Food For Thought:
My life as a food blogger. |
I thought I would take the opportunity today to share with you how my life is going as a food blogger. At this point in my life I don't blog full-time. I work a full-time job outside the home. I work hard at my job and I try to work on my blog each day to share recipes I have collected over the years. I don't like to miss work and I don't like to miss a day to share recipes.
Each day is full of activity. I'm a homeowner and that keeps me busy too. There is always something to do around the house. Cut the grass, repairs on the house, running errands, washing clothes, change the oil in the car, scrub the toilet, and tons of other chores to do. You get the idea. You know about life.
You might be thinking about starting your own blog. If you are interested in starting your own blog business you will find this book on the subject interesting. Entrepeneur Magazine published it. Let me know your thoughts.
Food blogging on top of all of the life chores takes a lot of time and work. It is a passion for me and I am grateful to get to do it. My reason for sharing on this topic today is to ask a question. Are you tired? Do you get discouraged sometimes? I know we all do. You are not alone. We are in this life at the same time right now. We all our trying our best to get the most done and live the life we want. We want to be happy.
This is our time on this planet to create and share. I want to add an encouraging word to tell you to keep on going. Don't give up on your goals. Have you written your goals down on paper or on a digital device? I believe that is an important thing to do. One of my goals is to eventually be a full-time blogger. I get up everyday and I keep that goal at the front of my mind. I do the work each day even if it is a little step towards my goal.
If you are reading this post I hope you find my words encouraging. I am writing them for you and I am writing them for me. I believe in lifting people up if possible. If you are doing your best right now then keep on going. I would like to hear about your journey and maybe you have some encouraging words here for those who are reading. As I mentioned before, we are here together at this point in time. We are not alone. Leave your thoughts below in the comment section. Thanks for reading this far and I hope you enjoy the Strawberry Cake Recipe I share. Now I will get to the recipe for you.

Strawberry shortcake is an American favorite for many people. It has been around for a while and it has quite a history. Strawberry shortcake is made of a spongecake, strawberries, and whipped cream. It combines the flavors of sweet, creamy, and tangy with a moist cake texture. It is a simple and delicious cake. It dates back to the 15th century. The first recipe was published in 1588 in London. In the early 1920's the American company called the Continental Bakery Company introduced "Hostess Little Shortbread Finger" and they were a hit.

My Thoughts On Strawberry Shortcake:
I have a sister who is four years younger. When we were children during the 1980s the Strawberry Shortcake doll was very popular. My mother bought my sister a Strawberry Shortcake doll. It had a strawberry sent. I remember another Strawberry Shortcake doll she bought who was an evil baker man. He was purple and smelled like grapes. The fruity scent is what I remember most about those dolls. I preferred my He-Man and G.I. JOE regular plastic smell.
Strawberry cake and strawberry shortcake is one of my favorite cakes. I always enjoy the cake and it is simple to prepare if you are in a hurry. You can buy premade spongecake, put premade whipped topping and fresh strawberries on top for a quick dessert. If you want to be more creative you can make this Strawberry Cake Recipe below.
