Spring Fling Derbyliciousness!
Hard to believe in just a few more days it'll be Derby Day. Now, some of ya'll may have no clue what I'm talkin' about, so I'll give you the quick lowdown on the subject.
The Kentucky Derby is always run the first Saturday in May, which this year will be May 4th. The Derby is a thoroughbred horse race, the first jewel in the triple crown of horse racing.
This year is also the 139th running of the Kentucky Derby, so as you can tell, folks in the bluegrass been doing this for a loong time. :) The two weeks prior to Derby, the city kicks off with fireworks and all manner of festivities to celebrate the fastest 2 minutes in the sport of kings.
There's a Great Steamboat Race with the Belle of Louisville taking on the Delta Queen, a parade with floats and horses that travels downtown, a Great Balloon Race with hot air balloons, a golf challenge for hole in one, a bed on wheels race, and on Friday, The Oaks, also known as the Lillies for the Fillies, a stakes race for 3year old female horses.
Fillies can run in the Kentucky Derby, but only three fillies have ever won the Derby. Can you name them?

Spring Fling Saturday with Marie Hall!
Happy news, one of my favorite people and best friends just released the fifth and final book in her Kingdom series and I wanted to share it with my readers.
About the Book:
Trishelle Page has known pain in her life, but instead of it making her weak, she's stronger. Confident. That is until the day a fairy kidnaps her during her staring role in Peter Pan's play and tells her not only do fairy tales exist, but that she's the soulmate of the pirate they call Hook, making her question everything she ever thought she knew.
Captain James Hook is a man at the end of his rope. He's not the villainous bastard tales have made him out to be. So when the curvaceous blonde drops literally at his feet, he aims to prove it to her. If only to get her into his bed. What neither one knows is that fate and magic are conspiring and they can deny the attraction all they want but their happily ever after is already written, it's just a matter of getting there.

2. Party In The USA (bus scene) in the movie Pitch Perfect
3. Age of Aquarius/Let The Sun Shine In (scene at the end) of the movie The 40-Year Old Virgin
4. Afternoon Delight in the movie Anchorman
5. Benny and The Jets from the movie 27 Dresses
The winner will receive a $10 Amazon egift card!

Spring Fling!
It finally feels like spring here in the bluegrass. Sunny days with the occasional sprinkle of showers, highs in the 70's, everything blooming, me sneezing. lol But after a lengthy and protracted winter, this is sheer bliss. The Derby is just around the corner, and I'm still waving my pom poms over Louisville winning the NCAA tourney this year.
It's also Spring Break for a lot of students in the USA, so it just seemed like the right time to celebrate and what better way than with a Spring Fling!
Starting today through May 1, I'll be posting games, contests, prizes, and general fun stuff for readers and friends to enjoy! Plus, this Friday is Friday Finds and I'm serving up a hot one that's outta this world, wooyah!
Up for grabs is a neat prize pack that includes an eye shadow cosmetic kit, shimmery lip gloss, bendy nail file, and a shower gel bath set with loofah!
