What do YOU Want to Read About? It's A How Bourgeois Poll!

Dear web-ish friends,

It was exciting to see that 975 of you stopped by How Bourgeois today for a little read! Thank you soooo much for coming. I can't tell you how happy that makes me. I'm flattered and elated that you'd take the time to visit!

If I could,  I'd ask you to pull up a chair and have a slice of cake and a cup of coffee with me. THEN I'd ask you for advice.



But I can't have REAL coffee with you, because alas, this is the internets after all.
Anywho- I have a quick question for YOU!  If anyone would be so obliged to participate in the little, two-second poll that I made below, it would be very much appreciated!  :)

Here is the question......
What kinds of posts and content do you come to How Bourgeois most often to read!?

This might sound like a slightly strange question, but lately, I've felt like How Bourgeois is a whole jumble of different "types" of posts. I whole- heartedly believe that variety is the spice of life and I have no plans to only publish one kind of writing from now on, but what I would like to do is provide more content in the topic areas that  many of you might be visiting for!

For example, How Bourgeois began as a "Baby Blog", a way to keep in touch with family as Noah grew.  I still enjoy writing posts revolving around our everyday life. I also sometimes write about cooking and DIY. You might be here alternatively for information on gray hair. That's how I've met so many of you, my lovely readers! Also I have a great time writing humorously (at least to me) about things like anxiety. Ha! Because anxiety is SO funny. Ha. Yeah.....maybe not.... Not really. And sometimes, I get a little introspective and mushy. Like, mushy on the inside. My outside was already  mushy.

Sooooo...... if you wouldn't mind just checking off a circle and letting me know what your favorite thing to read about on How Bourgeois is, that would be fantastic! If you do enjoy more than one category, please let me know in the comment section.

Thank you so much my reader friends. You mean the world to me!!!!!!

Why can't you just do all of them? I saw nothing wrong with what your posting. It was a good mix between humor, introspection, informative-based, and family/friend updates. Don't change it!

There's nothing wrong with the content. I like it all. It's a great mix of informative, humorous, and instructional posts, as well as family/friend updates. Don't change or deviate from something that has been successful for you, Lauren.

Hiya Crazydaz!!!

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave a thoughtful comment. No worries AT ALL, I'm not changing anything! :)
I will always keep my different kinds of posts. My aim though, is to add a bit more on one topic or another, if that is what people are looking for. For example, if a group of reader want more recipes, I'll add them!

Thank you very much for your readership, and your comments too!

Dear LRW,

Your comment was so nice. Thank you for your kind words. I'm glad that you stumbled upon my little corner of the internet. It's nice to meet you!

Thank you for mentioning my kitty. I am feeling much better, but last week was a month, and it feels like so much longer. I think of Priya often and keep her memories fresh in my mind. I'm determined not to forget anything about her!

Thanks again LRW!

xoxo,
Lauren :)
