COOL WEBSITES

Chief Parenting has named 10 incredible women into it’s inaugural class of the Chief Mommy Officer Hall of Fame. These 10 women were chosen because they have achieved greatness in their respective careers, while simultaneously maintaining their roles as exemplary mothers.

With Summer fast approaching, a lot of us are in anticipation of some great grilling! The Hearth, Patio & Barbecue Association (HPBA) is celebrating National Barbeque Month by sharing some great tips and suggestions on how to have a fun and safe meal including step-by-step barbecue party preparation tips, safety and food handling tips, recipes and entertaining ideas.

Do you think Mother’s should be celebrated for more than one day? Well, Boston Market agrees. They’ve recently launched a campaign called The Moms Party where anyone who registers and signs the petition to make Mother’s Day a month-long event will receive an online coupon for a free dessert at any Boston Market. Free dessert? Sign me up!

GREAT DEALS

Once again, Senseo Gourmet Coffee is offering their coffee pod system for only $15 (shipping costs). All you need to do is fill out a short questionnaire to see if you qualify. It’s real easy and I received mine within a month. I use it every morning and totally love it!

Until May 16th, Froggy Reviews is offering a free WordPress Blog theme called Rusty Scrappy. Check it out!

If you would like to have a post on your blog featured in 5 Minutes Around The Blogosphere, please send us an email with the actual link to your post at features5minutesformom at gmail dot com and we’ll see if it can be arranged.
