The Results Are In


You're motivated, especially by the pictures.  So I'm glad to know you connect with my perspective found through the lens.  And now I'm motivated to buy a new Olympus camera I've had my eye on.

My pictures got top vote again, so I better get going on another photo outing!  And since you also want more on writing/publishing, I'm happy to share more of my book's journey. Stay tuned for Writing and Publishing posts ...


For the most part a latte perfection, and nobody thought it was a lukewarm experience.  Phew!

Thanks to everyone who participated, and for your thoughtful and kind survey comments too. I enjoyed reading them all.

Awesome! I love tuning in to your Latte Cafe!!!

Sharon said...

Joanne, this is excellent feedback. Honestly, I looked at the survey and couldn't choose just one answer in each category. I enjoy the overall experience of "Whole Latte Life," and even though I don't always comment I am always reading and thinking about what you've written.

Linda said...

Interesting to see how others think. It looks like a lot of people took the survey. I, for one, am very much looking forward to your new pictures with your new camera. I do think that has always been the theme of this blog...the inspiration and the pictures go hand in hand.

Mary - I've got a few ideas percolating, that's for sure. It was interesting to see how many people wanted more of that topic.

L.G. - Thanks, I was intrigued by how the different categories rated and it helps me to finetune what posts will run next.
