Not only was Table for Five named as one of the Top 75 Blogs Parents with Teens Should Read by Bold Earth Adventures, but it came at just the right time - it's Table for Five's Six Year Bloggiversary!! I actually know that I started the blog sometime around the last week of August in 2005, but somehow in the move from Blogger to Wordpress.com, I lost a couple of posts. My oldest post is dated September 1st, 2005, I wish it had a nicer title than Feeling sad and frustrated, but that was right after Hurricane Katrina and all I was doing was watching CNN and feeling, well, sad and frustrated.

If you prefer not to place badges on your sidebars, that's totally okay too. Because today on Table for Five, it's all about YOU.
