Again thank you very much to everyone who did the 1940's challenge or wrote 40's related posts, I've loved reading them!
I've really loved being able to share my love of the 40's with all you guys, and was very glad to find out that I am not alone:)
Now, encouraged by that thought, I can promise you that this isn't the last 40's oriented post you will see on this blog - At the very least there will be lots of movie reviews when I get around to watch all the movies you recommended.
Yay! I loved your theme week--I hope you do more in the future! Congratulations on a successful celebrations of the 1940s.

ReplyDeleteBut OH! Looking back at your kick-off post, I realized that I had forgotten that my post should have been one of the challenge posts you listed! I completely forgot about that and I am very sorry. :( I guess it still "works" because you listed my post, but I'm sorry all the same. :/
It was such a lovely week, though, and I can't wait to finish reading your posts. :) Thank you again!!!
I'm glad you liked it, Natalie!

ReplyDelete*coughs* Ummmm.... also a slight oversight on my part. ;P For some crazy reason I was thinking the party actually went through today (i.e. Monday), so I had one last post I was going to do. :) If I get it up later today can I leave the link for you to add anyway? It'll fit in super well! :P
You're welcome, Heidi. I'm so glad you enjoyed it:)

It's totally up to you about adding the link, but I DID completely write it for the party. I was thinking about it all last week and... Things Just Happened. ;D Anyhow, I hope you like it!! :)
Thanks for hosting this, Rose! It was a fun week, and I've added some titles to my TBW list too :-)
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you liked it, Hamlette!
DeleteIt's always nice to expand you TBW list, mine has at least been doubled this week;)
ROSE!
ReplyDeleteSorry I wasn't able to comment during the actual 40s week, but I have to say--I read all of your posts and I enjoyed them all very much! Surprisingly enough, you almost won me over to change from a 50s girl to a 40s girl like you. Almost, being the word. :D I escaped with my 50s favorites but not by much. Haha!
Thanks for all the work you put it!! It was so much fun to read!!

I'm so glad you liked the posts, Cordy!
DeleteAnd I almost won you over? Impressive!
But don't count yourself safe - it took me a couple of months to become a complete 40's girl, so it can happen to you yet;)
Oh my goodness!!! I am SO glad I found this blog! Although I'm heartbroken I missed the forties week!! <3
ReplyDeleteI am so glad you stopped by, Sophia:)
DeleteAnd don't worry there are still many 40's themed posts to come on this blog:)
