Tina Fisher - Meg, OH MY GOSH!! I am so totally loving what you are doing. Your blog is beautiful and I really want to come to one of your crafty weekends. I especially love the United States patchwork thingy. Sooo beautiful. And I didn’t realize your Whatever was from Whatever is lovely, whatever is good…It was so great to meet you at Storyline!! Love and hugs, Tina happyfungirl.com

Michelle S - Great pictures! Can you please tell me where you got your “Love More” t-shirt you’re wearing in the picture where you’re working on computer? Thanks!

Amber - Oh! Waffle’s eyelashes, I can’t shake off that song either! and your drive home *sigh* beautiful! Thanks for sharing pics of ordinary days, I think they look a lot like everybody else’s too. It’s reassuring! : )

carrie - ok, so the next post down WAS an entire post of chicken pictures! ha! loved it!

carrie - you could do an entire post of chicken pictures and i would laugh at every single one. love those ladies!

Wendy - The basket of toilet paper … and the empty roll(s) which never make it in the garbage. Story. Of. My. Life.

Tanya - Loved this post. Fave pics are of Annie because she reminds me of my girl so very much 🙂 🙂 🙂

Flower Patch Farmgirl - I like this a lot.
And I miss Cory’s snappy shirts and ties! It feels like forever ago…he does NOT miss them. At all. And I don’t really miss all the ironing…

Laura h - Bam! Wow! Thank you for sharing the pictures! I was having a huge pity party..blah, blah, blah baaad day…
I usually go to Pinterest on these types of days because sometimes I just need to SEE pretty stuff. I have a whole board dedicated to your blog, because I love your pictures so much! So thank you for giving me something to make me smile, and smile I did!!

Angela - You are so skinny now!!!! Way to go! I loved all the pictures. Will you leave the bunting up during the winter? I wish there were Menards in the South my girlfriends are always getting cute things there.

Jeannine - You inspire me like crazy 🙂

Tiffany - I like your ordinary!

Georgia - These are the blog posts i love, and the ones that got me hooked on your blog about 5 years ago!

Xo

Lori - Totally in love with the rainbow sweatshirts! Have been hoping for years that you will make some in adult sizes!!!! Can I special order?!?

Heather S. - Sadly – Shake It Off is my jam.
And your snack, it’s my afternoon snack almost daily. Even better though – I melt the peanut butter. Makes it fabulous for dipping my apple wedges.

amy jupin - these are my favorite kind of posts.
mostly because they make our lives seem so similar (which they are) and make me miss you all the more (because we could be grocery shopping together!).
and i solemnly swear to pick up my real camera this week and take some pictures.
because this real life stuff is worth capturing.
thanks for the reminder!

Sarah - Thank you for this post. I was just telling my husband that I’m a bit weary of my vocation as stay at home mom and all that entails. Just seeing everyday life in someone else’s house and the full grocery cart and the overflowing dishes and laundry and the joy and regular stuff is good. So good to remember this vocation is rewarding and hard all at once. Thanks. Also, I think we might have the same paint on our walls. 🙂

Kristin S - I love your random posts!

1. Who took the last paper towel? That would make me crazy.

2. Where did you get your cute purse? I’ve been on the hunt for two years…

Michelle from Australia - My eight visit to the USA is coming up in 7 weeks. Not that I’m counting….much!! In my tripping through much of your beautiful country (my American friends joke that I’ve seen way more of the USA than they have!) I haven’t experienced Sonic. Or a Sonic Happy Hour. Note to self from December/January trip, find a Sonic!

Karen Gerstenberger - These are all fun, but my favorite is the one chicken eye.

KirstenP - I really like the roll of fabric from Joann’s – gray background with white and yellow flowers. I hope you show us how you plan to use it.

Megan - I am just wondering how much you generally spend on the quilts you buy?

I wish wish wish I could find a good source for old quilts here in Maine. I always search at antique shops but never have any luck. I have seen some for $100 but I certainly do not want to spend that much on one. any advice?

thanks-
megan

Julie - Lots of colour and fun. Those dishes and piles of washing just never do them selves unfortunately. Love all those autumn leaf shots.
have a wonderful weekend.

Carol S. - Ordinary is very good. Love my new singer heavy duty seeing machine $120 amazon, just shortened 12 king size pillowcases to standard size..the only size pillow I like. Thanks for recommendation.
