While looking for other blogs to read, I came across Amanda Explains It All. I usually don’t read other blogs. Since I’m new on WordPress, I already new there were going to be other blogs about health, nutrition, and fitness that were already established. I might as well see what else is out there. I don’t know how old her blog but she has a decent amount of posts.

There are a couple of things I love about the blog:

She is definitely all about holiday spirit. We are in October, and the it’s usually the month of the pumpkin. She gives recommendations about pumpkin flavored foods, that are healthy, not anything thats filled with insane amounts of sugar. She focuses on health which is what is important to me right now. I hope to see more recommendations from her so I can try some, I’m not really a fan of pumpkin though.

Also, throughout the blog Amanda manages to open up my eyes when it comes to some of the ingredients in certain things that we may consider healthy. She explains it in a way that really makes me not want to ingest some things, as I shouldn’t. For example, the second post that I read by her told us some ingredients that were found in water flavor add-ins. Sometimes you don’t want to drink plain, flavorless water. Sometimes you want a little flavor. But after reading this post you’ll  think twice.

The main thing that I don’t like is the design. It’s super hard to read. The background picture, mixed with the white text just doesn’t help the readability whatsoever. I literally have to squint my eyes to make out some of the words on the site. It’s kind of irritating to the eyes, but you can get through it. Aside from the design, everything else is good. I will keep up with her blog posts for sure!
