Any advice for this blogger.

The background is a little too dark, for the post its ok but for the side bar the wording are black so it a little difficult to read it.

It is cute! One thing I would do is put up a custom logo where the site title is...you can look up how to do that on wordpress codex if you are using wordpress. You can either design something in free software like serif draw or even run a javascript file that would change the header font to make it look more unique. I would also maybe consider moving the sidebars to the right instead of on the left - but that's just me maybe. The far left sidebar seems to have way too much stuff in it - I'd maybe take out the feedjit widget. Just some thoughts, remember though it's your blog, so ultimately its important what you like the best. I've got 7 sites and just redid one of my again for the 4th time last night, so it's a trial and error process that takes awhile! Good luck!

The design is nice, but the text under the tabs is impossible to read. You need to make sure that all text has good contrast against the background. If you're going to stay with the dark background (which is fine as long as you have plenty of bright color to offset it) you might also make the text a bit larger for easier reading.
