Tenns chose Cake Batter Truffle Bark from Eat, Drink, and be Mary. “Can we say the best of both worlds with this recipe! Cake batter truffle and white chocolate bark, I’m in heaven! Such and easy and quick recipe and I can’t wait to try it out. Just looking at the pictures made my mouth water!”
Cindy chose 5 Tips to Keep Social Media Fun from Satisfaction Through Christ. “Candice gives us great reminders of how to behave online. My new pastor is my Facebook friend so I am more aware than ever about what I post!”
Jillian chose 32 FREE Pretend Play Printables & a HUGE Cash Giveaway from My Joy-Filled Life. “I chose this post because I remember LOVING pretend play as a child, having these printables would have been awesome. I’m sure loads of kids would have fun with them.”
Karen chose DIY Recipe Plate from The (mis) Adventures of a “Born Again” Farm Girl. “I see similar things to this recipe plate on gift websites, so to think you can create it effortlessly in your own home is great. Great tutorial, Mindie – looking forward to having a go at it!”
Cathy chose Pallet Furniture Desk for Outside and My Wife’s 42 inch Behind from Simply Experienced Life. “I love Del’s story and the chair is awesome too! I love the keyboard tray – perfect for a blogger!”
Kimberly chose Best Affiliate Program for Fitness & Health Bloggers from Mama’s Got It Together. “I really like the fact that she is sharing a money making opportunity and providing fitness tips.”
Katie chose Personalized Handprint Wall Art from Home. Made. Interest. “I love how Melinda made this! What a great way to capture a moment in time before everyone gets bigger! I love that she included the dogs’ paw prints, too! Just adorable!”
Shana chose Pinterest: 0 to 1,000 Followers in 151 Days from The Coconut Head’s Survival Guide. “I was a little skeptical when I clicked on the post titled “Pinterest: 0-1,1000 Followers in 151 Days,” thinking it may be some slimy sales pitch, but then I breathed a sigh of relief when my browser took me to ‘The Coconuthead’s Survival Guide” (a trusted Turn it Up Tuesday community member and awesome blogger). Holly does not disappoint, candidly sharing tips that she learned from experience in just a few months. A very helpful read.”
Jessica chose 4 Things I Want My Kids To See Me Doing. from MacDonald’s Playland. “What a beautiful post! These are things I definitely would love to see my children too. As parents, we are the first teachers in their lives and simple things like these will go a long way.”

Rachel chose The Skinny on Blogging from Mommie and Wee. “I chose this post because it is a great post for beginning bloggers and even veterans. I love the reminders and overall picture given of the blogging community while beginning to promote a blog.”
Natasha chose 8 Tips For Easy Flights With Kids from Living Frugal with Erika. “I was able to take advantage of a few of these tips (before seeing this post of course) on my most recent flight with my son. I wish I had the full list though; it would have made the trip that much easier! Great tips!”
