Spotlight Saturday 2.14 to 2.20.10
Here are FIVE of my favorite posts from the past week. Each week I will be highlighting some of my favorites. I have many blogs in my reader, as I have many friends with all different types of “niches” or “non-niches”. I will post serious stories, fun stories, pictures, recipes, etc. They will most likely be in a random order.
A post about domestic violence, child abuse, addiction, and adoption.
2. Hostess with the Mostess-Fairy Sweet Birthday Party
What little girl wouldn’t want a fairy party? This party was all planned by the little girl’s mother. With decorations, a toadstool cake, fairy wings, and pixie sticks. The photography makes everything pop and so memorable.
3. Ciaran Blumenfeld-Advocates, Enthusiasts, and Advertising: Bloggers on the Brandwagon
Ciaran talks about bloggers and promoting brands. Did you do a post because you just *liked” the product, was a it a review, or were you paid to post. She outlines the distinctions.
4. Scary Mommy-ChatRolulette-A Warning to Parents
Jill from Scary Mommy talks about a new website started by a 17-year old in Russia. This site accesses your webcam and projects you face-to-face with the world. What a perfect place for a pedophile to hide out in.
5. Coco’s Cuckoo World-Building Self Esteem. One kid at a time
Her kiddos Bram and Tess are always showing off fashion in their house. Courtney is always posting some HILARIOUS photos of them. A great post to make you smile.

I’m always thinking outside the box. You already know that about me.
Oh. Must go read your favorites from the week Julie : ) What a great idea!
Looked at all of them. Great picks.
I just checked out the Hostess with the Mostess site…Love it!!! How did I not know about this?
I have all kinds of great blogs saved. Just ask if you need any suggestions.
Isn’t that the greatest site. It gives me soooo many ideas.
Ha! When I first read this I thought it meant that you would highlight your 5 favorite posts… on YOUR blog. So if you were doing it once a week then at the end of the week you would highlight all but one of YOUR OWN posts. LOL! This is a great idea and I can’t wait to check em’ out!
Kara, you crack me up!!! Go to sleep!!!
I love this!! I keep meaning to do something similar, but like every other good intention, it only seems to happen in my head.
Thank you so much for including me– I’m honored to be in such good company!!
I always include my Jill. I thought of you today. They are talking about Chat Roulette on Good Morning America tomorrow. Dumb, Perez Hilton is always tweeting about that site too.
Love the favorites from the week. What a great way to pass along blogs! Might have to try this one for my site. (good way for me to remember what I liked too instead of them being stuck in a reader)
Hi Julie! Thanks for the SITS visit–thought I’d return the favor. I love your layout, and this is a FAB post idea. I’m looking forward to checking out what you’ve recommended.
Thanks for checking me out. I love to share linky love and sometimes you might find a new blog that you’ve never heard of, that you love.
Love this idea! Thanks for sharing your top picks!
Great idea Julie!
