http://www.amazon.com/Saving-Grace-Serve-Protect-Wilson-ebook/dp/B003ZYEXGA/ref=sr_1_1?s=digital-text&ie=UTF8&qid=1388342168&sr=1-1&keywords=saving+grace+norah+wilsonAfter wrecking her car and waking in hospital with amnesia, fledgling reporter Grace Morgan has no idea why she’d been in the process of leaving the husband she loves so dearly. Her husband, Police Detective Ray (Razor) Morgan tells her she was leaving him for another man, but that just can’t be so. Can it? She’s determined to remember, even if it kills her. And it just might. When bullets start to fly, Ray is forced to take the wife he believes faithless on the lam until they can figure out who is trying to kill them.


 



http://www.amazon.com/Picture-Perfect-Weddings-Design-Book-ebook/dp/B00AHY0RTIFeisty wedding photographer Hannah McDermott has dealt with her share of difficult brides. But none can compare to the ultimate Bridezilla she's dealing with now. Still, she's trying desperately to impress Bella Neeley, Galveston Island's most sought-after wedding planner, so she can take the top spot in Bella's list of recommended photographers--a spot currently occupied by her arch-rival, Drew Kincaid. What she doesn't count on, however, is falling head over heels for the competition.

With her contagious humor and cast of quirky characters, Janice Thompson gives readers more of the bridal business drama they want in a brand-new series all about those long-suffering people who make beautiful weddings happen. Readers are desperately waiting for more of Bella and this new series brings her back in a big way, while introducing new characters fans will love. Fans will laugh out loud as they experience this breezy and entertaining novel from a great storyteller.


 




http://www.amazon.com/Mommy-Little-Flask-Imperfection-Series-ebook/dp/B00DHLITY8PUBLISHERS WEEKLY REVIEW: Turner is back and better than ever in this comedic sequel to This Little Piggy Went to the Liquor Store, as reliably honest and zany storytelling conveys both joys and trials of parenthood. Turner, an Idaho mother raising two young daughters, has an opinion on everything, including buffets (they bear responsibility for "what's wrong with this country"); writers' retreats and how to measure the quality of someone's writing by how much he or she talks about it ("excessive babbling" is an "attempt to compensate for crippling insecurity"); and a parenting technique she calls "Willful Denial of Fact." Vignettes range from botched chemical peels, her children's Mandarin classes, endeavors to use a Slip ‘n Slide, and six months in Mexico with the in-laws. Readers will be pleased to see familiar characters reprise their roles from Turner's first book, such as brother-in-law Virgil, who tells everyone that Turner's father is Dean Koontz, "the guy who wrote The Shining." Turner's unapologetic confessional is easy to relate to, and she succeeds in finding humor and entertainment in even the most mundane trials of motherhood


http://www.amazon.com/Gotta-mystery-romance-Cottonmouth-Series-ebook/dp/B00688GE7Q?tag=bookbubemailc-20Dumped? For her husband’s high school sweetheart he hasn’t seen in twenty years? Roberta Jones Spivey isn’t going to lay down for that. Instead, she reinvents herself and the new Bobbie Jones—new haircut, new name, new attitude—follows her soon-to-be ex to the small Northern California town of Cottonmouth.

What better way to show him—and his sweetheart—what he’s missing in the brand new Bobbie Jones than taking up with the town’s local bad boy—who’s also reputed to be a serial killer. Nick Angel is devilishly handsome and sexy as all get-out. In a word, perfect.

It’s all going exactly according to plan...until a real murder rocks the little town of Cottonmouth. Of course, Nick didn’t do it...did he?

Bacon Wrapped Jalapeno Poppers ~ #Recipe Tested & #Reviewed


I decided that for NFL Gameday on Sunday I would make some of these delicious looking Bacon Wrapped Jalapeno Poppers. They only had a few ingredients so I figured how difficult could it be right? And what could be better than cream cheese, jalapenos and bacon?

Ingredients
  • 1 pound jalapeno peppers
  • 8 ounces cream cheese
  • 1 cup shredded cheese Cheddar or Mexican blend
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce

  • 1 to 2 pounds bacon

WINNER, Winner Chicken Dinner!!

 

 Congratulations to Kimberly!!

I would like to say "Thank You!" to A Mommy's Blog Design for offering up this prize of a premade blog template of the winner's choice for either Blogger or Wordpress.

The sad part is that I had to have Rafflecopter pick five winners before I actually got a TRUE winner. The first four names drawn said that they completed the MANDATORY entry of leaving a blog comment when in fact they did NOT. And you know what the worst part about that is? Three out of those four names are well known names to me because they are bloggers who run regular giveaways. Needless to say, I was disappointed.

Wordless Wednesday - Makes You Wanna Go Hmmmmm!

I know that it is Wordless Wednesday but I feel as if this picture needs a little explanation. You see, we were driving down the freeway and the sign that we saw right before this one said RIGHT lane closed ahead, so all off the traffic was getting into the Left lane. At this point both lanes are still open....

Are We Saying What We Really Mean In The Blog World?

I am always trying to come up with a subject for a blog post. Well while I was over checking out things over on Sverve this morning I came across a blog called Kludgy Mom and her blog post called "Idea Bank: Your Source For Writing Prompts" and it was about 600 Brilliant Blog Post Ideas. That is when the not so bright light bulb in my head went off and decided to just pick a number and scroll down and do a blog post on that idea, no matter what it was.

Well, I picked number 326 and here was the idea:

Check Out My New Look and #WIN A New Look For Your Blog!!


I have been wanting to change the look of my blog for sometime now, but I have just been too lazy to do it. Until I was approached by April from A Mommy's Blog Design, she must have thought that I really needed an update also because she contacted me about doing a review of one of her Premade Templates and a doing a giveaway of one. All I could think of was, is she in my head or what? I had even been looking around on that big ole World Wide Web for some templates but I really couldn't find any social media icons that I liked. I actually have a program that I could design my own in but I definitely do not have the time or patience for that right now.

FAGE Total Greek Yogurt #Review

Who is FAGE?

Back in 1926, Athanassios Filippou opened a small dairy shop at 213 Patison Street in Athens, Greece. But this wasn’t the hustling, bustling Athens of today. The shop was located in the countryside with only a single train station nearby. As travelers would come and go, the reputation of the shop’s delicious, creamy, one-of-a-kind yogurt grew. As he nurtured the business with great care and passion, Athanassios brought his sons Ioannis and Kyriakos into the business and named it FAGE (pronounced “fa-yeh”).

Are You Looking For A Fundraiser Idea? Check This Out!! Teespring Review!

Teespring - Providence, RI

Teespring

Create & Sell Custom T-Shirts with Zero Upfront Costs



I just had the opportunity to check out Teespring, a website where you can design and create your own t-shirts, set the price and choose the time period that you would like to sell the shirts. Then after the selling period, Teespring ships all the shirts directly to the customers with no hassle to you. How awesome is that?

Teespring is a great site for those who are looking for a fundraising ideas. Say you are trying to raise money for a 4-H group or a Senior trip. Or say you have a child in your family that has cancer and you are raising money for the family's expenses while the child is in the hospital. Teespring is great for these types of fundraising causes. You can check out some of the past campaigns here. There are no out of pocket expenses and no upfront costs.

Now, I suppose you would like to know how Teespring does this right? Well, here is the gist of it. You hop over here to Launch a Campaign and start designing a t-shirt. After your shirt is completely designed, you set a price and how many shirts you would like to sell. Then you write a brief campaign description and then share your campaign via Facebook, email or however you would like to share it. Everyone can go in and place their orders for ever how many they want and in the sizes they want. Now, you have to sell the minimum that you specify when you are preparing your campaign but you can sell as many over that as you can. The more you sell the more money you raise for your cause. If by chance you don't sell the minimum that you specified then no one gets charged anything and the whole thing is cancelled. This is why you get your shirts at the cheapest prices possible and there are no upfront costs.

Here is a video for you that may help you understand it a little better.


I have went in a played with the t-shirt creator and I have to say that it is very easy to do. I even uploaded my own picture to see how easy it all was to do and that too was simple. You can even have the kids design shirts for their clubs like the Scouts and 4-H, that is how easy it is to use.

Here are a couple of shirts that have been designed and sold thru Teespring and if you click on the shirts, you can see the campaigns that went along with them.



 
 

So, if you know anyone who is looking for a fundraising idea make sure your share Teespring with them.
