Hot Links—7/17/08 (Gone to BlogHer edition)
I'm just about to leave for Blogher (cute shoes? check. false eyelashes? check. no kids with me? check!) so I thought I'd leave you with some fun links to check out while I am gone.
I have a new post up at Tonic. It's about one of my personal heroes: artist, blogger, and force to be reckoned with, Jen Lemen, who is going to get a big, huge hug the moment I see her.
I am mentioned—along with the sassy and fabulous Mir Kamin of Would Coulda Shoulda and the deliciously talented Elise Bauer of Simply Recipes—as one of 6 "inspiring women bloggers" in the August issue of Redbook. My piece focuses on Kimchi Mamas. There are three other amazing bloggers mentioned and I highly recommend reading their inspiring stories. I'm delighted to be in such great company! (And a note: the article left out that it was the lovely Nina of Charlie and Nina that first planted the seed to create our fabulous blog. While I reached out to people I knew, she gets the credit for kickstarting plans and for recently "re-kickstarting" us with several new bloggers added to the fold.)
Speaking of inspiring bloggers, please check out who is now blogging for BlogHer!
And lastly, if you are going to be at BlogHer, please come and find me during the 3-a-Day-sponsored Milk and Cookie break tomorrow (Friday) from 10:00-10:30. I will have a camera with me and will be conducting blogger interviews. I'm just asking 1 or 2 questions but would love to meet you and give you the opportunity to promote your blog on camera! Come even if you are lactose- (or cookie-) intolerant! :-)
Congrats on being featured in the article. That's awesome!

I'll be there and I'd love some milk and cookies.
But I have no desire to be on camera.

A friend on RaisingBakersfield told me the other day about your profile on Redbook.com--thanks for the mention of RiceDaddies! Have fun at BlogHer!
