Bling and a Bloggy Giveaway

You know, don'tcha, that we're right in the middle of a 2-part Giveaway. You can read about it here. And here. You just need to remember to get your questions (the sky's the limit, and one question=one Giveaway entry!) in to moi by Friday at 11:59 EST. If you're reading this now, you can just leave a question or two in the comments section of this post. So, Get Poppin'!

I'd also like to give a quick but thoughtful Shout Out! to Blogstalker, who--and I'm sure we can all agree on this one--gives all our Bloggy Lives new meaning. With incisive--and sometimes mysterious--analysis, Blogstalker cuts through the Cyber Chatter and Gets. Right. To. The. Point.

Which brings me to my point, which is this. Blogstalker recently bestowed some Bloggy Bling on my little ol' head. And I'd like to thank my Bloggy Friend from the bottom of my Digital Heart!

The honor, deemed the Arte y Pico Award, literally translates to "Art Peak." The Stalker, it seems, thinks my little ol' place is "creative and interesting." Well, thank ya kindly! And in the tradition of all Good Things, I am required to pass this precious piece o' hardware along. Here first, though, are the rules:

1. Choose 5 blogs that you consider deserving of this award based on creativity, design, interesting material & overall contribution to the blogger community.
2. Post the name of the author & a link to his or her blog so everyone can view it.
3. Each award winner has to show the award & put the name & link to the blog that has given him or her the award
4. The award winner & presenter should post the link of the "Arte y pico" blog so everyone will know the origin of the award.

So, I choose:

• Channah, at Get a Grip, Mom!
• Mannequin, at Fractured Toy.
• Adiel, at It's Because I Think Too Much.
• Lynda, at Art on a Limb.
• Lula, at Lulaville.

Thanks for making my Bloggy Life, at least, both creative AND interesting!

Pop'rs in Action

Marla was one of September's Great New Pop'rs Giveaway winners. She and her family recently tried out her new prize, and guess what? They got Poppin' right away!

Let's let Marla, of Pak Adventures, explain: "Remember a few weeks back...I was on a winning streak... I won Pop'rs from Veggie Mom! Well, check out the reaction I got from some 7-year-old boys... they first tried it on pizza (taco flavor) and then wanted to try a fruit flavor... I let them do a shot...which is NOT what it is intended for... but it made for a good video..."

Marla's enjoying her 8-pack of Pop'rs, and You. Can. Too! Just enter October's Great New Pop'rs Giveaway. It's really easy and fun to play along, and we'll have Six. Winners. This. Time!

What do you win? Five Bloggy Friends will each win their choice of two flavors of Pop’rs, the good-for-you seasonings that make eating veggies fun! One Bloggy Friend will win the Grand Prize—a complete set of Pop’rs, that tasty and fun seasoning that really encourages kids to Eat Their Veggies! Pop’rs, which come in eight flavors, add great flavor, and fun, to just about any kind of food, from applesauce to yogurt and beyond. Pop’rs, which are only available from Uncle Lynn online, have an added kick--as the name implies, they go POP! when you eat them.

Remember, friends, this is a 2-parter. We're also celebrating my 100th Post, which occurs on Saturday, so here's what you do:

1. To enter October's Great New Pop'rs Giveaway, readers must post questions that they want to ask Veggie Mom (That's Me!), Aunt Julie, Uncle Lynn, or anyone else over at Eat Your Veggies! This is Phase One of the Giveaway. Readers get One Giveaway Entry for every question they post. There is no limit to the questions you may ask! Veggie Mom will collect questions from today through 11:59 p.m. EST on Friday, September 26, so make sure to get your questions in! I will answer all readers’ questions on Saturday, September 27—which happens to be my 100th Blog Post—and Sunday, September 28.
2. Starting Monday, September 29, Phase Two of the Giveaway begins! Uncle Lynn, The Pop'r King, will award Giveaway Prizes to One Giveaway Finalist Each Day, through Friday, October 3. He will announce the Grand Prize Winner in a post right here on Saturday, October 4. Giveaway Finalists will each receive two Pop'rs flavors of their choice. The Grand Prize Winner will receive a complete set of Pop'rs--all eight flavors!

So, there you have it Pop'rs Fans! No, you don't have to make a video--but it makes for an extremely interesting post, doesn't it?
