Blogging ABCs

This looks like a fun idea so I am copying it from here.! :)


How it works:  open a new browser window or tap, then in the address bar, type the letter "A" to see what site your browser thinks you are going to visit.  

A - www.allrecipes.com - I LOVE this site! I find a lot of recipes here that my family loves.  I also love how I can check the ratings and find a recipe that other people enjoyed as well.  Plus I can read those reviews and see what things they found helpful.

B - www.bountifulbaskets.org - This site is a HUGE money saver for my family!  For only $15 each week, I am able to order around 45 pounds of fresh produce.  I wrote a blog about it earlier, you can read more about it here.

C - www.costco.com  - this one cracks me up because we don't even have a costco membership.  I think it popped up because we were looking a few months ago at tire prices.

D - disney.com -  My kids love to play games and such here.

E - www.ebay.com -  I used to have an ebay addiction.  I still love to browse.

F - www.foopets.com -  My girls are LOVE this site.  They like to take care of online animals.

G - www.gamefaqs.com - The best site to go to for video game cheats. 

H - pixiehollow.go.com - weird because we apparently had no H sites and it took the H from pixiehollow.  The girls play on this site that is all about the fairies from Pixie Hollow.

I - www.imdb.com - This is the Internet Movie Data Base and is the best place on the web to find out about movies and actors.

J - jobs.utah.gov - I think this is pretty self explanatory.

K - ps.iron.k12.ut.us/public/home.html - Apparently, Power School is letter K.  This is my FAVORITE site during the school year.  I can log in and see up-to-date information on how my children are doing in school.

L - www.lds.org - I am a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. 

M - www.macu.com - This is the link to my bank.

N - new.familysearch.org - This is where I go to do genealogy. 

O - www.omgpop.com - I love the "Draw My Thing" game on this site.  It is a fun online version of Pictionary.

P - www.pandora.com - Free internet radio.  One of the best sites out there.  (I do have to admit that the first P site was pixiehollow again and so I went to the next one.)

Q - www.qwest.com - I love that I can pay my phone bill online.

R - www.rockymountainpower.net - And I can pay my power bill online.

S - snopes.com - This is one of the most comprehensive databases on urban legends and other so-called factual things.  This is the first place I go when I get an email about something that sounds too bizarre or too cutesy to be true.  Or emails about WARNINGS of this and that.

T - thesaurus.com - This is one site that is a necessity when writing.  Sometimes my brain just blanks out and I end up writing the same descriptive thing over and over.

U - same as the letter M.

V - www.verizonwireless.com - I use this for checking the minutes used or to pay my bill.

W - westatestheatres.com - The local theaters in town

X - www.roblox.com - Online games.

Y - www.youtube.com  - Funny online videos.

Z - apps.facebook.com/playzoo/zoo/home.php?fb_force_mode=fbml - This is when I used to play ZooWorld a LOT on Facebook.  :)

Hope you enjoyed!!
