Q+A: Meet Madison

Founders Note: Today on the blog we Madison of The Wetherills say I do! I know I have mentioned it before but I just love her blog! She is so sweet, and I have enjoyed building a relationship with her through blogging. Today she is sharing a little bit about herself and her blog, so be sure to check out her blog at the links below! 




1. How long have you been designing blogs?
I've been working with HTML and blog design since the days of Myspace. The first time I ever did a full design of a blog from start to scratch was with my personal blog when I studied abroad in Italy! Getting to do blog designs is super fun and an awesome creative outlet for me. 

2. What's your favorite fall recipe?
 Normally I would say my pumpkin chocolate chip muffins, but lately I've been on an apple kick. I recently saw a recipe for a salted caramel apple crisp that I cannot wait to make!

3. What's your favorite fall holiday and why? 
 Thanksgiving, for sure! I have always loved being in the kitchen all day preparing a meal for family. I can't wait for when our house becomes the house everyone goes to for Thanksgiving because I truly enjoy prepping all the food! 

4.  Since this months theme is Repentence, what does that mean in your life?
Ahh repentence. Isn't it such an interesting idea in our Christian culture?Repentance to me is summed up in 2 Corinthians 5:17, "Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come." If we are made new in Christ than we have to turn away from our old life because He has given us a new one! 

5.  what song have you had on repeat lately?
I have been listening to a lot of hymns that have been modernized lately. Especially songs like Come Thou Font from All Sons and Daughters. So good!

6.  If you could travel anywhere this fall, where would you go?
While everyone's excited for crisp fall weather, I'm ready to hope on a plane to Arizona because I'm not quite ready to let go of warm weather!



7. What's on your fall reading list?
I just finished reading Blog Inc. and now I'm looking to start another blogging book. They're so fun to read because it's basically all my pins I've saved on Pinterest in one place! Anyone recommend any good ones?

    I am seriously the opposite of why I love Thanksgiving! I love family and good food but I am TERRIBLE at cooking! Love this Q&A! :) I love both blogs, thanks for sharing!

Four Tips for Creating Community through Blogging

1. Reach out to other bloggers:  this is an  essential when wanting to get into community. It can be as small as a comment on their blog, or an email. I have built relationships with other bloggers through email, commenting on their blogs, etc. For me it has been a beneficial thing, to create community in something that I really didn't know there was any.   This is a great post on why bloggers need community.  2. Join a blog group on Facebook, or some other social media group: I have joined the Peony Project on facebook which is a group for other christian bloggers. It's a great group and i would definitely recommend it!  3. Make meaningful comments: when I say meaningful comments I don't mean that you have to write a novel, but at least engage with the post somehow. Check out Madison's post on how to comment on blogs to find out more.  4. Plan a blogger Meetup : If you there

Blogging Goals 2015

It's a New Year and with that brings a new season of blogging.  I can't believe it's been two years since we started this blog. It's grown so much, and  I am excited to see where it goes this year as we continue to grow and change. This year I have some exciting new content in store for you all, which i will explain in more detail below. 1. Around The Table Linkup: This is a linkup that I am personally really excited about. It's going to be a linkup where there's a theme for each month, but I may do some months without a theme. Anyway, each month me and my co-host will share a recipe that we use to create community around our tables. And you will have a chance to link it up! I am currently booked with co-hosts until October, but I am looking to fill November and December. So if you are interested email me at: britney.thequietplace@gmail.com and I can give you more information. 2. Blogging Tips: I would like to start posting some blogging tips this year,

Being Content

Content, As christian women we here that word more times than we can count, especially in a season of waiting. Content is defined as,   pleased and satisfied : not needing more.  Have you been in a season in your life where your feel like you are just waiting? Waiting for a new job, waiting for things to get better, waiting for marriage, etc. Whatever you are waiting for, sometimes it just seems like it's taking forever just like a long line at the grocery store.  When I think about being content, my thoughts instantly go to being content in my singleness. How many times have we heard the cliche lines like "just wait, God's got it" said by well meaning people, only to make you feel worse. There was a time in my life where it was so hard to hear all of those lines without just wanting to cry, because like I said it made me feel worse rather than better.  That is when I would get discontent in waiting,  sometimes I feel like i am in this never-endin
