Today's the Day!--BREAKING NEWS




BREAKING NEWS! BREAKING NEWS! BREAKING NEWS!

As I'm stomach-deep in bake sale baking (no, seriously...the flour & cocoa detritus seems to collect about waist-high), and I'll be away from home for most of tomorrow, I won't even start on Blog Party until Saturday.

You get an extension! You now have until Saturday noon (EST) to get your entry to me!
So, if you really wanted to come, but didn't think you'd have enough time...you do!

- Just A Reminder...
Blog Party #12 is THIS Saturday!!! There are still a few more days to get those entries in, and don't forget: we're celebrating a full year of appetizers and cocktails with a Passport Party. This month, we're traveling to our favorite places...

- Shhhh! Don't Pass It Around, But...
Blog Party #6, Retro Party, is going on right now!. And while technically you should have your entries in already? There is an unofficial 'grace period'...through experience, I've found a few submissions in my in-box as late as Saturday afternoon....
