Ok, here goes nothing...

I'm completely new to blogging and the idea of my words being put down on paper (or screen) and read by people I don't know is a little disconcerting (clearly I'm not a writer), which I think makes me an unlikely blogger candidate.  But, it's always sounded fun, and I think it can help me accomplish a few goals, so here goes!

First of all, I'm trying to stay organized.  I love to crochet, I've recently started sewing, and I'm a newlywed with embarrassingly little cooking experience and a new apartment :)  I'm hoping I can blog patterns, recipes (lots of recipes), cleaning tips, and decorating ideas that I try or want to try... this'll keep them all handily together and organized for future reference.

Second, I hope this blog can eventually be useful and inspirational for others. I'm on pinterest a lot and I can tell you that at least half the brilliant ideas I find on there link directly to some creative person's blog.  So maybe one day, Beautiful Morning will encourage someone else who's trying desperately to figure out what to make for dinner!

Anyway, thanks for reading this and I hope this blog ends up fun and creative instead of boring and dull, which is how my writing compares to that of my sister's (check out her blog at www.howhappyisthelittlestone.blogspot.com if you want to laugh, cry, and snort at each and every post!)
