5 Blogs to Follow: The Classroom Connection

This past week marked the end of my class. I think one of the best parts was getting to know other bloggers. In a class of 200 students there were so many shining stars. I was even surprised to find that several classmates were writing blogs I've been reading for a while! So here are 5 new blogs I discovered via my classmates (although, honestly, I could go waaaaay longer than 5!):

Penelope
Penelope Loves Lists - Meredith created this site to indulge the organization freak inside (some) of us.

Recently-Updated1
ish and chi - Viv lectures PT for computing, but blogs about design and fashion from the Land Down Under. She's also got a cute Etsy shop!
PancakesF
Pancakes and Frenchfries - Jules is a wife, mother, writer, and attorney, but not always in that order. Her writing draws you in and her projects are user-friendly. Sunny, SoCal vibe.

GH2Roost
Going Home to Roost - Bonnie lives in the craft-steeped North Carolina mountains and writes about her indie art life, running three Etsy shops, and the things that inspire her.

Kiez
A Cup of Kiez - Julie and Kerstin are two English sisters living in Berlin. There's a little bit of everything here, including tasty recipes!

I had the hardest time picking only 5, but I think that's a nice, bite-sized number. I just noticed that there's quite the geographic distance between these bloggers....class was certainly international, and this was only a smattering! I hope you'll check them out!

What have you been reading lately?
