An Anniversary


Today marks the one year anniversary of creating this blog. A blogiversary? Oh my little blog. I love you.  Happy 1st birthday.

Never in a million years did I think Exquisite Banana would become such a huge part of my life. It's kind of crazy, actually. It started as a way to catalog all of the random bits I found interesting and has since morphed into so much more. Wow. This space has introduced me to incredible people, stories, inspirations and ideas. It feels a little strange to be getting emotional over a blog, but I am. It means a lot to me and I am proud of it.

Thank you, all of you, for reading. I can't wait to see where the next 365 days take us.
