Who nominated me
Maegen Teasley of This Sweaty Life was the one to nominate me. She has a wonderful blog that is filled with some great, healthy recipes and workouts (I have her workouts bookmarked for later reference after the holidays) that I full heartily recommend that you check out, they are great! I just want her to know that I thank her so much for nominating my blog, she has no idea how much this means to me!
My favorite blog
If you know me personally then you know that I absolutely adore Her Interactive's Nancy Drew PC game series. I sometimes get stuck in the game and I look to Arglefumph for guidance. I usually go to his YouTube channel, but he has this great blog that is full of game walkthroughs and a view of his personal life. His blog has a slight touch of humor to his writing, reminds me of my dry, nerdy humor. He also has a few recipes listed on there. I've been binge reading/watching his post on the "Everything Wrong With..." series since it pokes fun at some of the problems in the Nancy Drew games (no game is perfect, especially point and click ones) and anyone that has played one of the games in the series would find those posts humorous! I've been a fan since 2009 and I will continue to support his blog.
