<p>Over at the Health &amp; Wellness Channel my pal Angelique at <a href="http://www.breakingthemirror.com/">Breaking the Mirror</a> is having some musical contest fun with her, “<strong><a href="http://www.breakingthemirror.com/2008/06/16/crazy-cool-contest-help-us-write-a-breaking-the-mirror-theme-song/">Crazy Cool Contest!</a></strong>” You can help write the Breaking the Mirror theme song.

<p><strong>NOT CONTESTS &#8211; but still cool:<br />
</strong></p>
<p>You know, I tried to gather some other contests, but it’s bleak, my timing is off, because there’s not any contests going on. So, as I surfed about looking, I found some other cool stuff to round out this post…</p>
<p><a href="http://www.allholidaycafe.com/why-is-friday-the-13th-unlucky/">Why is Friday the 13th Unlucky?</a></p>
<p>Ooo la la &#8211; <a href="http://www.bakingdelights.com/2008/06/13/vanilla-rose-ice-cream/">Vanilla Rose Ice Cream</a>. I tell you, rose is not my scent of choice, but as a food item, roses rock.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.robustcooking.com/10-easy-healthy-changes-you-can-make-to-your-pantry/">10 Easy Healthy Changes You Can Make To Your Pantry</a> &#8211; So here comes my disclaimer. Yeah, I’m linked in this post, but that’s not why I’m including it. It’s a great post with EASY steps you can take to be healthier &#8211; who can’t use that?</p>
<p>The whole channel did a theme day last week; the view from my window. I usually do weird things like play favorites on theme days, (although I doubt the channel knows this &#8211; well, maybe now they do), and on this particular theme day, <a href="http://momgadget.com/a-view-from-my-window-in-indiana/">this was my favorite window view</a>. I would love this view. Very chill.</p>
<p>And in sexy cake news &#8211; <a href="http://www.chocolatebytes.com/better-than-what-cake/">Better Than WHAT Cake?</a> Quit flinching, I hardly ever get to say things like, “And in sexy cake news.”</p>
<p><strong><a href="http://www.taxgirl.com/the-countdown-begins/">The Great Blog Off</a></strong> &#8211; Interested in what happens when a bunch of bloggers decide to <strong>blog nonstop for 24 hours</strong>? I mean, besides get loony… Here’s the scoop, <em>“To celebrate the summer solstice (occurring this year on June 20, the first time since 1975 that it hasn’t occurred on June 21), <a href="http://www.taxgirl.com/the-countdown-begins/www.taxgirl.com">taxgirl</a> and the <a href="http://www.b5media.com/channel/business">Business Channel</a>, together with the <a href="http://www.b5media.com/channel/entertainment">Entertainment Channel</a>, are participating in The Great Blog Off.”</em> Both channels will be supporting great causes. <a href="http://www.taxgirl.com/the-countdown-begins/">Learn more here</a> &#8211; and possibly stop by during the event and try to keep these bloggers awake by leaving fun comments.</p>
