What's in your favorites? Part 5

Every now and then I like to share what I have saved in my browser favorites. So here are links I would like to share this time!

Freebies 4 Mom - I forget how I found this site but have since subscribed and find her posts to be some of the most useful emails I receive. Lots of great giveaways, coupons, freebies. Love it! Check it out. Subscribe and see if you love it too!

Don't Look Now! - Add this blog to your favs if for nothing other than to look at her beautiful work. I wish I could be this creative and crafty. I absolutely love her designs. Definitely my style!

Vincent Shoes - I stumbled across this and so want to buy these adorable shoes. Very European looking. Wish they made them in my size. Expensive. But no more so than Stride Rite and affordable when on sale. Currently have a lot 50% off! ( I so want to buy something from this site!)

Etsy - Your place to buy all things handmade. I so like to visit regularly just to view the 'handpicked' items on the homepage! Nice to support the hand crafters!

Buy Gift Certificates Half Price - For those living in the New Orleans or Baton Rouge area. Get half price gift certificates for hardware stores, boutiques, restaurants, entertainment and more! If you don't live around here try Restaurant.com for discounted restaurant gift certificates for cities all over the US!

Louisana Northshore- official website of the Nola Northshore. From here or not you will love this site if not meerly for the great design. For both locals and soon to be visitors!

What's in your favorites? Part 3

I haven't done this in awhile. Thought it was time.

Here are a few choice links from my Favorites list in my browser:

Cliff's Crib - if you aren't reading this blog you should be! Well written. 9th ward resident. Add it to your blog roll.

Michael Guidry Studio - The guy has some incredible local art! He is my friend Laura's brother. I also like the fact that his dog is named Mugsy and that was my dad's beloved dog's name growing up. I know, who cares, but . . . anyway.

Geocaching St. Tammany - Haven't tried it yet myself, but hope to one day. Gotta score a cheap handheld GPS. Check this site for geocaching in your area.

Wal-mart Free Samples - hit this site occasionally to sign up for free samples of detergent, hair products, toothpaste, etc.

Glassy Buttons - Create your own buttons on this website. Play around with it. View your button as you play! Fun!

What's in your favorites? Part 2

I recently wrote a post called "What's in your favorites?". It was a sneak peek into my hefty treasury of favorite links. I promised you more so here ya have it!

Jacquie Lawson Cards
My aunt and uncle always send these incredible animated cards from this site. I finally decided to check out the cost and I couldn't believe annual membership was only $10! Real cards aren't cheap and neither are stamps (they are raising the price on those again soon - in case you didn't know) so this may be my new route for card sending. Plus, it saves a tree and we know society is pushing us to be more "GREEN!". Most importantly, I think these cards are better than the paper version.

Divine Caroline
This is a site for those who love to write and those who love to read people who love to write. All kinds of topics. Geared toward women. Nice site. Great articles. If you love to blog or read blogs you will love this site too. Not just for professionals!

Pottery Barn Baby Photo Contest
This is an ongoing contest. I always submitted my kids but they never were chosen, but it is cute to see who is. Submit your 18 month or younger today! If chosen, they have a little feature pic in one of the catalogs.

MouseSavers.com
I've been told this is the go to site when planning a trip to disney. I have yet to go but once when we were considering it I started reading this encyclopedia of info on Disney and got so overwhelmed, but learned a lot.

Courtney Zeller's Cakes
If you live in the New Orleans area this lady makes AWESOME birthday cakes and the actual taste of the cake is delicious too! Affordable!

Well, that's all for now folks. Feel free to leave comments with some favs from your own favorites!

What's in your favorites?

I was doing a little computer housecleaning and noticed I have a ton of crap in my favorites. I will share just a few and every now and then share a few more cool links I have saved. So share yours too! What's in your favorites? Tell us. It is like emptying your purse for all to see!

Photofiddle - I've never used it but hope to one day when I have time to sit down and explore.

Fraction to decimal conversion - this bookmark gets used on occasion when I am doing print layouts and need to setup some odd dimension and put it in decimals.

Greater New Orleans Immunization Network's Bus Schedule - If you are a parent in the NOLA area and don't know about this you should! I use it all the time. It is clean, convenient, quick and most of all FREE! Why pay a co-pay for shots when you can get them for free!

Mahalo.com - A human-powered search engine. Check it out!

A reward chart for kids - I recently found this to use for my daughter. I liked that is was simple and blank. I added not only chores, but behavioral goals.

That's all I will leave you with right now. Another day I will tempt you with even more interesting and useful links - straight out of my very own FAVORITES!
