Tickled Pink No. 71

Happy Weekend!
Hi all!
I am not a big holiday person, but I do love the excitement in my kiddos faces when we celebrate. What are your plans for Halloween? 
My kids have the most boring costumes - sorry there are no other words - they have a creative mom who can sew and this is what they choose...
a baseball player and
"Rapunzeled"
(that is how she says it...it is a verb here - "I have been Rapunzeled!")
What are your kids OR YOU going as?
 ***** 
Just so ya know...I may be a little absent or worse than usual with emails...my Mac is the doctor and sadly, probably won't be coming home - it is only 2 years old and the biggest lemon I ever owned! Sorry had to vent...it has been nothing but trouble since day 1...but that leaves me with no laptop and not as much freedom. (sigh)
*****
Be sure to enter the Mingle With Melt! Sweepstakes
a $500 giftcard is up for grabs for the winner (and the referring blogger).
It is so easy to enter:
your name, your email, referring blog name.
EASY-PEASY!
 *****
The bidding for THE DIY CLUB online DIY silent auction called
31 Days of Hope is still happening with SO MANY GREAT ITEMS.
You should head over there and see the awesome creations that
have been created by the DIY ladies and some other FAB contributors.

Be sure to stop by byAimee on Saturday to check out her Saturday Spotlight!
Lots of great businesses and bloggers are spotlighted each week...you might even see me and learn a little something new this week!

THANKS for YOUR OPINIONS last week!
I am going to try the following for features:
the top 1-2 in each category and maybe a few others that catch my eye will get featured here and on Facebook. This is how I started Tickled Pink anyway...but then I was featuring so many. Oh there is no easy answer!
I will still feature additional things on Facebook 
(because honestly it is easier).
BE SURE TO ADD A LINK OR BUTTON TO YOUR POST!

  2. I'm stunned to hear about your Mac because all I ever hear (from hubs and son who want me to switch) is that they're infallible. Hopefully they can fix. I'll pop back over when the links go live.

  14. Hi Holly, thanks, as always, for the great party! I know that the chocolate mustache has been around the blog block a few times, but I had so much from the the easy mold from Wilton that I found, that I wanted to share it with my (and your) readers. Thanks!
