Today instead of something deeply philosophical or thought-provoking of my own, I’d like you to consider stopping over and visiting a new blog on the block, Corn Fed Girl, written by my very own little sister. (Well, at 28 she’s not all THAT little, but she’s shorter and thinner, so we’ll go with it.)
She came to me the other day asking for help in setting up a blog and I can’t help but feel extremely excited that she’s interested in taking up such an interesting hobby. My sister, like everyone else, has had her share of troubles and successes in life, but she’s really developed into a good person with a kind heart, an open mind, and intelligent thoughts. I’m pretty darn proud of her.
I think she writes very well and many of my readership may enjoy her thoughts, so head on over and check out such entries as:
Yup, I’m Corn Fed! — Where she describes her thoughts behind exactly what the term, “corn fed”, really means.
Here I am blogging world! — Where she describes her motivations behind starting up this blogging thing.
Getting My “Needer” Fixed — Fixing her wants and needs.
Or you can simply add her to your feed reader through her RSS feed.
I hope you enjoy my sister’s blog — I know I’ll be insanely curious to see what she writes about!
what exactly is corn fed? i know people say they are corn fed but isnt it ewhen a live stock is fed with corn then that animal is produced into meat/ therefore making it “corn fed beef” or some what..
If you head on over to that post, I think she does a good job of detailing what it means to her!
The blog is pretty, Nathan. Did you help her with the design or just the techy stuff? I’ll keep an eye out and see what she gets up to!
Julia´s last blog ..So Over These Songs
@Katrina: Typically around here, it means you were raised on or at least raised near (or with) midwestern or farm-based values and ideas. You might be a farm kid or you might just be raised in a family that goes for the down-to-earth, hard-working, near-to-the-land attitudes established in Midwestern USA.
@Julia: The template is something we found free online; we modded it a bit. The banner on the top was done by my wife who does a lot of that digital fiddling. The technical I all did for her, of course. I’m interested to see what she writes, too!
