The Holiday Gift Guide is in process! So far I’ve posted guides on Gifts for Women, and Gifts for Baby/New Moms. More great gifts for the guys, for the home, for the tech/electronics lover and all about food will be coming this next week!

This week’s Contest Round-Up is up over at the other site as well. And don’t forget to check the Contests page during the week – there are some pretty awesome giveaways happening around the blogosphere so you don’t want to miss out on your chance to enter any of them!

Some interesting posts I read this week on other sites include:

• A couple of very useful posts over at 5 Minutes For Mom – first, a list of Top Ten Tips for Shopping Online (very helpful this time of year!), and also a list of Cost Saving Ideas For Christmas.
• Speaking of Christmas, are you thinking of decorating your blog for the holidays? Here’s a great post on The Festive Toolbox with decorating ideas for blogs over at Blogging Tips.
• Over at Crunchy Domestic Goddess – on Cool and (mostly) eco-friendly holiday crafts, and a whole post of links to various cookie recipes.  Yum!
• I’m not the only one giving away a pair of Polliwalks – if you’d like to win a pair of these very cute shoes, check out the Family Review Network for a whole list of sites that are running giveaways for them right now!

We’re busy with houseguests and a birthday party this weekend so I won’t be around much, but will update on all of it next week. Hope you all have a great weekend!
