I love it when my friends have blogs. Probably because I live way too far away from everyone, but I think it's a great way to keep in touch. Talking on the phone has proven pretty much impossible for me given the number of interruptions I always seem to have. (The girls have some sort of must-talk-to-Mommmy-while-she's-on-the-phone radar.) Facebook allows me to feel like I have some idea what is going on in a friend's life by looking at photos or hearing random short thoughts, but a blog allows more time to delve into what someone is thinking on any given day - about politics or music or her child not sleeping through the night or whatever. It's a far cry from a long talk over a cup of coffee or glass of wine, but given that most of my friends live in Maryland, D.C., New York, Florida, California, North Carolina, Maine, and other various places that are a plane ride away from Colorado (or a very loooong car ride with three kids away), it's a nice subsitute.
I have a list of friends' blogs along the side of my blog (let me know if you have one and aren't on there!), and am happy to add another one today. Diana, one of my best friends from college, now has a recipe blog.

Happy reading!
