If you had told me a year ago that so much of my life today would revolve around social media, I would have laughed in your face. Probably also would have laughed at myself. But that’s the way it is and I could not be more excited about it!
This weekend I attended Blog Better Boston, a conference put on by two amazing bloggers, Amy of Stylish Year and Alana of The Good Girl Gone Blog. I got to catch up with some good blogging pals plus meet a bunch of lovely new ones, and learned a lotta lot about this crazy world of blogs + social media + networking. It’s truly amazing, and I was inspired by so many people who are really conquering it in the best of ways.
Here are some snapshots from the day– linking up with a {little} dash of ash for Instagram Monday!
Business cards ready to go
DIY swag bags… because who would appreciate this more than bloggers??
Mini chocolate + orange cupcakes during break thanks to Eventbrite
Super swag bag, full of goodies from Real Simple, Stephanie Johnson, Pretzel Crisps, Indie Lee, Stonewall Kitchen, Alex & Isabelle, INDi, INPINK, andΒ Garden Botanika.
The only downside to a conference like this is the fact that I now want to spend all waking hours working on this little blog of mine. So hopefully you’ll be seeing some spring cleaning around here very soon…!

I’m with you about wanting to spend so many hours every day working on the blog than doing anything else. Oh well, all in due time! It was great seeing you at the conference. Hope to see you at a Boston Bloggers event soon! – Katy
