I love social media, and I recently figured out why. I am kind of new to the "stay (work)-at-home mom" lifestyle. I think I use facebook and twitter as my substitutions for workplace conversations around the water cooler, etc. These communities of friends/followers serve as a work support group, in a way that friends from work used to serve. It is a wee bit addicting -- I'm working on ways to limit my time on these sights.

As for the blog comments -- I'm reltively new to blogging, and my subject matter (food, recipes) doesn't exactly generate that kind of discussion. Unfortunately. I think I'd welcome the interaction, but until I really expereince it I can't say for sure. 

Enjoyed your post!
