I was just notified that I’ve been nominated for the Hot Blogger calendar. While flattered and a little bit embarrassed {{Blush}}, I’m excited! Being busy Mom, I don’t always feel that hot…Baywatch Babe I’m not…but I’d like to think I’ve still got that fire burning (or at least a spark) somewhere within me!
If you want to ensure my inclusion in this calendar, please take a moment to nominate me!
You’ll need the following info:
Blogger Name: Jessica Smith
Twitter Name: JessicaKnows

» Twitter / Jessica Smith: And I am now manga-tized! ...

The trend of the week on Twitter is manga-tizeing your avatar. Want to know how? It took me about 8 minutes total from creation to uploading to my twitter profile using this link . Don’t have a twitter account? Use it anywhere you post a profile picture. I’m thinking about changing my profile pic on Facebook too just to spice things up.

Is it Possible to Have High Fashion at Low Prices?
Help me find out and win a Flip Video Camera! 
As many of you know, I am one of Wal-Mart’s Eleven Moms, part of Wal-Mart’s YouTube community video campaign launching in September. I’m having a blast making money saving videos and wanted to include my readers. Wal-Mart and Flip Video have given me a Flip to record all my money saving tips and now they’ve sweetened the deal by giving me another one to give away to YOU!
So what do you have to do to win it?
Find a picture on the web depicting a fall fashion trend and write a short paragraph (this does not have to be long at all) about it and why you love it on your blog.
After you’ve done this, send me the link by commenting on this post. I will stop accepting links on this Sunday night August 17 at 11:59 pm EST.
On Monday morning I will post all the links and a poll for readers to vote on their favorite trend. I will keep voting open until Friday, August 22 at 12:00 Noon EST.
Whoever gets the most votes in the poll will win the Flip Video Camera.
Once the winner has been determined I am going to visit my local Wal-Mart, armed with my Flip camera and try to recreate the outfit and look (with make-up/hairstyle included) for under $75. I’ll capture the whole experience on camera for your enjoyment.
Can’t wait to see your favorite fall fashion trends!
Good Luck!
(Flip camera depicted is for representation only, a different model may be awarded)
