Welcome to Blog Hop 09 visitors!
For my non-tweeting, non-blogging readers, Blogher 09 is a conference being held in Chicago this weekend that "everyone" in the blogosphere is buzzing about. In reality, there are only about 1500 women in attendance, but in our niche of women bloggers, it seems as though everyone in the world is going to Blogher--except us!
There are several "I'm-not-going-to-Blogher" blog parties this weekend, and Blog Hop 09 is the PG rated version (!). Many thanks to Pensieve and Musings of a Housewife for sponsoring this.
For first time visitors, I am a Christian woman, wife, mother, daughter, sister, and friend. We have a house in rural small town Louisiana that we seldom live in, and spend most of our time in a corporate apartment in Georgia (for now). I've been a working-outside-the-house gal for most of my adult life, but have had the privilege for the last year of being able to stay at home for the first time in years. And because of that, I'm also a couponer and deal chaser, and have recently become a frequenter of thrift shops and flea markets.
This blog started out to chronicle my struggle to become a true chayil woman of strength and virtue, and it evolves in different directions according to what I'm doing or thinking about.
In addition to A Virtuous Woman, I have a food blog, Secrets of a Southern Kitchen, where I share simple, easy recipes for everyday foods.
I appreciate you stopping by for the 2009 Blog Hop! Pull up a chair and look around, I hope your find something to your liking!
Until next time...
