If You Were Deserted On An Island...

This month I decided to start networking my blog again and to get back out in the blogging world to not only meet new people but to help our blogs grow. This month has been a little rough and trial/error have been my bestie along the way. 

With that said, I wanted to change up the way I do sponsorships/ad swapping a bit. The whole point is to get to know these gals more personally and to share my loyal readership (aka, you lovely people) with them. I honestly don't swap ads with someone I don't think my readership would like and I don't swap ads with anyone I don't feel is genuine and in love with blogging.

From now on, I'm going to do two little sponsor posts. This is the first, which will include horrible pictures of these ladies (because I was stupid and forgot to ask them for one, so I blog stalked to get pictures. SORRY LADIES!), an answer to a question and their social media links. The second post (towards the end of the month) will be me sharing my favorite posts of theirs from this past month.

Any suggestions? Comments? Want to be apart of this for December? Contact me at:

Without further ado... the question this month was:

"If you were stranded on a deserted island, what one celebrity, food item, song and other random thing would you want to have?"

Kim from Wanderlustee
I decided to not grab a picture of her, but the aftermath of Sandy, which she survived in good 'ole NYC.
"I would bring Channing Tatum, chips and guac, the song Dachshund and my nook"

I never got around to asking Alyx the question of the month, but she is so hilarious, I bet it would have had you rolling on the floor laughing. She, Kim and I co-host the BBC (Blogger Book Club). JOIN US!

"If I were stranded on a deserted island the celeb I would bring with me is Howard Stern. Seriously. He would make the whole thing entertaining, and if he were missing someone would definitely find us. 
The food I would bring is... feta cheese. I am obsessed with feta. It tastes so good on everything. You'll probably be eating some really nasty stuff while stranded so why not sprinkle some feta up on there?? :)

My song... I'd bring would be The Cinema - Picasso. That song makes me happy and keeps me energized or it can put me to sleep. I would need a sleep song.

My random item would be... a helicopter. So I could get home :)"

"I would bring:
    Celebrity- Melissa McCarthy (from Bridesmaids) Because she would make me laugh about being stranded.haha
    food item- Raspberries
    Song- The Dog Days are Over by Florence and the Machine
    Random thing- My cute husband :) "

"I'm HOPING its an island with fresh water and a food source...sooooo I'd want to bring Leonardo de Vinci because he could invent anything else I might need."

Special shout out to this lovely lady: She is a GREAT friend of mine. She's BRAND SPANKIN NEW to the blog world. Please, go give her some blog love!

"I would bring Andy Sandberg, crunchy peanut butter, the song Grey Street by Dave Matthews and knitting needles."

Marilyn from The Pink Bambina
facebook//twitter//instagram
Also, a personal friend. Love on her too please. She is in transition from moving to Utah from here :(

"Um....Martha Stewart, apples, Muse-Starlight and can my other random item be an airplane so we're not stranded anymore? Martha because she can make ANYTHING, apples because they can be sweet and filling."

Kristen from The Radiant Life
twitter
She pulls of the Beibster look well. huh?? She was sick this day, but this picture makes me smile.

"I would bring Mindy Kailing, because she's sweet and hilarious; bulk rice and beans because they don't go bad, they're nutritionally complete, and easy to cook; "Call me Maybe" because that song just makes me so darn happy, and if I'm going to be stranded I need to be happy; and a blanket. I can not sleep without blankets, no matter what."

Alexis from Living the Wifestyle

I didn't get her question either, but this girl is just so dang lovable. Probably one of my favorite bloggers in a while.

Hopefully you enjoyed getting to know these ladies, and you actually might be surprised at how much you LOVE them. I sure do and am so blessed to be getting to know them better.

Oh, and for my answer to the question:

"I would bring the good 'ole Michael Scott Dwight Schrute Mwight, pita chips and hummus, Bulletproof by Sia and tiki torches, because, it will be a party y'all."

Ta ta until tomorrow!
