They make cupcakes based on their fave books and then send the cupcakes to me to enjoy (I WISH)! Either way, their videos are cute and fun and prolly very tasty. You might remember I read and reviewed The Great Gatsby a while back for book club. My review is here.  While the book wasn’t {Read More}

#PhillyHomeHer12 Wrap up

Becky & Victoria

So…PhillyHomeHer12 came and went.  BlogHer12 is over as well.  While our minicon (mini conference) was not the overwhelming size and scope of BlogHer, those in attendance had a good time. Towne Book Center & Cafe in Collegeville graciously donated their space and coffee and yummy cookies for our session. This was a unique conference, one in which everyone pitched in and had a stake in the conference.  Some donated items for swag, some shared knowledge and some posted links, etc.  {Read More}
