I can’t believe it’s been nearly two years since my last party! Sheesh, where does the time go? Anyway, pull up a chair and hang out with me! And, while you’re visiting, feel free to sample a “Blogging Betty,” a cocktail for all you blogging moms out there.
Blogging Betty, a recipe from “Blogging with Moxie” by the girls at Moxie Design Studios
- 6 oz chilled pink champagne
- half a shot of peach nectar
- drizzle of raspberry liqueur
- fresh raspberries
Using a chilly cold champagne flute, pour in the peach nectar and then the liquer. Fill to to the top with pink champagne and garnish with yummy fresh raspberries. For an even chillier treat, add in frozen raspberries!
Join me all week as I hand out more fabulous recipes and if you comment, I’ll add in you into a drawing for a personalized Mini-me, like the one to the left.
There are just too many cool prizes listed on The Ultimate Blog Party 2009 Prize Page. I want all of it. Really. I’d be happy with anything on the list. But, if I have to choose, the following piques my interest the most: 14, 57, 66, 111, INTL 36, USC 8.
Sunday Party Blog – Muffins for all! Take a moment just for yourself and have a muffin. Or two. Or three.

Hey, welcome to the blog party. I liked looking around your blog. I think your hubby might be on to something…I don’t know how WAHMs do it, honestly. Happy partying!

Hi and thanks! My hubby is a very smart man….and sometimes (okay, most of the time) he helps out a lot too. ; )

Sounds yummy! I wish I wasn’t preggo!

Maybe switch out the champagne for ginger ale and the raspberry liqueur for some raspberry syrup? Preggo women should be able to have (non alcoholic) cocktails too!

I have no idea how you manage to get any work done at home with kids around…and 3 kids at that! I can barely manage to juggle the house stuff with trying to do some preschool activities and keeping and eye on the kiddo! Chico to desert must’ve been quite a change!

Nice to meet you! Thanks for stopping by my blog, and to answer your question, my son was wearing Jack and Lily shoes, but we do love our Robeez! He has a pair of those that he wears around the house.

Dear April,
Thank you for visiting Lipstick Wisdom. I am now following you on twitter. If you ever want to “talk” or “vent” about your worries about your son — please reach out. I am going through the same thing and am discovering new things every day. We are 3 years in testing, exploring and discovering! So you understand the inspiration behind Lipstick Wisdom … and why the connectivity by “life event” is key.
Keep up the great work!!
Karen

Hi Karen! Thanks for stopping by. I’ve added you to my “follow” list on Twitter as well. 🙂 My biggest concern is keeping our son happy (within bounds of course.) If he’s learning and growing as an individual, I’m okay with that. Communication is such a barrier right now that we’re concerned about kindergarten in the fall. He’s smart and creative but has a hard time with expressive speech. Maybe also CAPD, but can’t test for that until December.

Thanks for stopping by my blog!

Good to meet another WAHM. I have been working from home for five years now and (almost) managed to keep my sanity…but then child number two arrived and it’s all looking like it’sabout to fall by the wayside!
Look forward to reading how you pull it off!
