Random Thoughts and Lucky Charms
I had this conversation with my 4-year old yesterday - verbatum:
Ms. Smarty-Pants: "Let's pretend I put this on my blog"Moi: "Your blog? What's a blog?"
Ms. Smarty-Pants: "Some place where you make yourself look prettier than what you are".
Out of the mouth of babes.
My cheat sheet:
- http://thesaurus.reference.com/ - I don't have to get up to look a word up any longer
- http://www.wetcanvas.com/ - you already know about this one, but surely it bears repeating: immense source of tips, techniques and public domain images
- http://www.photoshopsupport.com/tutorials/jennifer/blog-templates.html - this was my very first find when I started blogging: a useful site on customizing templates and learning about blogging and photoshop, a good place to start with lots of links and things to learn.
- http://www.homepagemadeeasy.com/color_chart.html - where colour codes are easy to find (e.g. for customizing your template)

oh! Thanks for the links..I have not visited any of them before! Can't wait to check them out...
BTW- your daughter's ability to recite the text book definition of "blog" is excellent! Brilliant at such an early age!
Just like her mommy. The other one takes after her auntie.
your links are really helpful, rima, especially the photoshop tutorial on blogging. lots of good info there!

p.s. i would love to talk printers with you sometime, too
LOL, that little one is astute! And cute as button! When will she start her own blog? No making prettier necessary.
Oh, and thank you for the links. My computer timer has gone off (rrrrring), but I look forward to coming back to them later.
What an astute little babe she is and cute as can be! Yes, indeed, thanks to photoshop and others we can indeed fix all those pesky problems in our appearance. Better than botox!
I will have a look around these links...especially the photoshop one. Thanks!
A genuine lucky charm if you find one of those, and a charming picture!
Made me laugh. Is she hopeful or cynical?
Funny little princess.
Give her an extra hug for being a bright button.
Oh my! I genuinely lol'd. Too stinking cute. What a little genius.
Ms. little you-know-who must have been looking at my blog!! Oh how I miss them both so much! Did you cut her gorgeous hair again?!!! Send me more pictures (just for me, okay?)
I love little kids and the honest things they say. This way you never get an inflated ego. Not that you have one, Rima! Kids can be so down to earth. Mine still says what is on her mind, even at this age. Trust your own kids to always be honest with you!
And here I was assuming you look better than your pictures *Smile* ... (I sure hope I do) ... your daughter let the cat out of the bag.
She is cute as a button.
Thank you for these links!!

Diane, I can vouch that Rima's pic does not depict her as I know her..The little sunshine was just being cute :)
