Mondays random thoughts:

It won't be below 100 degrees for the next 7 days...yuck.

We have only had 5 inches of rain in the last 3 months...double yuck.

I don't watch a whole lot of tv these days...It kind of bores me...but I do have a new favorite show:
Adam Richmonds: Best Sandwich in America ...


Look at all my lovely new followers!? Hello!

As readers do you prefer for someone to email after you leave a comment or visit your blog in return?

soooo let me hear them...random thoughts?

p.s. be sure to check out the strawberry shortcake recipe...so easy, no baking :)

That cake looks divine!

As a reader if I NEVER ever get a return comment on a blog that I tend to comment on often then I stop leaving comments. Sometimes I even stop reading. I can't respond to every comment myself, but if they have a return email address, I try to respond sometimes.

Have a happy Monday!

YUCK is right.

That looks amazing!!

I am not too picky where return comments are concerned. I do however TRY and respond to any comments left on my blog.

Yum that looks amazing! As for the comments, I personally tend to reply through e-mail if their address is linked and I have the option. Then when I have a bit more down time, I visit their blog too. On the receiving end, I think I prefer return comments more than e-mails though!

That cake looks amazing....and easy!!! I can handle that. :)

As far as comments--I am not picky--and don't really expect a response--but if I do get one, I typically prefer by email.

Susan said...

I'm good with either depending...say it's a fashion post :: I would prefer they visit my blog and have a peek if I'm visiting for a link-up. If I leave a question, I definitely prefer an email response.
Some bloggers reply in the comments : I have tried that, problem is not everyone subscribes to comments and/or visits again. So there's that.

yay for strawberry shortcake...love it...yuck for hot weather...i kind of melt in heat...and i know little in the way of blogger and technology...i don't even know how to set my comments so i can reply to them or email back.

YUMMMMMMM!!!! My mouth is watering! Sorry you are burning up! I hope you get some relief soon. If a comment warrants a response that everyone is interested in, I'll post it. Otherwise, I e:mail.

Ugh, it was over 100 everyday we were camping in Ohio last weekend. I don't recommend that--stay inside!

It seems like everyone has their opinions on blog commenting etiquette and I can't keep up with it all! Not without my family and "real life" friends suffering. So do whatever works for you, and those who value what you do (me!) will stick around no matter what :)

That cake looks great! Yikes thats hot! I'm going to Arizona in a few weeks and I think It's going to be that hot.

Contemplating Beauty said...

Oh we have had SUCH awful hot weather too hon--no fun! And we need rain so desperately!!!

Are you joking with that cake sister?

katygirl said...

Listen, I can't return every comment I get in this stage of life. Haha. I never notice if people do not return my comments. I don't think that's what it's all about! You should just comment on something because you like the post with no return obligation, you know? But....I never ever go check back on someone's blog to see if they've replied to me. I don't have time and I forget...so I'd prefer the reply email. :)
