This week Stephanie who runs Focus Organic has an eco carnival up on her blog and i had to share it with you as there are lots of good green articles to read. Please find Stephanie and say hello. This week i submitted my latest and greatest – 8 Fun Facts About Squash to the carnival so her readers could find me as well.

In the blogosphere it’s all about sharing. I hope you like the Eco Carnival and do let me know which articles you enjoyed? and if you’re a blogger which carnivals do you partake in?

P.S. Happy Monday!!!

Eco Carnivals Are Good For You is from groovy vegetarian

I did some research and asked around, and it appears to have been an issue with my server, in other words my webhost. I sent off a ticket to them and they advised me that the blog had search bots blocked, because of something called htaccess. I don’t want to get too technical about it (and between you and me), it’s all techy gibberish to me. I have no idea what htaccess is, where it’s at, or how to kill it. lol.

I do understand what HTTP errors are and i do know how to fix some of the more common one’s like the 404. But that is not the type i had.

But as i said above, i think the issues are resolved, and hopefully all is good and right with the master Google dudes and dudettes. We shall see.

Please do come on out to the blog and let me know what you want to see more of and read more of. I will tell you that i have BIG plans for 2009 for this blog. My next post will have more details on this.

Cheers, Missy.

PETA2 is giving away 5 free animal rights t shirts to 3 lucky winners. Each winner will receive all 5 t shirts. Pretty freakin cool. To enter to win, just head on over to the blog, and leave a comment. Specify which is your fave shirt and leave your shirt size. That’s it. Oh! and deadline to enter is October 3rd.

By they way, if you’re not following PETA2 on Twitter, you should add them. Twitter usually updates faster than RSS feeds, and when PETA2 updates their blog, you get instant notice. (usually) This Friday they are having a fabulous giveaway.

CONTEST COMING TO GROOVY VEG

I will be holding my own fantastic vegetarian t shirt giveaway in the next week or two. Code-Creations, an organic cotton tshirt maker, that designs vegetarian themed t-shirts has signed on to sponsor the contest. Kudos to Amber for the good word.

Stay tuned next week and be sure you’re an RSS feed subscriber (or email subscriber) so you don’t miss out.

Have a great weekend. Missy.

My Top 5 Vegetarian Blog Posts Last Week is from groovy vegetarian

I am flat out like a lizard drinking with learning to play lawn bowls, hanging out at the Aussie Bloggers Forums, just generally being a delightful mistress to anyone unfortunate to cross my path, my day seems to be a litany of stuff and giggles from beach break to reef break. I am wearing my budgie smugglers. I need some perspective.

I absolutely, positively promise that when the weather turns bad, I will blog more often. Seriously! Unless of course the pool with the cocktail bar is heated!.

I created the Lazy Blog Post Above, using a hilarious tool over at the Aussie Bloggers Blog. No, i’m not an Aussie, i happen to come across the blog, via the Performancing Ads portal. There header stood out like one of those traffic orange cones.

They have this neat tool, where you pre-fill a few lines, and they create a funny post out of it. Perfect for time-pressed busy lazy bloggers. Try it out!

Crikey! Lazy Blog Post #1 is from groovy vegetarian

Why I Started Groovy Vegetarian

The reason i started this blog was too showcase items of interest to new and to existing vegetarians. I believe i have done just that, over the past year. I will continue to bring veggie goodness to the world, and to my lovely readers. As of right now, i am only a vegetarian, but i think eventually i will go all out, and go vegan! There is no time limit, and i cant say for sure when this will occur, it just feels like a natural progression, to go from vegetarian to vegan.

I wonder how many vegan readers i have, if you are one, chime in below, and let me know. I’m just curious, that’s all. Don’t read too much into it. I guess, it is something that is currently on my mind.

NEW! Contest

As my 1 year anniversary nears, i want to celebrate, and what better way, then to throw a contest.
I am only introducing it tonite, as i know the July 4th weekend is upon us. Everyone is getting busy and ready for the veggie barbeque’s and parties. I, of course, will be at home, since my significant other has to work, at the restaurant.

On to the contest, it is set for Monday, 7/7/08, and will run during the week, with a winner announced on Friday. So stay tuned for it, as it is going to be a pretty good one.

Happy 4th of July, to all of you. (be safe)

P.S. Sponsors Wanted! – If you would like to sponsor something for the contest, do let me know. Send me an email. Thx!
