The Ultimate Blog Party 2009!

Ultimate Blog Party 2009

To those of my friends who don’t know about the Ultimate Blog Party, you can read all about it HERE. Basically, UBP is a week-long celebration across the blogosphere, with tons of amazing prizes, hosted by 5 Minutes for Mom, a blog that I read daily.

For those of you stopping by from 5M4M,

welcome to *Life is Sweet*!

My name is Lolli, and I’ve been married for almost 14 years to my cute, over-worked husband, CandyMan (more on the over-worked part later). We have 5 kids–yes 5! KitKat is our oldest (12). Next comes our almost- 10 year old Necco, followed by 8 year old Twizzler, then 6 year old Reese, and almost-4 year old AJ (Almond Joy). Yes, we like to make things sickeningly sweet around here with candy names and all.

I stay home with AJ while the other kids are in school. I am currently taking my photography hobby to the next level, and spend a lot of my time taking pictures (cue the moans from my kids) and writing weekly tutorials here (or by clicking the link up top to Photo Tips). You can see some of my photos on Simply You Photos as well as my Project 365 blogs. I blog a lot–yes, it takes up a lot of my time, and yes, most of the time I love it. You can find out all about me by clicking on the about me tab up top, or by reading the interview I had this week on La Dolce Vita.

I do tons of giveaways and love memes and carnivals, so you’ll see me participating in lots of those. My current favorite? I Heart Faces! I love participating every week. I even started my own weekly carnival–Give Me Your Best Shot–where everyone can show off their favorite photo of the week. It’s not a photo contest or critique, simply a fun way to share what you’ve been doing over the week, and hopefully improve some skills through practice. I run it every Friday, and I’d love to see some new participants!

The biggest, most exciting thing going on right now is our new company, PeanutButter. Strange name, I know, but it sticks…and that’s what PeanutButter is all about. We are developing an exciting foreign language learning software–lanuage learning that sticks. In anticipation of PeanutButter‘s Spanish 1.0 release in the next few weeks, we decided to offer up a full copy of the brand new software to be given away on 5M4M (USC prize #27!), but I am also going to be giving the software away right here! PLEASE click HERE to enter!….and just remember that you knew us before we were famous. :) (Just to clarify–entries will be taken on the post specifically about PeanutButter, not here. But please leave me a hello in this post!)

Thanks for stopping by! Please come back!

PS–Here are the prizes I would love to win: US 19, US21, US22, USC45, US91, INTL 19, INTL 20, USC47, US88, USC56, US103, US43, US83, US123, USC16, USC15, INTL 3 INTL 30.
Remember–I’m prize USC27.
