There were so many awesome posts to read and we enjoyed them all! It was so difficult to choose just one favorite each!

Dara chose Finer than Wine: 10 Delicious Beet Juice & Smoothie Recipes from Urban Naturale. "I love beets, they are probably my favorite vegetable! I can't wait to try some of these beet juice and smoothie recipes."
Buffalo-Chicken-Poppers-with-label
April chose Buffalo Chicken Poppers from A Dash of Sanity. "It's Super Bowl Season and I love hot wings. But buying chicken and making wings are not always the best use of my time. These look super simple and you don't have to worry about undercooked wings!"

Jessica chose 7 Steps to Getting Dumped While Still Looking Like a Grownup from Divorced Kat. "I remember being back in the dating scene and meeting "jerks" along the way. I loved #7 because I am guilty of doing a few of those things myself!"

Stacey chose Change Starts With Me from Being Positive with a Depressive Soul. "This one really hit home for me, as I have always struggled with self esteem issues. In the last few years, I have learned to like myself...sometimes, but it is an ongoing struggle. One that I will continue to struggle through until I accomplish my goal of self love!"

Stacy chose Parents Passing Down Attitudes from Pastries, Pumps and Pi. This post "really hit home with me! I am a former child and family therapist and cannot tell you how many times I encountered attitudes like this from the parents—who should be encouraging their children, not discouraging them! Thanks Tameka for bringing this very important issue to light from a teacher's standpoint, as well!"
dish detergent
Megan chose Can You Wash Dishes With Plain Vinegar? from My Lamp is Full. "I use vinegar to clean my countertops, glass, mirrors...so why not in the dish washer too? Great idea!"
A Deal Breaker
Natasha chose Is The Ring A Deal Breaker? from Romance Me. "Great post! Honestly, the ring does not matter to me. I would rather the marriage proposal be sincere and from the heart than the size of the rock that he chose. I would hate to have a beautiful, huge ring and we never make it to the altar or get divorced quickly thereafter. I want a marriage that is going to last and the size of the ring is not going to determine that."
Making-Ugly-Produce-Pretty-TaylorMadeRanch
Angie chose Fairy Godmother For Ugly Carrots from Taylor-Made Ranch Homestead Blog. "I clicked on many other sweet treat links but I always went back to this post - it made me laugh. It's so true - homegrown produce is not all shaped the same but look past the visual (or should I say "taste past the look") and you will find that taste speaks louder than the way it looks. Homegrown always tastes better than store bought no matter how it looks."

Angel chose Something Red Wrap for Valentines from 2 Crochet Hooks. "I decided that I truly love the Valentine's Crochet Scarf made by 2 Crochet Hooks. It is such a lovely project and I'm jealous that I can't make something that lovely by hand. These 2 ladies did a great tutorial that was easy to understand. Great job Millie and Kristina!"
