Inspiration

the world of blogging cracks me up. the fact that i can spend every day for the last couple of months following a blog of someone i don’t know and feel such inspiration from it, humors me. it also makes me feel like a little bit of a voyeur. not in the “sexual gratification from observing unsuspecting individuals who are partly undressed, naked, or engaged in sexual acts way”, but in the “a prying observer who is usually seeking the sordid or the scandalous” way. angie rarely eats anything sordid or scandalous, she does give me great ideas on how i can eat better.

i cannot even remember how or when i found angie’s blog, but i check it every day to see what she is doing and eating. i finally decided this weekend to share this little bit of my voyeur-ism with my husband. i told him that although i find it a little weird, i have gained a ton of “eating better” ideas from angie. like my new love of liberte yogurt. she gave me the desire to go to planet organic and find new foods. i am pretty sure it is angie who gave me the idea to make brussel sprouts one night (my kids hated them).

so although i have never even left a comment on her blog, and we live very different lives (i work full time and have two small children that i need to cook for), i thank her for her inspiration eat better, cook better and to blog about my life.
