patrice’s first blog (I miss her terribly BTW) YOU KEEP IT REAL ON ALL LEVELS- the good, the bad, and the ugly. You are such an inspiration and a joy to be associated with. Keep Creating and LOVING life.

  • Marcia/ 28.11.2010Reply

    Congrats on you Blog-aversary . . . . I stumbled upon your blog in 2006 and that very day I read every entry on your blog because I thought you were an interesting person with an interesting family. lol. Not long after, and because of you, I started my own blog. Since then a lot has changed in my life and I haven’t been able to maintain my own blog but, I still check in on you almost daily. I’ve since moved from Chicago to Atlanta a year ago and I am now caretaking elderly parents. What a difference a year makes!

  • Kathy/ 28.11.2010Reply

    I’ve been reading your blog for about 2 years and I found you via Patternreview. I love reading your sewing reviews and admire all the wonderful clothes you make. You have a beautiful family and I enjoy reading all about them. Congratulations!!!

  • Kim/ 28.11.2010Reply

    Hahaha…thanks for calling out us lurkers. I’ve been reading your blog for 2-3 years. It’s been a minute. Found it a link on the Ethnic Scrapbooking blog. http://ethnicscrapbooking.typepad.com/ethnic_scrapbooking/more-scrapbooking-sistahs.html
    What I like most about your blog is the variety of topics, and the Wednesday Hump Day ramblings have me cracking up. Keep up the good work!

  • Kitty/ 28.11.2010Reply

    Happy blogaversary! As a lurker, I thought I’d come say hello! I haven’t been reading your blog long, only for a few months, but I did go through and read *all* the archives. I think I came across you through Erica B’s blog, and I love reading your posts because they present not only your gorgeous work, but also a snapshot of someone who is enjoying life to the fullest with people she loves!

  • Bunny/ 28.11.2010Reply

    Hey Adrienne!!! Been reading for a couple of years now. Was away for a few months but I’m back now. Love everything about this blog, from your love and family, friends and food!!! Just tried your 7up cake recipe for Thanksgiving and it was delish!!!

  • CarlaF-in Atlanta/ 28.11.2010Reply

    Happy blogaversary! I think I found you 3 years ago when I finished grad school and decided to knit and sew again. I think I found you through another sewing blog but I can’t remember which one. I like the sewing and cooking posts. The GTFOOH posts really crack me up! I guess I just like fact that you’re just Adrienne

  • Mary Pomeroy/ 29.11.2010Reply

    Hi Adrienne,
    I found your blog only a couple of months ago – another blogger mentioned something you made so I went to check it out and loved it! I love the things you sew, and I love your fun and upbeat outlook. I love your style! I hope you keep it up for a long time.

  • Kelly/ 29.11.2010Reply

    I found your blog in early 2009 shortly after finding PatternReview. I was so inspired by all the clothes that you had made for yourself I decided to start sewing more if not most of my own every day clothes rather than just special occassion wear as I had done all of my life. I love the recipies and pics of food, yum, I love your humpday ramblings, sneak pics you take of people and how genuine you are. Keep it coming.

  • narcissaqtpie/ 29.11.2010Reply

    Happy blogaversary! I think I found you on Patternreview. I have been reading your blog for a good while now & you inspired me to blog.
    I like your postings because I can “relate” to what you share, and we share some things in common (close family, age, interests, married forever – are just a few of them.) I definitely feel like you keep it real your “vents”, your wisdom on health issues and family life speak to a lot of people. I feel like we’d be friends in real life (does that sound stalkerish? hope not, lol!)
    Plus your candid photos posts are a riot!!

  • Joy/ 29.11.2010Reply

    I’ve been reading your blog since 2007 or so. A friend of mine linked to your blog from hers (which she no longer has) and I’ve been enjoying it since. I just love your talent and zest for life. To be so young and so talented! How annoying! SIKE LOL!
    I also like how your blog highlights something which, in the age of Obama, the media implies hasn’t existed since the Huxtables – good looking, happy black families.
    BTW, love your knitting and crochet projects. I’m attempting to re-learn crochet. I tried knitting during a quick one on one tutorial and it wasn’t pretty. I think the little kid knitting a sweater made me nervous. 😉
    Happy Blogoversary! Keep up the good work!

  • Kisha/ 29.11.2010Reply

    Happy Belated Blogaversary (I think you said it was late..if not scratch the belated. lol) Anyway, I think it was 2008 when I came across your blog. I found it thru a lady named Teresa that lives in TN, I think you guys had just met IRL in TN and she linked you. I also loved her blog but she had a baby and stopped blogging *tears*. Anyway, I was inspired by your sewing to keep coming back. Yes, I was originally a lurker, too nervous to speak on here so I’d just say hmm I like that or hmm I gotta try that. lol Then I ended up meeting you in person at my favorite LSS and you were the instructor for the class I signed up for (scared the bejezzers outta me – nervous about meeting online peeps). And the rest is sealed shut and the key has been burned:)

  • Kim/ 29.11.2010Reply

    I have been reading for about 2 years and I found you after I joined the Ebony ELite blog. I love the cooking and crafting posts. I also love seeing your social life!

  • Freaky Deaky/ 29.11.2010Reply

    Happy Blogaversary!
    How did I find you? Hmmm? With my mad cyber ninja stalking skills. LOL. I’m pretty sure it was through Patrice. Tell her hi for me.
    What do I like most about your blog? Your eyebrows. :oD I kid, somewhat. Just that you blog about what interests you and you post lots of pictures even if you are mean to some of those chicks wearing sexy clothes. LOL.
    Anything else I want to share? I bet Beyonce sounds jacked up when she has a cold or sinus issues. Like she has that raspy I’m the Batman and I will have my way with you voice. Oh and apples are crunchy! That’s all.

  • Buttahfly/ 29.11.2010Reply

    I have no idea when my blogeversery is. I think Puah was 1 so that’s like 6 years. Geesh! For real?
    Anyway, you were knitting with Erika Bunker. This was before she started sewing. Can you believe it?! You guys met in a restaurnat to knit green gables I think. I STILL have not finished my green gable because I ran out of yarn.

  • Sheri D. Maple/ 29.11.2010Reply

    Happy Blogeversary!
    I know that I have been reading your blog for a few years, and that has been as long as I’ve been blogging. Wishing you continued success, may be we can be as big as the Pioneer Woman, lol.

  • Kristi/ 29.11.2010Reply

    I am pretty sure I have been here since the beginning, opr nearly, anyway! Didn’t you have a homeoage somewhere else first before you started this one??
    I “met” you through Scrap Etc and Monique (and I met Monique through Scrapjazz)

  • Michelle/ 29.11.2010Reply

    I found your Blog by connecting with you on Twitter through mutual followers over a year ago. You seemed real genuine and down to earth and I love your creativity and recipes, you inspire me.

  • cici/ 30.11.2010Reply

    Congratulations. Happy Blogiversary!!!I wonder when this word will be added to the dictionary?? I think I have been reading your blog for about a year. I always enjoy your fun topics and pictures. I have been slacking of late and have not posted in awhile. Hopefully I can also make it to 5 years. Keep up the good work♥

  • Tany/ 03.12.2010Reply
