I’m Going to BlogHer Food Miami + The TODAY Show Feature
There’s a lot going on this week, so I took a moment to write up a quick update since I won’t have enough time to add my usual recipe posts.
First of all, I’m attending the BlogHer Food Conference in my hometown of Miami this weekend. Its two full days of food blogging boot camp, attended by many of the top bloggers in the country.
BlogHer is a media company with a community of thousands of blogs. They work to empower female publishers in all publishing genres. There will be keynote speeches, panels to attend and lots of FOOD to taste and photograph. This year David Lebovitz is speaking along with many others.
This is my very FIRST blogging event and I’m looking forward to all the fun and opportunities. My business cards are ready to be picked up and I’ll be sure to wear comfy shoes. Be on the lookout for play-by-play Twitter and Instagram shares this Friday and Saturday to see what I’m up to.
I want to send a big THANK YOU to my husband for gifting me a ticket to BlogHer Food this Mother’s Day, and listening to my nonstop bloggie talk, and watching our son while I’m off at the Conference. Love you!
To add a little more excitement to my week, one of my recipes was featured on The Today Show website, Today.com!
Did you think I was going on the Today Show? Nope–it’s not THAT exciting 🙂
May 15th is National Chocolate Chip Cookie Day and they included my chocolate chip cake recipe in their story, Chip away! Try these 9 scrumptious recipes starring chocolate chips. Let’s take another look at that cake.

Have a great weekend

I do not normally like conference or things where you have to travel for business but I am a bit jealous of you at the moment. You will have to tell us all about it when you get back! Of course you are a blogger so I know you will share your experience!
Have a great time. Can’t wait to ready more about it when you get a chance to blog about it.
