Some of you may have seen my recent vlog or my whrrl story for the SEEDs of Inspiration BlogHer 2010 partial sponsorship contest sponsored by SEED (a line of all natural body care) and hosted by Hip As I Wanna Be, Chicken Nuggets of Wisdom and Makeover Momma. I had so many posts on my [...]
I am going to BlogHer this August. That’s a given. You can relive the excitement of my BlogHer announcement with me and all of the lovely spammers who LOVE that post.
