Red Velvet is evolving every day and I plan to develop content alot more in 2012 as discussed in my New Year’s Resolutions. I’ve been blogging for a while now and have been in a little bubble, cranking out posts and doing my own thing. I read that the blogosphere is a great community to be a part of but have not connected with many other bloggers yet, until a few weeks ago.

An old friend of mine started her own blog that also shares lots of cooking tips and recipes and she reached out to me. We were high school friends and had lost touch through the years, but not intentionally, life just sort of happened. After a few emails and checking out one another’s blogs we decided we’d like to take this whole thing a little further and start sharing some content on each other’s blogs.

Dana’s blog is called Let’s Meet for Lunch and she’s got some great recipes and food tips not to mention a few household topics and DIY crafts that I think you all will enjoy! From time to time we will post on each other’s blogs and combine our efforts on different cooking topics to provide both of our readers with even more content. You will also notice that I’ve added Let’s Meet for Lunch to my blogroll so it’s easy for you to click on over and check out what she’s got going on. Also, do yourself a favor and “like” her blog on Facebook so you can get updates when she posts new info. Oh, and if you haven’t “liked” Red Velvet yet,(shame on you!) click on the icon on here and just do it already!

The best way for you to get a taste of life over at Let’s Meet for Lunch is not for me to tell you about it but to hear from Dana herself. Without further ado, here’s Dana!

                        Hi Red Velvet Blog readers!

My name is Dana, and I have known Marah since high school. She does a wonderful job with her blog, wouldn’t you agree? Browsing different blogs is something I really enjoy, and I just began writing my own a little over a month ago, called Let’s Meet For Lunch. I would like to invite you to stop by and see what I have going on! I feature mostly recipes, but will occasionally share a cleaning tip, or DIY ideas. Here are a few links to some of my more popular posts:

 

Pumpkin Pie Monkey Bread

Pierogie Bake!

DIY: Sugar Scrub

It always helps to know who is writing the blog you’re reading, so I’ll share a bit about myself. I am 20-something living in the Charlotte, NC area. At my “real” job, I am a school counselor at a middle school… which always brings something fun and interesting. My husband and I have been married for a year and a half, and we are in the midst of trying to put our house on the market. Wish us luck!

I look forward to having you stop by my blog! Click here to check it out!

Dana and I are excited about working together and coming up with some great stuff for you guys in the kitchen. Here’s to great new things in this brand new year!
