Did anyone else read the book How to be a Perfect Person in Just Three Days in elementary school? The gist: a young boy reads a self-help book on “how to be perfect” and comes to realize, by the end, that perfect people are boring because all they do is sit around and drink weak tea.
According to the book, they also have to wear broccoli necklaces. I’m not sure how that goes along with being perfect, but Broccoli Girl approves of the idea 🙂
In any case, it’s a cute book for kids.
I get stressed just like anyone else. And I feel pressured for time just like anyone else. Just because I’m not writing about my flaws doesn’t mean I have none. Maybe the fact that I don’t like to share them is a flaw in itself?
I’m going to have to cut back on my own posts, too. I just can’t continue to blog every single day and still have the amount of time I want to spend with my real-life friends. (I love you guys in the blogworld… but I want to spend more time in the real world too, ya know?)
No one is perfect, what is funny is that i almost bought a veggie charm for my sisters charm bracelet when i was younger but thought she would be upset lol… Do you remember the Fudge books? Those were awesome too…
Do you ever want your blog to be a business? Or are you just enjoying doing it for fun and want to keep it that way..
Great post. And, as much as I (and you) love broccoli, a necklace of it probably wouldn’t be the best idea. The stuff sort of stinks, you know?
I whole heartedly approve of the broccoli necklace:)
You are right on girl about being perfect. I think we all have flaws, etc but you do a great job with your posts with keeping things real and fun. 🙂 That’s what we love most is that you are so happy on your blog which is great! I understand your frustration with keeping up with commenting, blogging and real life. It is hard! Good luck with everything but I know whatever you do – will be great 🙂
hmm. can i wear a necklace made of sweet potatoes instead? dude, anyone with a blog called chocolate covered katie has got to be cool. keep on keepin’ on, sista!
Great post!! Blogging is a part of life.. not our entire lives haha
Hi Katie
Perfection is what the world sees when they look at blogs; most successful bloggers post a tiny snapshot of their life; one which is happy and “perfect” looking. Even if 95% of the rest of the time we do things like diaper changes, oil changes, and lines at the grocery store and bad hair days. LOL
Coconut butter looks great!
I have a coconut PB give away going on right now. i know you’re a coconut girl 🙂
And less commenting/less posting…REAL LIFE, go live it!!! yes!!!!
Love ya girl! 🙂
Imperfections are part of who we are, we all have them. I know I dont blog about my imperfections thats for sure. And I feel pressure too! About finding that balence between work, school, friends and online friends it can be stressful thats for sure!
Looking forward to tomorrow’s post 😀
Perfection is SO overrated. Life shouldn’t be the pursuit of perfection!
