I am pretty excited about a few happenings going on with Not So Doughie in the bloggin’ world that I wanted to share!

[one] I signed up for a second go with Foodie Pen Pals.   We received our matches and I think I was paired with a non-blogger.  I told her to check out my blog – so shout out to my February pen pal!  It’s too late to sign up for February, but if you are interested for next month check out the information HERE.

[two]  Next week I will be swapping blogs with Becca.  She blogs over at Two Places at Once and has some yummy recipes and insightful words, check it out.  In light of Valentine’s Day next week, we will be sharing some v-day inspired dishes.  On her blog, I will be sharing a not so doughie romantic dinner for two & she will be sharing some breakfast treats to share with your valentine.  Be sure to check out the swap next Wednesday!

[three]  Kallie over at First, But Coffee put together a Mug Swap for bloggers who love all the fun mugs out there.  We are paired with another mug-lovin’ person and you get a new, cool mug.  I am excited to be a part of the swap and meet some new bloggers who also have an obsession with mugs, teas and coffee!  You can check out the details HERE and join!  You don’t have to be a blogger for this one either.

[four]  I am participating in my first group give away!  I am so excited and feel like I put my big girl blogging pants on finally 🙂  The give away is based around the #SipHappens link-up event.  In a nutshell, a blogger picks out a wine based on its label only and other bloggers throw Sip Happens parties, comparing other wines to that wine.  We blog about it, give away goodies and are merry because well… we are drunk happy.  The giveaway will include $75.00 in paypal cash, a cute wine tote, hand-painted coasters, and a sponsorship package on Living in Yellow.  Be sure to check back on Monday and enter for your chance to win!

[five]  I am posting my Pineapple Salsa recipe this weekend!  It is so easy to make and to me tastes a bit like summer, which I need badly.

so that’s it folks.  it is Friday, thank god.  I am blogging / pretending to wrap up my day in the pharmacy.  I hope you have a great weekend!
