Monday Notes

Hello, dear readers!  Did you have a wonderful summer weekend?  I'm actually okay with starting the week because I'm a bit frolicked out after New York - who would have thought that working a proper job would serve as a respite from the weekends?  Whoops.

Just a few quick pieces as we head back into the swing of things:

→ I don't think I ever publicly acknowledged all the hard work that Joelle from A Charming Occasion put into her reboot of my blog header - lady, you're the best!  Thank you for not even blinking when, two months after you completely upgraded my blog design, I told you we needed to make a change.  It was such a delight to work with you!

→ You might notice that I've changed the settings for how you can comment on this blog.  That's because I got tired of the spammers trying to sell us drugs.  (If you want the links, though, let me know and I'll hook you up.  No, just kidding.  No illegal activities here, officer!)  It shouldn't affect my actual readers/followers, but just email me if you run up against problems and I'll see what I can do to sort it all out.

→ Speaking of comments, can I ask you to do me a favor?  Please include your email when you comment!  I'd love to respond to each of you, but I can't do that if your email isn't attached to your comment and/or your blog profile.

→ I indulged in a rant-ette last week on Twitter about how frustrating I find it when blogs include rampant (and, often, recurrent) grammatical and/or spelling errors.  I know that none of us is immune to making mistakes, so please do call me out if you catch me in the wrong!

On that note, have a great week, lovelies - I hope it's perfectly beautiful wherever you are!  (And if you're in England, I'll try to send you some of our sun and heat.  There's no sense in jumpers and tights being worn this far into summer!)
