My friend Virginia over at That Bald Chick let me know about a campaign she is working on, and I thought it was pretty neat.  It is the Get Carded Challenge by Hallmark.  When I heard about it, I decided I want to take on the challenge myself!

My challenge was to send seven cards in seven days to seven people who are important to me!  I thought it would be a fun challenge to help me connect and reconnect with loved ones.

Today marks the release date of Christian music artist JJ Heller‘s latest album “Loved”.  There’s no better way to describe it than excellent music with pensive lyrics.  If you love music that carries a message, then this CD will appeal to you.

A number of songs stood out to me on the album.  The lead track “If You Fall” especially did.  It is a testimony to lasting relationships even when they are difficult to be a part of.

If you are looking for a place to buy great gifts, Red Envelope is an online place you might want to look at. I have purchased items from Red Envelope in the past and have been very happy with the quality of what I received.

I was able to buy a couple of more things last month from their online site. Here’s what I got:

First, I got the Mini Casserole Dish.

This post comes with an incredibly fun self-promotion of…ME.  Hey, I let you know ahead of time!

So since I got my iPhone, I’ve been a little obsessed with cases.  It’s fun to buy them in different colors and types, but even more so when you can personalize them any way you like.  One online shop I have a great time exploring for accessories for my iPhone is Zazzle.  They really have some unique and cute designs from the people that sell using the Zazzle storefront, or you can design your own.

Just in time for Easter, VeggieTales is releasing THE LITTLE HOUSE THAT STOOD, an all-new VeggieTales story premiering on DVD and available at Walmart (if you purchase it there you can receive an exclusive FREE 24 piece puzzle!) and other retailers. THE LITTLE HOUSE THAT STOOD is not only a delightfully funny new story but one that also teaches children valuable life lessons.

THE LITTLE HOUSE THAT STOOD reunites fans with popular VeggieTales characters including:

Did you know that Krill Oil is wildly good for you? Some of its benefits are that it can protect your heart, lower your cholesterol, fight PMS symptoms, combat inflammation, optimize your brain’s capabilities, fight aging AND boost your overall health and well being!

My husband has been taking Fish Oil pills for years to get that extra source of Omega 3 fatty acids. We’ve often seen Krill Oil pills on the shelves when purchasing the Fish Oil pills we buy for him, but have never taken the plunge to switch.

Crest and Oral-B Pro-Health FOR ME want to help make you the coolest parents of the year, by providing the opportunity to win a trip for two to Los Angeles to visit the set of the hit Nickelodeon show, Big Time Rush (BTR)!

Totsy has a fun sale happening right now for Stephen Joseph.

It’s only running until Friday 3/8/13 so get the deals while you can! Stephen Joseph has fun products such as rain gear, jackets, backpacks, school supplies and accessories and some items are up to 64% off! These are great for the upcoming spring weather or to put in Easter Baskets! But you have to hurry – because Totsy is a ‘flash sale’ site and when they sell out – you’re out of luck.

eShakti has launched a new collection of Spring garments on their website. The great thing about the clothing available on eShakti.com is that you can choose the item you want and then customize it to fit your measurements. I chose a top to review in a neutral color with a black ribbon print on it. The blouse is full of ruffles and is so gorgeous for spring and summer.

Our daughter loves Butterfingers, and it was a sad day in our home when she started orthodontic treatment that lasted almost 8 years in total where those crispety, crunchety, peanut-buttery, chocolaty treats were off limits in her mouth. But 8 years is nothing compared to the 90(ish) years that the Butterfinger candy bar has actually been around!
