B-A-R Members

B-A-R can stand for a lot of things:

The traditional watering hole

A Gold Bar

A bar of chocolate (YUM!)

Playing a few bars of music, perhaps?

Just like the word BAR’s various connotations,Blog-A-Rhythm is made up of a varied mix of bloggers. We come from far and near but are all united by this wonderful passion to write and share what we care about. Here, in a nutshell, is a bit about each of us at B-A-R, in our own words! We are a small but steadily growing community, so do hop back and check out our blogs when you can 🙂
