Sponsors

You know those blogs that have 45 widgets on the side of their posts listing their cute little sponsors? Those are the bloggers who are rewarded for being incredibly witty, pensive, or introspective. Unfortunately for those poor people, they also have to endorse products they know nothing about OR they get sent stuff so THEN they have to endorse the product even if they don't like them.

And so, it is with a heavy heart, I feel the need to endorse my sponsors' merchandise. Ready? Here I go.

(Cue chirping crickets)

And so we have established that I am a grassroots blogger. I have no sponsors. I can say anything I want without fearing retribution from sponsors. I'm blogging because my little world revolves around me. Cool, huh? So anything I decide to dis or endorse is my own opinion.

A little background is in order first. I have wanted a mother's necklace that is my style. I contacted Tiffany at the Silver Cottage and told her the names of my children. The only directive I gave her was to keep it simple. It arrived today and, I must admit, I am now the cutest girl I know. So much so that I have been calling my friends, neighbors, and sisters to tell them how cute I am. Her creations are personal, creative, and excellent taste.

Did I mention affordable? So affordable that I'm offering a deal for anybody who places an order between now and August 2nd. Tiffany will give 25% off her regular price if you contact her and tell her you saw it on my blog or somehow work into the conversation that Nancy is the cutest girl you know now that she wears a silver pendant around her neck that boasts that she is the joyful mother of four specific children. And, yes, I paid for my treasure.

I know what you are thinking. How can she offer this great price? The answer is simple. She doesn't know. She'll be just as surprised when she reads this blog as you are! Maybe more so! Isn't this a fun game? And I wonder why I don't get sponsor offers. Go figure.

Check out her blog or click directly on the icon to get to her store. If you skip the blog, you may miss out on a lot of fun. She posts great saving ideas, organization of coupons, internet specials for FREE stuff, interspersed with stories about taking her six children to a free concert featuring the Bee Gees. Don't you love the way that last sentence contained both "free" and "Bee Gees"? It totally makes me want to find a DeLorean time machine and be the coolest 70s chick in my polyester disco shirt.
