Need your help with my blog description!

I finalizing all the elements for this blog with my designer and I'm hung up on my secondary copy line.  The blog title is staying the same - "Lather. Write.  Repeat.", but I'm struggling with the second line that sums up what the blog is all about. 

I've narrowed it down to a few options and I was hoping that you, my lovely readers, would be so kind as to weigh in on your favourite.  You read the blog, so you can give me that outside perspective I need!  I'm looking for the description that best sums up what you read and feel when you come visit me here.

Here are your choices...and if I've missed something you think would suit me better, please let me know!

Lather. Write. Repeat.

1 - A writer's blog about life and lovely things

OR

2. A writer's blog about the daily persuit of happiness

OR

3 - A collection of thoughts, pretty things and projects

OR

4 - A nest of creative ideas, thoughts and things
 

I can't wait to hear your thoughts!  Please share them with me...
 
Written with love,
Lenore

  1. I like number 3
    I was trying to put myself in the place of someone new to your blog reading for the first time and what would make me want to read on-
    I am a writer too yet I feel (personally) that it is redundant to say so- people are after all reading the words I write- I know that not all bloggers consider themselves to be writers but it is a gift and a talent and I think it is naturally there in all the bloggers I especially enjoy reading- hope that help!

  5. When I was in 5th grade our teacher took our entire class out to the sandlot and performed a funeral for the word "things" because she claimed it was a filler word that should be replaced with proper descriptive nouns. This was a very memorable moment from my childhood so I think I MAY be biased but I definitely prefer #2.

  6. I was drawn to #1 and #2 (with the typo fixed of course ;)

    I agree with what was said about 'writer' being redundant - but I also think that the internet is full of bloggers who are not necessarily writers, and the fact that you make your living as a writer is kind of special because not everyone else does or can. I think it's something to be celebrated.

  7. Hi Lenore - thanks for letting us in on this, what fun! I like #1 best. Maybe because I read it first, but I think it describes you and your blog so well.

  8. Thank you thank you thank you for all your feedback! You are fairly evenly split between 1 and 3 so now it's even harder to decide! But I must, so I will unveil the winning option with the new blog design (cheeky, I know).

  9. Is it too late to weigh in? I love #4, it sounds so whimsy and fun. Plus, you could incorporate a really cute nest graphic into your header?
