Up next is the fabulous, Rylee Blake Greening.
I met Rylee for a minute a looooong time ago when she was friends with my bother-in-law, and she is currently in the process of helping me out with a mini design re haul over here at LoveChugs.
I was re-introduced to her via another darling blogger, Michelle Cope.
Michelle popped up with an adorably designed blog one day, and gave all the credit to a girl named Rylee Blake. The name sounded familiar, so I hoped on over to her site, RBG.
I was happy to see that is was the same Rylee I had met way back when, although now she's married to the cutest 'brown man', as she likes to say, I've ever seen, with an awesome dog and blog to document it all.
[see what I did there? ha ha]
Rylee is a go-to blog for me because she puts everything she learns out there....she doesn't hoard her knowledge about design tips, or best yet, music play lists. When I became a mom I feel like I gained so much, except for in the music department. That area started lacking....and fast. I didn't have the time, or freely available hands to search for new music like I used to, and Rylee does all this for me now. Without fail, every one of her 'mixtapes' becomes my new fave.
AND! [yes, there is actually more...] On top of all this, I think Rylee's best quality is her voice...I can actually hear it when she writes. I laugh at her funny sayings and feel like I'm her BFF without ever hanging out.
I could go on and on, but I guess I'll be like LaVar Burton from Reading Rainbow and end with,
"...but you don't have to take my word for it."
hey peeps! I’m rylee blake and that handsome brown man is my darling, Vaughan. when I first started my blog it was just to keep my mum updated while I was away at college. at least, that was my excuse. I’ve always been a writer and blogging is a way for me to document my ambiguous life. from being hit by car in Ecuador to falling in love with my Polynesian babe, not only is my blog a place to liberate but it’s also a place where I unexpectedly started my career! you see, I once saved all my money to have a professional graphic designer give my blog a face-lift. I paid home girl $400 bones (I’m cringing as I type this) and I ended up changing it after a couple months! It wasn’t worth the money and I decided that I would learn how to do blog design and the coding all on my own. so after loads of brutal Google searching and with some help of my techy world of warcraft experience I was finally able to figure it out and start designing myself! this past year I’ve had the opportunity to design for other bloggers and to share all my knowledge by posting free tutorials. so, if you have questions about design or are interested in my services feel free to come over and visit yet another newlywed blog.
there is no us without others. grazie for sharing great gals who blog.

P.S. This is my first comment on your blog but I've been an avid follower for quite some time now. In fact, it's your blog that introduced me to this incredible community of writers. So, thanks for that. & thanks for being so raw, so real, and more than anything, so relatable. I can't tell you how much I truly enjoy sitting down to read your posts.
