Top Ten Most Popular Blog Posts in 2021
What a year it has been. I learned a lot this year and today I am sharing my Ten Most Popular Blog Posts in 2021.
It is quite an eye-opening experience looking back at the year.
Looking Back at My blog Posts
I mentioned the other day how many blog posts I had written in 2021. It’s now up to 354.
Which is totally insane. I know.
But as I mentioned before, I love this job (yes, it is a job) and sharing ideas with you every day.
I did a bit of research (via Google Analytics) and discovered my Top Ten Blog Posts for the year.
And I was really surprised. I never would have thought these would be my Top Ten Posts for the year.
I was not even close.
And here they are!
Top Ten Most Popular Blog Posts in 2021
There were so many surprises on this list. I would only have guessed two of these! Oh well, that's why these results are based on your choices and not mine.
Why is it that eggs are so hard to boil perfectly? Today I am going to share the secrets to how long to hard boil an egg and the best Deviled Egg Recipe ever.
Today I am sharing how our home got involved in filming movies, tv shows, and commercials. It’s been an incredible experience and I hope to show you How to Rent your home for movies too!
Thanks for joining me for Sunday morning coffee. Today I am sharing my weekly thoughts about entertaining, decor, crafts, and recipes and my slight obsession with a gal named Martha.
We entertain a lot and I tired of renting plastic tables. So I built my own wood table tops that look like our expensive dining room table! Today I am sharing how to make wood table tops.
Today's post is a tribute to the most important woman in my life, my mom. I love you mom and miss you with all of my heart.
I love this Valentine DIY craft. These kitchen towels and pink dish soap are a perfect gift or a fun way to spruce up your kitchen.
These Valentine’s Day sugar cookies are so much fun to make. I love that everyone can make these cookies, even if you have never made royal icing before!
Let’s all try to re-invigorate a room in our home with decor we already own! I am going to share how I did this using our dining room decor.
Today I am pleased to share with you my first Sunday Morning Coffee. This is a place to share, learn, explain, dream, and have fun.
My First Sunday Morning Coffee – Jan 3, 2020
A year ago I wrote my first Sunday Morning Coffee blog post.
I was excited.
I wanted to share more about myself, my thoughts, where I had been, and where I wanted to go.
This is one of the paragraphs I wrote in that first post as I described how I hoped to progress through the year on my blog.
“This year it’s all about home. It’s about making subtle and affordable changes in our homes and creating our own decor with inexpensive craft projects that look expensive. It’s about making subtle changes in our diets that make us feel better. And it’s about creating wonderful memories by entertaining at home in fun ways we never imagined.“
To be honest, I never went back and reread this post to remind myself what I had written. Rather I just followed my heart and what I wanted to achieve and where I wanted to go.
Somehow I stayed right on track.
If you had told me then that this post would be the most popular post in 2021 I never would have believed you.
Never.
What you don’t know is I wrote that same post the same week I was going through one of the most difficult weeks of my life. My mom was ill and nearing the end of her life. She had struggled with Alzheimer’s for years and we had only been able to see her via zoom calls for the previous year (due to the pandemic). Since she was in hospice we were finally able to see her, and hold her, and talk with her with hopes that she knew who we were and how much we loved her.
My second Sunday Morning Coffee was a tribute to my mom and her life and was a lot more personal than anything I had ever written.
When I saw that this post made this list I cried even more tears for my mom.
Thank you.
I am going to continue to write weekly Sunday Morning Coffee posts in 2022. I might change the format a bit but I will continue to share things that I don’t regularly share on my blog.

Leslie,
These are all great. I was surprised at my list as well.
Leslie,
I want to say thank YOU! Thank you for bringing “sunshine” to what may be a gloomy day. Thank you for sharing your home, your ideas and the never ending inspiration. I am sincerely looking forward to what you will share in 2022! I wish a very happy & healthy New Year to you and your family.
I want to start blogging, but I’ve never been able to step out of the boat. Maybe 2022 will be the year. You are so inspiring. I have enjoyed you and your post.
Leslie thank you so much for following your creative passions and your heart. I have so longed to start a blog and your personality and your inspirations have pushed me over the line. 2022 is the time to begin….awww. I have so much to share and don’t know where to begin. Are you allowed to share what company you use for your blog? Thank you and again, your ease of sharing has gotten me where I am.
