My Little Mr. Martha Stewart & A Note About Blogger

September 15, 2011 by Angie 11 Comments

The other day I returned home from running some errands.
While I was gone, my 10 year old mixed up some cookie dough all by himself.
Peanut Butter Cookie Dough.
He used a recipe{from Martha Stewart}.
He measured out ingredients.
He cracked eggs.
Used the kitchen aid mixer.
Added another egg & some more flour when he thought it didn’t look right.
{Isn’t he a daredevil?}
 He cleaned up the mess.
Washed the dishes by hand.
Waited for me to get home to use the oven.
 Some day he will make some lucky lady a very happy girl.
And his kids will love him.
BLOGGER makes me want to cry.
Last week I wasn’t able to link to parties for a few days.
This week I cannot comment on some blogs.
I keep getting asked to sign in to blogger.
Then my comment comes up as anonymous, and I am asked to sign in again.
It just keeps going around and I can’t sign in.
This is super upsetting to me since I cannot give comments to my blogospere friends.
If you haven’t seen a comment from me lately….this is why. {Sad face}
I have started researching about this problem…I have read that others are having similar issues.
I researched a little and it seems that the problem doesn’t happen with pop-up comment boxes…only with those embedded in the page.
So I changed comments on my blog to a pop-up box.
It was also suggested to change to google chrome as a browser.
Does anyone have any advice?
I blog for fun and it’s sad to have to spend hours researching this problem.
I hope the people at blogger are working on it.

    I read about this on another blog and she said that you had to change some settings and tick a box somewhere and it should work (she didn't go into any more depth). I hope you work it out!! I love the fact that you blog too ♥

    He's so cute, Angie! And – were they delicious? : )

    I know you are wonderful at visiting and leaving comments. When I don't "see you around" I just figure you're busy, but I've been hearing about this issue again and I don't understand why this is a problem for blogger. I hope they get it fixed, too, because I'm sure it is frustrating when you want to leave a comment and can't.

    Since Blogger is a Google product and based on your Google account, I would try logging completely out of Google (iGoogle, Gmail) and then log back in from Blogger and take a look at your settings as someone else suggested. They've been tinkering with the Blogger interface, which often means other changes under the hood that you can't readily see.

    Hi Angie,

    Your son is adorable:D

    I stopped using Blogger because no one could make comments. I tried all kinds of different things. Since I've gone back to working full time blogging isn't happening right now but when I do it again I'm going to try WordPress.

    Love your posts! Good luck trying to resolve this issue.

    Hi Angie,

    Thank you for the nice comment back… 😉

    I have had the same problem with commenting… I was told to use Google Chrome and it would take care of it. I don't really understand how Google Chrome works as I can't set it as my home page, BUT I did download it onto my computer and since then, I have had no problems at all… I can't tell you why or how, and I never use Google Chrome, but fortunately, it has worked. You might give it a try; I don't think it will hurt anything.

    I'm sure you're proud of your Mr. Martha! 🙂 And by the way, my husband was fishing at Lake La Ronge. We also went up into Canada from Glacier National Park, it is just beautiful there! 🙂

    Good luck with "commenting" and enjoy your weekend!

    What a cutie pie! Literally! Even without baking the cookies. You can certainly see the pride on his face. I'm most impressed with the fact he even cleaned up! LOL

    About Blooger, I haven't had problems recently myself, but I have had all those problems you mentioned in the past. Pain! Hopefully it's worked out for you by now.

    Angie,
    Marty @ A Stroll Thru Life helped many of us with this problem a while back. Here's what we did:
    1) log out of Blogger.
    2) Log in to blogger …
    after you type in your password, there's a box that states…Stay signed in.
    3)UNclick that box.
    You should be able to use the Google Account and leave your comment now!
    Hope it works for you…it worked for me. If so…stop by and thank Marty!
    Fondly,
    Pat
