Hello, Hello!

Hi All! I've missed each and every one of you. Sadly, just as Facebook has taken many people away from blogging, Instagram has done that for me. I've been creating stories with Blythe dolls there, and I'm starting to work Flossy, Sophie and Bluebelle into the stories now too. In case you're interested, I'm at www.instagram.com/blythegrl.

This blog allowed me to express an interest in plushies and miniatures that has now turned into a successful greeting card business. Along the way, I met amazing, sweet, and generous people and had a ton of fun. I'm grateful for all of it.

Back in January, I promised a blog giveaway. If there are still readers of this blog, there will be a giveaway. :-)

But first, Flossy and Sophie want to say hi. They're busy as always, having fun baking goodies in Cupcake Cottage. Here, they're taking a break from baking for a yummy snack, including bubble tea.


You may have noticed that there's been a change at Cupcake Cottage too! Sophie no longer hides the fact that she eats her natural diet alongside the amazing cupcakes and cakes that she and Flossy bake together:


Let's face it, we need both! Healthy with a sweet treat go hand in hand. Maybe Flossy will eat more salads now too! ;-)

I hope you're all well and having fun. Blogland is a wonderful place full of friendships that can last a lifetime. Big hugs! xoxo Jennifer

  1. Hi Jennifer! I am still reading blogs and blogging away! There are still quite a few of us! I am not really a fan of facebook and have not gotten into instagram either! I love blogs because they allow for so much more than the instant fix.... longer tutorials and stories told the slow (old fashioned?) way! It is wonderful to see more about Sophie and Flossy and all your little creatures! I am glad you are having such success with your greeting cards! Keep up the great work! And include me in your giveaway... whenever it happens! :)

  3. I have missed you and your blogs too, Jennifer but I can certainly understand that there are only so many hours in the day and what you are able to do in them. I am Delighted to hear that your greeting card business is taking off and that Flossie and Sophie are also becoming a part of your Instagram stories!
    I'm not involved with Instagram and only a little with Facebook nevertheless, I am Very Happy to see you here again even if it is not as often as before. I totally get that.
    Even so- WELCOME HOME! ;P

  4. It's great to see you back on Blogger, Jennifer! I've been having a great time following your Blythe doll adventures on Instagram, too. I absolutely love the mini bubble tea! It's one of my favorite snacks, too! (My favorite flavor is strawberry, which the one on the right looks like it could be :)

  6. Hello Jennifer, it is difficult indeed to find the time to keep up with everything. But blogger is so patient and allows for so much more than a picture or a "like". I keep coming back to it and to the wonderful community of friends I made. So welcome back :-)
    Include me in your give away whenever it happens.
    Hugs,
    Véronique

  7. Hello, how lovely to see a post from you. Have missed your sweet tiny world. I have never tried Instagram, but I do feel that perhaps my blogging time is coming to an end or at least a very long break. If I ever do try instagram I will look you up. You are quite right in that healthy and treats both are important, Sophie and Flossy have the most amazing goodies to enjoy. That piece of fish looks so fresh and nice. Take care, blessings, Pam in Norway xx

  14. Hey Jennifer! I am also not an Instagram follower. I have a hard enough time keeping up with my own blog and emails! I guess my focus is on my dolls! Nice to see you're blogging again. It's also nice to see Sophie eating more healthfully! I remember mentioning that to you once upon a time......

  17. Hi Jennifer, Good news from you always make me happy. It's wonderful to know that your greeting cards are a hit. These last ones are fantastic, so it's no surprise that people want them. I am sorry that I could not follow your link to your Instagram. Are you on Facebook? The end of next month
    my blog will celebrate its sixth anniversary. There will be a giveaway which I hope to be able to count you in.
    It's good to know Flossy is aware about healthy food. We

    1. See - there are still a few of us to be found in blogland! ;O) Although it's sometimes an adventure - for example your comment form didn't work for me... but now I'm replying at Bounnie Doll's - it's great to see a new post from you and to hear news about Sophie and Flossy, you all have been missed. I'm glad to hear Sophie stands up for being a beary now... I wish that would work with Fluby too. My fluttery guy would not get the concept of eating salmon as long as there are strawberries in the world... *sigh*

      Hugs
