Tomorrow is my blogiversary!
One year ago, I hit the publish button and my first post jettisoned into the blogosphere. When I started Rachel’s Table I had no idea what I was getting myself into. I had no idea what lengths I would go to or ridiculous things I would do to not only find the best, local foods, but also inform and mostly entertain you. YOU, dear readers, are the reason I write this blog. YOU, loyal readers, are the reason I stay motivated to post. YOU, lovely readers, are the reason I muddled through accomplished all of the following activities. I do it all for you:
I befriended the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
I stopped buying olives and hummus
I gardened for the first time in my life
I played Peppermeister Roulette
I became a restaurant critic, movie critic, food stylist, journalist, artist and photographer
Tomorrow, on my blogiversary, I’ll celebrate in style with a few other bloggers and lots of champagne. But to hold you over until I tell you all about it, I made this card. Just for you.
You know I don’t get paid to do this, right? YOU are my only compensation. Worth it (most of the time).
Rachel's Table 
Hold on! You are partying tomorrow and I wasn’t invited? How dare you. The nerve. I am offended deeply!
Oh, wait . . . 😉
But I might actually be offended that you included a picture of your pretty feet up there. That’s my schtick, Rache. Don’t be treading. :p
Happy almost Blogiversary!! Celebration will commence in 5 . . . 4 . . . 3 . . .
My flat, square feet are no match for your pedicured toes, Misty! Lovely to actually SEE you yesterday (now I don’t have to picture you with a question mark on your face all the time.)
Cheers to finding our “tribe”! 🙂
You are the (unsalted) butter to my bread and the breath to my life:) Happy Blogiversary!
Thank you! ❤ ❤ ❤
PS – Unsalted butter is the only kind of butter.
Congrats. I’ll toast you from afar. (Check Google Earth, you’ll be able to see it if you look carefully…)
I see you!
I am so glad to live in California because I could never give up olives! 🙂 Glad you started blogging, Rachel, because I, for one, get a lot out of your words. Grats on your Blogiversary!
Jealous of your olives!
And thank you so much for reading my words! So sweet of you to say that.
Happy blogoversary, Rach! I’ll be toasting to you here in NC. xoxo
Cheers, Emily!
Congrats! I am coming up on mine in March. I can’t wait!
Thanks, Ben! March is soon. You should start celebrating now. 🙂
Keep it up, way to go!
Thanks!!
Happy anniversary, Rachel!! I can’t believe you’ve only been blogging one year. I love the photo collage. I don’t think I’d ever tire of seeing your old photo that Angie had gracing her blog…your hair was even higher than mine.
That picture makes me smile every time I see it. I love that awkward girl.
Thanks, Darla! I saw Jules yesterday. So wish you could have joined us.
Congratulations on your anniversary. I’m looking forward to your next year of posts.
Thanks, Karen!
Happy Blog-anniversary!! Only one year old! Your blog is all kinds of awesome
My readers are all kinds of awesome. Thank you!
Hilarious! Loved this one!
I can finally comment!!!! Huzzah! And speaking of huzzah – happy 1st blogoversary!!! I’m soooo happy I got to toast to that in person – how lucky am I?! Please feel free to cook for me any time you celebrate a future milestone. 13-month blogoversary party, anyone?
The photo collage is GORGEOUS.
Thanks! 🙂
I will be happy to celebrate each and every blog milestone with you. Heck, let’s celebrate every single post. I’ll stock up on bacon and champagne. See you tomorrow?
In the unforgettable words of Mr. Rache, “It’s like every day’s a celebration!”
