Husband and I were talking about this with friends this weekend. Do you have a a place online that you frequent regularly–but that would surprise everyone to know about? (And no, I’m not talking about THOSE kind of websites. I’m a children’s librarian, for heaven’s sake! Please don’t spoil my innocence.)

My website confession was this one: the Wisconsin Almanac. I don’t farm, hunt, fish, or even take care of my yard very well. But every week, I find myself checking in to see how Wisconsin crops are doing (look!: manure hauling was slowed by wet weather last week, but apples and potatoes are in fine shape), what I should be doing to my lawn and garden (fertilizing and planting bulbs), and how the seasons are changing around me (salmon are slowing down, but spiders are active and “ballooning”–remember that scene from Charlotte’s Web?). I don’t do anything with this information each week (as, sadly, my lawn can attest), but I love perusing it and knowing the bigger picture of the world outside my window. And I keep coming back to it every week.

So…what’s your secret site?
