I know that most of the readers of this blog earn sufficiently from their online gigs that's why I deemed it wise to post about "Blog Review for a Cause" here. A fund raising event for bloggers, Blog Review for a Cause was launched by Pehpot to help the young daughter of Mommy Rubz.


This pretty little baby, Bella, needs to undergo a surgery for hernia. Yes, contrary to more popular notions, hernia is a condition that affects not only the male species but females as well. 

Hernia is the protrusion of an organ through the wall of the cavity that normally contains it. When a hernia is not repaired, it may become strangulated. When strangulation occurs, there is a danger that part of the intestine be caught in the hernia cutting off blood supply to the tissue. Also, when a bowel obstruction occurs, it leads to severe pain, vomiting, nausea and inability to have a bowel movement or pass gas. Although Hernia happen to boys mostly, girls can also experience it.
We can all help Bella's parents raise the funds needed for her surgery. What can we do to help? We can purchase a blog review from her mom's PR3 blog. The review will consist of 150 words (all positive) with 2 links (home page link) and an image of the header or screen shot of the blog to be reviewed. One link with the blog title as the anchor text and the other link is on the image.

Please help us with this unselfish endeavor. All it takes is $10.00 (or more, if you want!) and I'm sure the amount won't do much damage to your wallets. If you want to share your blessings, you may send an e-mail to Pehpot. Her e-mail address is pehcats@gmail.com. Just send her the URL of the blog that you want Mommy Rubz to review and she in turn will send back to you the post URL and the PayPal ID where you may send the payment.

If there was one other thing which surprised me when I held my blogversary contest (apart from the fantastic turnout), it was a sponsorship pledge from Clarissa or Clang (as people in the blogosphere fondly call her) of Kizuna. It came as a surprise because throughout the entire time that I’ve been actively blogging, we never really got the chance to engage in serious conversations although we’ve gone past the usual exchange of pleasantries. That goes without saying, though, that I am a regular visitor of her blog. I may not make my presence felt when I visit, but I do. 


Clang is a Filipina living in Japan with her husband and kids. I love the story behind her blog title which she proudly shares in the Get to Know Kizuna page. She shares that Kizuna is her favorite Japanese word because of its meaning: TIES and BONDING.

The title choice for her blog is apt because it is where she shares snippets of her bonding time with her family whom she considers her passion. It does seem that her world revolves around her family because she makes sure that she’s involved with her kids’ everyday lives. So much so that she has volunteered to be a crossing guard for kids (hers included) who walk from their homes to their school. What better way to contribute to the community, right?☺

Like me, she also joins the weekly Girls Talk meme. Reading her entries, you can see that Clang is someone who knows how to take care of herself. I drooled over the stuff in her vanity kit because I personally have a meager supply in mine. I guess she loves shopping for cosmetics because that’s what she gave to my contest winner.

She joins other memes like Couple’s Corner, Food Trip Friday, Nostalgia and Mommy Moments. These memes are just clear indications of how much she values her family.

(So sorry for the late review Clang. I'm barely able to manage my time because of work.♥)

Someone told me that she just had to add my blog to her list of blogs she recommends because my blog was, in her words, "Wayyyyyyy too pretty." I agree. Call me a narcissist but I love my blog especially after it was given a major makeover by THE BLOG DESIGNER PAR EXCELLECE Kaye.


Don't get me wrong. Of course I love my blog. But I fell even more in love with it after Kaye shared her stroke of genius to it. Kaye surely has what people call Midas Touch. She was also the one I turned to when I needed a banner and badge for the blog contest I held last March.☺

So who is Kaye? Aside from being loving wife to her hubby she fondly calls Paulie and mom to her lovely "piglet" Svet, Kaye is a savvy blog designer, for lack of a better word. Have you seen her designs? If you haven't, you're missing one half of your life. Her online portfolio boasts of the many blogs that were fortunate enough to get a makeover courtesy of Kaye. Just look at the waiting list to see how many bloggers want a Kaye makeover. If that list doesn't convince you of just how good Kaye is, I don't know what else will.

Apart from being a blog designer extraordinaire, she also have a generous spirit and that is evidenced by the blog makeover giveaway she hosted for two consecutive months. She plans to do it a monthly thing so keep your eyes peeled for her July giveaway.☺

Is that all about Kaye? Not likely. She also shares the same fascination about vampires, particularly one named Edward Cullen, as with other women won over by Edward's charms (me included). She's also the spanking new host of the super famous Thursday meme Girls Talk, of which I am a proud "member" and her baptism of fire was supported and witnessed by many girl talkers. Proof that Kaye can take on anything thrown her way.

Not to mention that Kaye is also an excellent writer. If you want to know just how, visit her blogs and indulge your eyes in fine reading. Writer, wife, mother, blog designer...those are just some of the things this talent-laden lady has in her JD. Who knows what she's going to add there next? I can only imagine.☺

(Kaye dearest, I'm sorry for this very late blog review. This should've been done months ago but it's only now that I was able to squeeze it in to my schedule.)
