Blogging From A to Z April Challenge 2016: THEME REVEAL

Good Morning Cookies,

      It's been a minute since the last time that I've posted. I'm sure that the lack of posts have rendered this, otherwise vibrant and fun space, appear forgotten and abandoned. Abandoned...Temporarily -*Okay, a lot 'temporarily' time lapse*. Forgotten....Never that!- *Despite the way it looks...because looks can be deceiving, Cookies*. 

      I kinda of chalked it up to 'blogger's block'. So what better way to get back into the game, than an exciting blog challenge?


                                             Enter...
                                   *drum roll please*-

               the 'Blogging From A to Z April Challenge 2016'.

 

                            What? Say you is the 'A to Z Challenge 2016'?

   It all started in March of 2010 when  Arlee Bird, the wonderful blogger over at Tossing It All Out and creator of this inspirational quest challenged her then, 200 new blogger-friends, to an April blogging challenge - blogging everyday, except Sunday.  To up the annie,  the posts had to be thematically from A to Z.   That year 100 bloggers not only took part in the challenge, but passed the word on to other blogger friends. Who told blogger friends.... who told blogger friends... who told - *You get the picture* - to the tune of 1300 bloggers taking the challenge, one year later!

    Three years ago,  Mina Lobo, an A to Z blogger, added another twist to the challenge by introducing the notion of blogging with a theme.  And the Blogging from A to Z April Challenge 2016 - 

                                     Theme Reveal was born!

A to Z Challenge Theme Reveal 3-21-2016


The #AtoZChallenge Theme Reveal gives the blog challenger the " ... great opportunity... to jump start ... the A to Z experience ... [by linking] up with fellow bloggers, scout[ing] out and bookmarking[ing] themes... and lur[ing] in wandering participants with your awesome theme..."


Without further ado.... 

My Blog Theme  for the A to Zchallenge is ....

*DRUM ROLL PUH-LEEEZE*

  A twenty-six day visual romp of
S.imply T.remendous U.nderstated F.abulous F.un! ... 
because sometimes words are too much....

 TWO YEARS!!

 It seems like just yesterday that I was posting the first blogaversary.
At the start of this journey I wanted to have a space to put thoughts, musings and pretty things. 

 And, despite not spending as much time here this year as I wanted, this space has remained a welcomed space for my thoughts, musings and all that is pretty. 

Thanks for your company these last two years and let's raise our glasses to twelve more months of interesting thoughts, exciting musings and loads of pretty things.

{Casual} Kicks....

I found these {luv}-lies on my continued 'blog stroll'. Aren't they 'cat's meow?'. Okay, you have to understand...I drool over everything shoes! These little ditties will be my next buy. I am {hearting} the clean line, fresh look and the comfort & ease of mesh {so-o-o-o cool}.
Glad that I turned onto
For Me, For You, otherwise, I might have missed them.
These beauties are a result of a collaboration of
Arkitip, The Ace Hotel Palm Springs, Generic Surplus , and although they can be pre-ordered now, they don't ship until July... just in time to sport on the Fourth of July! One more bonus, these treasures come with a gem of a tote {oh la la, now I know that I'm in luv}

Reflection:: Last Week...

The saga of the neglected Blog...

Thank Goodness for 'scheduled' posting! Otherwise, my blog would have gone silent for the entire week. Here's what happened...
On Monday of last week {I think that that would have been 30 March}
my event management company was contacted by a publisher of a premier Bridal magazine {who was producing his 2nd annual Bridal Gala- one spectacular event that is greatly anticipated, not only by local and surrounding Brides, but, by many vendor as well} to participate in this very stylish extravaganza. My mission: design a tablescape for a first-time competition being held during this bridal gala!
...Here's the catch... the competition was in six days!!! ....I accepted!... {YIKES!!!}.

As every business owner knows, this is time when all of your well-cultivated networking is essential. So, frantically, I manned the phones, tapping into every vendor that I could possibly could- all the while, trying to devise a winning 'tablescape' concept. The remainder of the week was a whirlwind of vendor visits, product selections & purchase orders. ...Leaving no time for my new,best obsession...blogging!

Well, the long & short of it was... after a very exhilerating but exhausting week... my table was competition ready by the deadline. The final results {aka} The Winner? So far, none of us who entered the competition has received the oscar winning phrase---'and the winner is'. So I'll keep you posted.

But I said all of that to say....

I want to post the posts from last week that were neglected and did not make onto the 'scheduled publishing'list *bad blogger*:
Without further ado...

Recap of an {almost} blogless week ...

Bright Eye Candy

{origindal 'post' date of Tuesday 31 March}...

These delish candy treats are a 'doll' of a treat! Just thing to calm that insatiable sugar rush.

...And the Award goes to...

...ME!
My new BBF who resides over at Havenwood has awarded me with, not one, but two! blog awards. Now, I've seen these two awards around on my many 'blog strolls' and have stopped in to visit and even follow the recipients of these gracious awards- Havenwood being one of them. I am humbled and grateful for being chosen as an awardee.


{Profile picture from Havenwood}


The first award is the Sister Hood Award, created by Diane Rambles that recognizes blogs with an attitude of gratitude. Yep! That would be me!


and this second award is an award for bloggers who reach out to other bloggers in friendship and support. This has definitely been one of my blogging missions.
Like so many of these awards, it comes with a few rules...like the nomination of ten people, a link to the nominating blog spot , along with links to the nominated blog spots. Last, but not least, one must visit the new nominees, to inform them that they have been nominated. Whew! I think that these awards are a great way to discover & befriend new blogs and I have always been excited about visiting the sites of other awardees. My problem is that, there are far more than ten blogs that I find S{imply} T{remendous} U{nderstately} F{abulous} F{inds}. So, to make certain that I do not leave anyone out, I direct you to my list of :: '{S.T.U.F.F.} that Inspires Me' and to my list of Followers. Grab a cup of your favorite beverage and start anywhere your heart desires. They are all WINNERS!!
