Blog-iversary

It was a year ago today that I created Good Times. After the Christmas shopping had been completed and the presents had been wrapped, I sat down at the computer and entered the world of blogging. Following in my sister's footsteps, I created the blog to serve as a tool for sharing pictures and stories with friends and family.

One year and 258 posts later, Good Times is now followed by 7 devoted readers. The site has been visited 9,470 times. It has been as useful of a sharing tool as I had hoped it would be. We are able to keep our family and friends updated with pictures and stories from our lives. It is fun for us to glance back at the photos and happenings from the last year; in that way, the blog has also become a reflective tool.

We hope that you have enjoyed the blog's first year in cyberspace. To mark this special occasion, we are sponsoring a contest for our readers. The first two readers to email me (bauerbach24@yahoo.com) with the correct answers to following questions will receive Caribou gift cards (First Place: $15, Second Place: $5):

1. What was the title of the very first post featured on Good Times?
2. On which date did Good Times receive a face lift?
3. What is the name given to the weekly recipe post on Good Times?
4. How many posts have been written about Bailey?
5. Name one of Good Times' seven followers.

Good luck! Winners will be announced here on Good Times. Stay tuned!
