Bridget over at Mint Green With Envy features product reviews and giveaways. Reviewed goodies include household products, cosmetics, purses, scarves, and jewelry. If you're in the mood for a good contest, this is the place to go.
I've mentioned this blog before, but in case you happened to miss it, Silver Savings and Freebies is another fun place to read a review and enter a drawing. Candles, cosmetics, and even vinyl wall decals are some of the recent offerings.
Another favorite fun blog is the Giveaway Lady. Here you will find reviews and giveaways galore. Stop by and see what blog host Charity has to say about everything from books, cosmetics, storage containers, and beyond, plus links to other great contests and goodies.
Writing Straight From the Heart is Susan Wicker's lovely blog that features posts about art, collectibles, and a whole lot more. Susan's photos and commentary add a little thought provoking fun and culture to my blog roll.
What have you been doing for fun lately?
Blessings to you, and Happy Writing!
Hi Karen it is always interesting to find out which other sites fellow bloggers like to visit. It makes blogging a little bit more personal. Thank you for sharing. Have a good day. Bless you. xxx
ReplyDeleteI'll have to check out those links. Hmm, for fun. I had fun writing my post today. I made myself laugh. :D

We had a weekend break from winter weather. I made sure I got outside to soak up some sunshine. I took nice long walks on both days.
ReplyDeleteThis morning the rain has moved back in and the snow is coming behind it. But the songs of the birds and the warmth of the sun are still in my head.
Raymonde,
ReplyDeleteI agree. When I have time, I like to explore other blogs and such. Have a great day!
Blessings,
Karen
Wendy,
ReplyDeleteI'll have to pop over to check out what made you laugh!
Thanks for coming by,
Karen
Cassandra,
ReplyDeleteHere in north central KY we had spring like weather on Sunday too. But it looks like it will be back to winter. That's okay, it'll be spring before we know it!
Blessings,
Karen
Hi Karen,
ReplyDeleteI had a wonderful weekend of writing on Saturday! I'm battling a cold now--guess it's that time of year! But I'm still planning to keep plugging away at my WIP.
Have a wonderful day!
Jody,
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear you got some writing done! Thanks for coming by.

Hello Karen...I want to thank you SO MUCH for mentioning Writing Straight From the Heart on your blog. You are so sweet to do that! I really, really appreciate that so much. Hope more people will come to visit. Have a wonderful day, Karen. Love your blog! Warmly, Susan
ReplyDeleteThanks for the links! I will be checking them out!
ReplyDeleteWe have been having warm weather here in South Texas so I have been outside a bunch with my kiddos!

Hi Karen -
ReplyDeleteThanks for the links. I love freebies and giveaways.
I've been reading Julie Klassen's excellent book, "The Silent Governess." With my computer down, I actually have serious reading time. :)
Blessings,
Susan
Susan R.,
ReplyDeleteYou are welcome! Hope that you find something you like there:)

Cool links! I'm barely keeping my head above water, does that count as fun? At least I'm not dead yet, right? Right. :)
ReplyDeleteGreat links Karen. Thanks for sharing. They sound positively lovely.
ReplyDeleteAnd I received my book last week. The chapter, Coming Home to Carry Me Home, chapter 12, I believe was my favorite. I love hearing other believers say that an angel comes to get us. I have always believed that.
Thanks so much for having the contest. =)
Elana,
ReplyDeleteKeeping your head above water is at least better than not. Maybe you can get some fun in next week:)
Thanks for coming by!
Karen
Robyn,
ReplyDeleteGlad that you received and liked the book! Thanks for dropping in,
Karen
I've been listening to new music and eating Cadbury mini-eggs. Tis' the season!
ReplyDeleteJill,
ReplyDeleteYes, well Cadbury mini eggs - don't need an excuse to eat them! And they fall into the fun category, that's for sure!:)
Blessings,
Karen
Those sites sound fun!
ReplyDeleteI ate chocolate chip cookie dough and watched several episodes of Project Runway in a row. *grin*
Jessica,
ReplyDeleteChocolate chip cookie dough - sounds great!
Thanks for coming by.
Blessings,
Karen
Thanks for stopping by my blog again Karen. You are a faithful commenter:) Hopefully I will be having more giveaways going on soon. I have had several authors who have agreed to do some giveaways. I know you will be there:D
ReplyDeleteHave a great evening!!
Charity,
ReplyDeleteThanks for coming by. I always enjoy stopping by your blog, and today's contest was a fun one. Of course I'll be there for the authors' giveaways!
Blessings,
Karen
Let's see, fun, huh? Does sleeping count?
ReplyDeleteSalad bar at Ruby Tuesday last week with my DH--that was fun.
Thanks for asking!
Jeanette,
ReplyDeleteYes, I think sleep counts as fun, especially when you need it. Ruby Tuesday's is great too! And someone I know will be going out west soon...that should be fun:)
Blessings,
Karen
Wow, there are just way too many good blogs out there. ;) One could spend an entire day going from one to the next.
ReplyDeleteThanks for putting these up!
Oh, and as to fun...Olympics! My only problem is finding someone to watch with me. I've got to have someone there to say, "Can you believe what that Ice Dancer is wearing?!" to. ;)
No wonder people flock to this blog. Great questions. Great info.
ReplyDeleteGreat writer's voice.
Hmmm. Fun? Went to Chicago by the train yesterday. Did not get what I went for but with friend Chanel by my side, took pictures, laughed, pretend shopped (in those designer stores where I don't belong) and had a great lunch and coffee!!! Fun! Sigh. Now back to reality.
Emily,
ReplyDeleteI know, there are a ton of great blogs out there! You could get lost on the internet. The Olympics have been fun to watch, but I know what you mean. Each time I've watched any figure skating I've been alone. No one to critique it with. Maybe we can set up a phone conference and watch it together!:
Thanks for coming by,
Karen
Patti,
ReplyDeleteThanks! You're making me blush:) Sounds like you had a fun day. So you pretend shop too, huh? My hubby is from the Chicago area; maybe someday we can come up there and do some pretend shopping and bump into you:)
Blessings,
Karen
Hey, Karen. Thanks for the great links. I wish I could report some fun to you. Maybe next week. I've battled quite a cold/flu this past weekend and I've been working A LOT! Okay, I did get to celebrate one of my dearest friend's birthday yesterday. That was fun! And I went sledding last week. I never do that.
ReplyDeleteHeather,
ReplyDeleteYou are welcome! Sorry to hear that you weren't feeling well. Glad to hear that you had a little bit of fun:)
Blessings,
Karen
