Everyone's phones went off yesterday at the same time with an emergency alert for a blizzard! As far as I can tell it's been snowing steadily since early this morning...I'm glad I don't absolutely have to go outside! 

Anyway, my head is buzzing with everything I learned at IFB Conference - it was a really fun experience and I highly recommend it if you've never been to a blogging conference! Everyone was super sweet, and the panelists were great! I also feel like I just have so much to learn about blogging. There were lots of panels/workshops about monetizing your blog/affiliate marketing - and while I think that's great, (I use affiliate links myself), I know that I'm not in it for the money. I blog because I love it! 

I can't wait to start sharing more about IFB Conference next week, I'll be working on those posts this weekend to have them ready! 

This weekend is the Lunar New Year - and assuming the snow doesn't trap everyone, I'll be going to dinner in Chinatown tomorrow night and possibly a night of karaoke after - everyone just needs to belt their hearts out every once in a while, right? I also can't wait to catch up on the blogosphere today - I've been so behind this week!

What are you up to this weekend? If you're in the Northeast...stay safe and warm!

Happy Chinese New Year!
