(and buried deep in 2008... nice hiding place, eh?)
Hello Everyone!
After a major blog renovation, I'm planning a really big online "Blogwarming party" to launch my newly made-over blog at http://adventuresofpamandfrank.blogspot.com/
I've got advertising lined up and expect quite a bit of traffic during the party.
There are links to all the blogs I regularly read in the blogroll here. (...and yes, I know I'm totally guilty of not commenting as often as I should...)
The Blogwarming party will run for 7 days with a different activity each day. The activity set for day 2 is a scavenger hunt, where I will invite my guests (readers) to check out my blog's "neighborhood," aka my blogroll.
The scavenger hunt list will be posted on my blog and my guests will need to visit the blogs on my blogroll, (including yours) looking for stuff on the list. People who locate everything on the list will earn entries to a giveaway that I'm hosting as part of the fun. (I provide the prize and ship it out to the winner. No cost for you.) When people find items on the list, they'll show they found it by submitting the URL of that item to me.
Would you like to participate in this? If you would, please send me something you want me to put on the scavenger hunt list and the URL for that item. It can be a trivia question about something in your blog, a picture you have posted, or anything you want. I'll only be posting one item per blog, so just send me one thing. (If this is a huge success, I'll have another Scavenger hunt again.)
Examples are:
- Find a picture of a rubber duck dressed like a pirate - http://www.yourURLhere.com
- Where did the Johnson Family go on vacation last Christmas? - http://www.anotherURLhere.com
- Which blogger has over 100 pairs of shoes? - http://www.yetanotherURLhere.com
- How many blogs does Cathie write or contribute to? - http://www.stillanotherURLhere.com
If you're interested, send me something to put on the list with the URL where it can be found. In exchange, I'll send you a little something to post on your blog so people know you've got one of the items from the scavenger hunt - to encourage them to stay and explore.
If you're not interested, that's fine. Just disregard this request.
Questions? Please ask. You can comment here or email me at: pioppam [at] gmail.com
Thanks!

PS: Please comment here with your Scavenger Hunt question and answer, or to say you're participating. I will not publish your comments so as not to reveal all the answers and also so the names of participating blogs aren't revealed (thus making the scavenger hunt a little easier.) Thanks!
Which blogger has a recipe for a One-Minute-Muffin? http://agirlonatkins.blogspot.com/2007/12/one-minute-muffin-recipe.html
ReplyDeleteThis is going to be great fun Pam! :)

How about, find a yummy cobbler and an apron fit for a cowgirl? http://theungourmet.blogspot.com/2009/06/fridays-try-bloggy-friends-recipe-week_11.html or you could just use the apron part of it. These are both in the same post.

Oh gee, this sounds like SO MUCH fun...But...I'm having surgery on my shoulder this Friday and will be incapacitated totally for a month and semi-totally (is that a word?) for up to 6 months so I don't know how much time I'll have or even IF I'll be able to do ANYTHING for a while. On the up side, I have been training hubby how to properly run the sweeper. Not ready to trust him with the laundrey though! But, thanks for thinking of me and keep me posted as to when the next one will be...I'd love to play!!!
