Hey, thank you for having a look at my site.
The top of the site that has that title saying CRUSHED CARAMEL (LEARNER AT LOVE).
In the left hand corner is a little box with me taking a selfie before a party to send to my sister because she had lent me the dress I was wearing. That button just brings you straight back to my static home page where you see “Introducing Caramel”.
However, in the right hand corner there are three dots. When you press that it opens up the full widgets showing my menus above.
I am fairly new to blogging so I am not sure of there is a better way to display the posts I have published. But so far, this has been alright.
Thank you for sending me a message. Hope you have a lovely day.

I have to admit to finding it a little difficult to find your ‘latest’ post myself. You might find it is easier to add an ‘Archives widget’ to your menu, that way anyone can look at any given month’s blogs from the time you first started writing them up to the current month. It just shows a list of all months you have written something and the number of posts you put up in that month in a clickable format. Clicking on a month lets the reader see all posts in that month!.(including the current one) 🙂
