You can now listen to 1stopmom through <a href="http://www.podblogr.com/" target="_blank">BlogRadio</a> for free!! You know how much I love free!!! When I heard about this from <a href="http://www.modernmami.com/" target="_blank">ModernMami</a>, i just had to check it out. It is a great idea. I am able to listen to what my favorite bloggers have to say while getting some work done myself. Another thing I love is that it can work on your mobile device. Listening on the go? I like that.  I am getting so caught up. It can be overwhelming to try to stay up to date on all the posts from your favorite blogs. Listening is a option I never thought of.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I love it when I come across some great blogs and it gets even better when I get the chance to meet that person in real life. I wanted to start this little thing called Meet My Friend Spotlight. I am hoping it will be a fun way to give love to some really great bloggers.</p>
<p>This week I would like you to meet <a href="http://pennypinchingdiva.com/" target="_blank">Penny Pinching Diva</a>. Now I have not had the pleasure of meeting Shynea in person, but I hope to in the future.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="size-medium wp-image-3653 aligncenter" title="ppd" src="http://1stopmom.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/ppd2-289x300.jpg" alt="ppd" width="289" height="300" /></p>
<p>With your first visit to this site, you will not be able to deny that she is definitely a <em>DIVA</em>, lol. She can do it all. Shynea&#8217;s blog should be you first stop every morning. She posts about great deals, price cuts on products, even the best way to use your coupons to save us all money. She is honest and I love the way her personality shines through. Penny Pinching Diva is a site that is easy to navigate and loads fast. The colors work well together too. Now I must warn you ahead of time, you will find yourself there a little while <img src='http://1stopmom.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' />  Shynea has freebies and reviews as well with some recipes thrown into the mix.</p>
<p>Shynea has a great site that you need to check out. You can follow  Penny Pinching Diva  <a href="http://twitter.com/ppdiva" target="_blank">here</a> on Twitter.</p>
<p>So please take the time to <a href="http://pennypinchingdiva.com" target="_blank">Meet My Friend</a> and show her some love.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I love it when I come across some great blogs and it gets even better when I get the chance to meet that person in real life. I wanted to start this little thing called Meet My Friend Spotlight. I hoping it will be a fun way to give love to some really great bloggers.</p>
<p>This week I would like you to meet <a href="http://www.thisfullhouse.com/" target="_blank">This Full House</a>.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.thisfullhouse.com/"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-3539" title="thisfullhouse" src="http://1stopmom.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/thisfullhouse.JPG" alt="thisfullhouse" width="400" height="456" /></a></p>
<p>I was able to meet Liz in person at the Nestle Blogger Event I attended. She is an such a great person. First of all she is so nice and friendly. I just fell in love with her when I heard her snort, lol. It is so cute, if something is really funny she snorts when she laughs! I just love it. I honestly believe once you visit This Full House you will fall in love with Liz too. She is just so real and honest. The posts <a href="http://www.thisfullhouse.com/this_full_house/2009/10/completely-honest.html" target="_blank">Completely Honest</a>  and <a href="http://www.thisfullhouse.com/this_full_house/2009/10/nearly-wordless-wednesday-dont-sweat-the-dirty-laundry.html" target="_blank">Don&#8217;t Sweat the Dirty Laundry</a> are proof of this. Liz has a sock basket just like we do! She has this page on her blog which gives a <a href="http://www.thisfullhouse.com/this_full_house/this-full-house-virtual-tour.html" target="_blank">virtual tour</a> of her house. Would a great idea and I feel like I know her even more.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I love it when I come across some great blogs and it gets even better when I get the chance to meet that person in real life. I wanted to start this little thing called Meet My Friend Spotlight. I hoping it will be a fun way to give love to some really great bloggers.</p>
<p>This week I would like you to meet <a href="http://www.makeandtakes.com/" target="_blank">Make and Takes</a>.</p>
<p> </p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-3483" title="makeandtaks" src="http://1stopmom.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/makeandtaks.JPG" alt="makeandtaks" width="297" height="356" /></p>
<p>I had the pleasure of meeting Marie at a recent event. She is a creative mom of 3. Not only is she nice and kind. But that girl is smart and crafty too! I think why I love her so much is you can see the excitment when she talking about the &#8220;make and take&#8221; of the moment. Make and Takes is not one of those blogs that is full of stuff that looks beautiful but is very difficult to make. And don&#8217;t expect to have to spend lots and lots of money you do not have. It is way better than that.</p>
<p>Right now she has a post for an easy to make <a href="http://www.makeandtakes.com/baby-burp-cloth-tutorial" target="_blank">Baby Burp Cloth</a> that I can&#8217;t wait to make for my soon to be here nephew!</p>
<p>Marie even has a recipe for <a href="http://www.makeandtakes.com/pop-up-pancakes" target="_blank">PopUp pancakes </a>that put a big twist on pancakes. It is one of things that is a great idea and I can not believe I never thought about it before. I think they will be a big hit in our house!</p>
<p><a href="http://www.makeandtakes.com/mini-i-spy-quilts" target="_blank">Make and Takes</a> is a great site with a great mixture of everything from crafty tips, giveaways and parenting tips. And it is all in fun. You can follow Makes and Takes <a href="http://twitter.com/makeandtakes" target="_blank">here</a> on Twitter.</p>
<p>So please take the time to Meet My Friend and show her some love. You may find some really interesting stuff over there.</p>
