I feel really privileged at being the site of the day for the #31DBBB event. I made a special post for NirvanaMamma, so please make sure and check it out and give her some love.
But she wanted me to get some attention, which is so sweet.
I’m not really a very special blogger, the only thing special about me is that I have been blogging for over 12 years. Longer than even Blogger has been around. This blog is mainly about me and for my boys.
If you want to see a blog with a little more substance check out my blog Unicornbeauty. This is a new blog where you can learn more about blog design.
So you can get a feel for my blog I want to share with you 5 of my Fave Posts.
Look Beyond the Picture - Is all about moms getting in front of the camera. I made it a goal last year to make sure and take pictures of myself even if I hate them. Not for me but for my boys.
Dear Mr. Z - This is a letter that I wrote to my oldest son for his birthday. I hope to make this a tradition on my blog.
Frugal Fruit - I like to share recipes and cooking here on Pepper Scraps. But don’t worry I’m not a cook I’m actually known for my cooking fails. LOL
Late Night & Freebie - I love to share my talents with graphics so sometimes I have free printables. Grab up some mom cards!
Recording my Youth - I’m also trying to switch over to vlogging more than blogging, so if you want to see someone just starting out in vlogging and having some fails I’m perfect for you! This is the first vlog in a series about my youth!
So those are some of my faves. Please make sure and leave a message for NirvanaMamma on the next post too!!
Hope there are no typos, writing quickly on lunch at work. So hope you forgive any mistakes. LOL

I want to send out a big thank you to a very lovely lady, who cam up with a great idea that blossomed into a big wonderful community! If you are joining me from #31DBBB then you will know exactly who I’m talking about, Nirvana_Mamma! You can find her on twitter, tweeting along with us, or you can check out her wonderful blog, NirvanaMamma.com !
If you haven’t come from #31DBBB let me tell you about NirvannaMamma, or also known as Erin. One day had an awesome idea. She wanted to do Problogger’s 31 Days to Build a Better blog. But she also wanted to not do it alone! So she decided to see if anyone else wanted to join her. She now has over 500 people that have joined in this great event and I even saw more people joining today.
Not only did she come up with the idea but she has been working like a crazy woman on it. She has just been amazing. She has been busy on twitter and on blogfrog, but what you may not realize is that she has been doing so much on the behind scenes also. I know because I tried helping her out, though Lynda from Digital Woe ended up being a much bigger help! She has been working on keeping the database of users going and been trying to make tweepl lists going and getting rss feeds set up for people to follow everyone. She has been trying to event games to help out the participants that haven’t received very many comments. And while doing all this she has been trying to do her 31 day challenges, and if you are like me you are just struggling to keep up with those, let alone doing everything else she is doing!
As you can see she is one amazing woman and I wanted to send out a wonderful big thank you to Erin! So please join me in a big BIG THANK YOU to erin! Please let her know how wonderful she is in the comments because she has to see them all anyways, because she decided I should be blog of the day for her new game and she will get to read them all!!
THANK YOU ERIN!!
MAKE SURE AND LEAVE YOUR THANKS TO ERIN IN THE COMMENTS TOO!!
