And from the gobs of money I've been raking in from my blog (gobs = 0), we know that I have succeeded.

Before starting my blog, my husband couldn't comprehend anyone spending as much time on recipes, cooking, reading food magazines and watching Food Network - now he knows there are THOUSANDS just like me! Everyone blogs for different reasons - I mainly started mine because my sister would ask me "what did you make for dinner?" and I'd go into great detail, only to see my dinner on her blog the next day (that she never made!).
