Happy Monday, y’all! This past weekend was wonderfully productive, with my Hubby giving me pretty much the entire time to play catch-up. Woot Woot! Now that I’ve bragged on him for a minute, let’s take a look at today’s fabulous Blogger Spotlight: Something Swanky!



I first met Ashton (or at least her blog Something Swanky) when she was in charge of the Online BlogCon, and instantly it was on my list of regular visits. She’s such a talented recipe developer, and just look at those photos…yum! Ashton sent me a bit about herself:



Ashton is the owner and author of Something Swanky. Although first and foremost a wife and mother, she considers herself an online entrepreneur, freelance writer and photographer, and brand ambassador. Her focus is in food styling, food photography and recipe development.

Ashton publishes 3-4 unique dessert recipes each week, ranging from fanciful and creative to comfort food classics. She posts one “collection” post each week which includes links and thumbnail images to 50-100 themed recipes from other bloggers and around the web.

She’s such a cute gal, and I love the personality she shows in her posts. She’s one of the ladies on my list of ‘bloggers I hope to meet in real life’!
