Ahhh yes, BlogHer Food was a few weeks ago and I still have not posted about it yet. You can call me a slacker, it’s totally fine.
It all began with my 7 hour solo car ride to Atlanta. Thank goodness for Cosmo Radio on XM/Sirus radio. I love love love Wake up with Taylor. Anyone else listen to it?
I met up with my new friends Susan of Doughmesstic ( my roommate) and Brandi of Bran Appetit. We hosted a HUGE(that is not an understatement) party at the Hard Rock Cafe rightfully name ROCKHER. We spend hours and hours filling up swag bags for ALL of our attendees.
Lots and lots of spoons tables. A HUGE THANKS to all of our wonderful sponsors. A full list of them can be seen here and another great list HERE.Β With out you, our party would not have been such a big success!
I sat at the check in table all night long. We had a steady line out the door the whole night. I obviously did not get to take any pictures. Spices Bites took some good ones and so did Danicas Daily
Friday was the first day of the conference. I learned a lot and met some lovely ladies.
Below are the only 2 pictures of me in existence from the whole weekend I do believe. I was a bad girl in the picture taking dept.
The first photo is of me and Jenny from Picky Palate. We both loved our cardigans. It was like a Mr. Rodgers festival with the two of us.
The next photo is from breakfast on day one..from left to right..Me, Jennifer-Savoring The Thyme, Diane-Created by Diane, Shari-Tickled Red, Susan-She’s Becoming DoughMesstic, Carrie-Fields of Cake, Farihah-Spices Bites and Brandi- Bran Appetit
On Friday night Susan invited about 18 of us girls to Dinner at Ray’s in the City. Hop on over to her blog to read all about it.
On Sat. Susan invited me to a nice little shopping Spree at Home Goods. Brandi took some good photos of our fun trip. I love love love Home Goods.
All in all it was a fun trip. I was EXHAUSTED! It was wonderful being around so many people with the same interest..FOOD and FOOD BLOGS. Β I met sooooo many sweet people. Too many to list!
oh wow. i think i saw you at the home goods event. was your hair in ponytail and were you wearing a pink dress? it was such a fun event. i couldn’t imagine driving 7hrs. by myself. love your blog. hope you have a great weekend.
Yep..that was me pink dress!!! π
Looks like a lot of fun! Hope to get there next year maybe. I have that same cardigan too π
These are great pictures! Thanks so much for sharing so we could be a part of it too!
It’s my dream to go next year. This year I felt too much like a newbie but I’m learning more every day and my blog is growing nicely and I feel like I’d get a lot out of it. Glad to hear you had such a positive experience!
How amazing to have such a group of talented, creative and wonderful women all together. Glad you enjoyed!
I enjoyed all the pics you posted! Looks like you all have such a fun time!!! (I love satellite radio….)!
Looks like a ton of fun. I recently went to Blogworld and got in all of 2 pictures, too. So don’t feel so bad! The important thing is experiencing.
I’m jealous enough for two people over your swag bags! π
I’m so glad we met at BlogHer. Meeting in person really has made me feel more connected π LOVE that!! Sad I didn’t make it to your party. Two delayed flights to blame for that, I heard it was great!
Yes..It was wonderful meeting in person!!!! Gotta love the airlines ..Grrrrr
I can’t believe I didn’t realize this was a few weeks ago, and I live in Atlanta!! And yes, I do listen to Cosmo and Wake Up. Miss Victoria, but love the fun kid club!
I miss all of you so much! What a fun weekend π
Is that a hot pink mixer?!
Ohhh yes. Is’nt she beautiful???
