Adding to the Madness & A Very Meri Crisma 2 U!!

HolaHolaHola My Beautifuls!

Ok,time to come clean, BB's bushed. And it isn't from the holidays. 2013 was a good year, all things considered, pero me dejo con la lengua afuera. My tongue's hanging out and we still have a week to go! Do you remember Babushka's post stating she was going to go slower on the blog? Did that happen? JU SO FONII!!! I ended up writing double my usual! And the SMCSF Blog Challenge post where I said I was going to use the 30 day straight postings to catch up? A Great Big JU SO FONII!!! on that one too. I still plan to write the posts promised, however I will try to do a weekly recap and maybe that way it won't be so overwhelming. For overwhelming I've still got my house to clean. 

BB recap 1

Two days after writing/ordering this arrived.

Queee?? 2 days later it was at La Tata's.  She was so very happy!

I hope what BB & Sweetie got her will make her happy too.

Do you remember this post?

http://bohemianbabushka.blogspot.com/2013/11/personal-lifelong-memories.html

BB received this from the UK on Wednesday.

Looking at the pics, I KNOW La Tata will always have this by her side.

Bebe Lanugo and Instajuction thank you.

Not only have you made this week's recap easy and pleasurable,

but you've helped Babushka give presents that share the memories and love.

And you can't do better than that.

To you My Beautifuls, may your Christmas and celebrations do the same.

Babushka Besos a todos.  Cuidensen.

HolaHolaHola My Beautifuls!

'Tis the time for regalitos, but what gift do you give to a Princess? 

 Bueno, my granddaughter La Princesa is a true Princess, so there's nothing better than a gift about her!! 

Bella isn't she??!!

 Personalized music and in Spanish. ESO!!! 

Her mom said we couldn't have found a more perfect present.

Ahuh, you saw correcto.  The promo code is "BB2U" just for Babushka's Baile readers.

This is not the first time BB writes about Bebe Lanugo. 

Quality stuff by quality people.

So go ahead My Beautifuls and order your personalized CD. 

Not only will you be making memories, but you'll have a keepsake that'll be cherished.

How sure is Babushka of that?  JU SO FONII!!! A Groovy Grandma Secret. 

 BB bought the perfect holiday twofer, sure to please La Princesa and her mommy.

The personalized CD  and child size headphones.

Si, BB's good.

HolaHolaHola My Beautifuls!!

And what brought this song to mind ?? Time with friends of course.  

This weekend BB attended the #HelloAio event hosted by my friend Myrah. Que fun!! 

Hummer Limo Ride  by ApollosChariots
 pic thx to @SerraJoselina

jehe, as stated in the last post it was all done with style!!

While there, I made new friends:

Edith Tapia, Dena Scroggins, Claudia Alderete, Myrah Falco Duque, Jen Vargas, BB
2nd Row- Serrao Joselina

A wonderful time was had by all. Quee?? JU SO FONII!!! Not all my friends are new, nor are they bloggers.  Matter of fact, Babushka has friends (a couple BB worked with almost a decade ago) who picked me up right after the event.  I spent a marvelous night with them reminicsing, catching up, and meeting their Bella, Brilliant baby.  Ok si, she's not a baby- she's a 40 yr old in a 5 year olds body. Entirely Enchanting.  

No, there are no pics of my Gold friends because BB respects their privacy. It's up to them to start blogging so they can share those pics. I tried, I truly did. Babushka loves sharing with you My Beautifuls and thinks everyone would enjoy doing the same, but she's wary. Mrs. G TiggiBaby thinks no one would find her writings/life interesting. BB totally disagrees. Just look at the pancakes she made-

I mean, how creative and perfect right? Not to mention sponsor/product placement. A Natural!!!

She and her hubby Mr. G SithSlayer, besides being beautiful people, have a beautiful collection.  For years they've collected Disney, Star Wars, Lord of the Rings, Swords, just the coolest collection and cutisimo!!  Now don't you think that's a great bunch of stories/posts?  Ok, maybe BB does want all her friends to be bloggers. 

 And why not? 

They already love the Darkside.

; )

Babushka Besos a todos.  Cuidensen

Learning & Living with a Master- CouponMamacita

HolaHolaHola My Beautifuls!

Have y'all ever been in "The Groove"?  You know, that series of events that the S Sisters put together that leave you saying ESO!!! This is where BB is right now.  Actually, THIS is where I am right now.

http://instagram.com/p/hkEMDRCdbs/

BB stay home for more than 3 weeks at a time??  JU SO FONII!!!

Bueno, let's go back a little bit. Babusha is what you might call a last minute packer. Yo se, I know, you're so surprised verdad?? jehe I do a mental list of what I need to take and then last minute I physically add at least 5 pounds more of stuff.  Thank goodness Greyhound lets me take 50 pounds in my suitcase without extra charge! Continuing. BB usually doesn't sleep the night before a trip, but this time, since I still hadn't unpacked from the last trip, I actually slept- first sign of "The Groove".  Upon waking I was actually rested enough to make a big breakfast of Coffeemate Pumpkin Spice waffles before taking Sweetie to work, and then picked up My Little One to do some last minute errands.  But the moment of "The Groove" Realization?? NO CUBANTIME! Babushka was not only on time- pero ONE HOUR EARLY!! Si, yo se, never happened before. This is why I am writing it here- to document that IT DID HAPPEN.  Another first in 2013. 

 But why the trip to Orlando? Because my FIRST Bloguera friend was Myrah, BTA CouponMamacita / Mamacita La Cuponera and she's hosting the #HelloAio event where she's teaching us all about Mobile Couponing. With over 50k followers you know she not only talks the talk, but walks the walk. Look at the "mini stockpile" she has.

And that's just her garage!

 Coupon Central-

Now THAT'S how to do coupons!!

And her event on Saturday- #HelloAio ?

"Aio Wireless and Coupon Mamacita invite you to join us for breakfast on Saturday, December 7th from 11:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. to have an interest conversation about mobile couponing and the best apps to save this holiday season. The event will take place on 2619 S. Hiawassee Road, Orlando, FL 32835. 

It’s going to be an informative and fun morning, but the greatest treat will be the chance to check out some of the latest technology and even get some free prizes! We will have games for the kiddos and also introduce you to Aio’s Inspiration Series. The Aio Inspiration Series is a program created to showcase local artists designs and artwork on premium accessories like:

• Eskuche headphones

• iFrogz Boost speakers

• Hoodie Buddie – which is a cool hoodie with machine washable ear phones

You will also get the chance to enter a raffle for a chance to win a Galaxy S4 and even walk away with some Gift cards!!!"

THAT'S how to do an event too!! 

Not only will we be introduced to Aio's Inspiration Series, but we're going in style thanks to Apollo's Chariots. 

Oh my and Oh Yeah. So, what does BB think of the series? 

BELLA!!!

#HilariousHoliday - Oh Target, JU SO FONII !!!

BB was contacted by Target to join their #HilariousHoliday campaign and sent a gift card to help put me in a happy, laughing mood.  The opinions expressed and story shared are/is true and all Babushka. 



HolaHolaHola My Beautifuls!

The holidays have oficially started and the decorations are all over the place- including on us!! Y'all know how Babushka adores Target (I'll share the first post I wrote about them later) because of their attention to detail and good taste, but did you know they had a sense of humor too?? Oh yes they do! They contacted BB to do a post on their "Ugly Sweaters".  Bueno, I guess they figured BB was an authority on the subject since I proudly have my own "Ugly Sweater"- though I prefer to think of it as festive.  Continuing.

http://bohemianbabushka.blogspot.com/2013/01/bb-extra-extra.html

Accompanied by My Little One, we went to our local Target and started looking for those "Ugly Sweaters". Being females we of course started in that department. And being females, in Target, we of course found some lovely things.

We found holiday sparkly- black blingy blouses

 and even sweaters with sparkly 

We found these... but they were fonii, not ugly, and not sweaters! 

Not finding the "Ugly Sweaters" here we went to the children's department.

Quee?? Ok si, you're right. Nothing in that size could ever be ugly, especially these cuties!

We then went to the Men's Department, and though we didn't see "Ugly Sweaters" we did see some very close primo hermanos- first cousins.

No luck on those "Ugly Sweaters", but then it hit us.  We're talking Target here, no tacky just chic.  But still, BB knew there had to be a reason for the assignment, they wouldn't have sent me out on a wild "Ugly Sweater" Chase... so to the net Babushka went.  Saben what I found??  Target doesn't do tacky, but Target does do humor "in chic".  In "chic"/cheek. Got it? Si, gotta love those Groaners , and gotta love Target.  

And now- the infamous "Ugly Sweaters" of Target!!

http://www.target.com/s?searchTerm=ugly+sweater&category=0%7CAll%7Cmatchallpartial%7Call+categories

Again, BB calls them festive, not ugly.

Oh Target-

JU SO FONII!!!

Babushka Besos a todos.  Cuidensen.

P.S. As promised, my first (and fav) Target post.

Personal Lifelong Memories- Instajunction Makes them Easy and Fun!

*This is a sponsored post between FuelMyBlog and Instajunction. The opinions and item ordered are all BB's.

HolaHolaHola My Beautifuls!!!

It's the day before Thanksgiving and Babushka was looking over family pictures, thinking how blessed life has been.  It then hit me, the power of pictures and the loving memories they share. Right there and then BB started doing her gift list. Quee?? Just give out generic last minute gifts? JU SO FONII!!!  Babushka may be spontaneous and extreme, but my gifts are always heartfelt and thought out, personalized in some way for that special person. And who more special than La Tata , my 92 year old abuelita?

When one asks her what she wants she says "Un abrazo y un beso."  A hug and a kiss.  Very nice, but not very lasting. She also says the only thing that keeps her alive is her family- especially the children.  If it were up to her she'd always have them around and on hand.  Y sabes que? You know what BB found? A company that'll help me do just that.

Instajunction is a company that's modern and innovative, using the style of Instagram and Feibu to share pictures on the most original products!  Ok si, soy Cubana, but BB exagerates not.  Lookey aqui-

Viste? Did you see the different items? 

Coasters, Polaroid Style Cards, Minibook, Posters, Magnets, Greeting Cards, Framed Prints, Wall Calendar, Vinyls, Luxury Aluminum Plates, Key Rings, Cufflinks, Wrapping Paper

The last two items had BB just smiling at the originality, but for La Tata, what better way to have her greatgreatgrandchildren, greatgranchildren, and grandchildren always on hand, than, a charm bracelet?!

Easy to do and fun playing with so many possiblilities! But you know the real fun?  Not only will La Tata LOVE this gift, but I get to gift something to you too. For you My Beautifuls, a 25% discount on any orders placed before December 8- use the code FRIEND25DG. 

Have a good time making your gifts and reliving memories. Instajunction makes it Easy and Fun!

As soon as Babushka receives the bracelet I'll share a pic; hope y'all do the same.
