Join in the Easter Egg Hunt

2 Crazy Chics and their sponsors are holding our their first Easter Egg Hunt! It's so exciting and you'll have a blast.

Here's how ya play...

Hippity Hoppity Easter's on it's way!! But, It looks like the Easter Bunny has lost his Easter Eggs.
Can you help him find them?

The Easter Bunny was busy shopping and I guess while he was browsing these
websites he dropped his eggs here and there.

So, we need help finding them or he won't have any eggs to hide for all the little kids on Easter.

Visit each of the websites participating, and search good because the Easter Bunny said he dropped anywhere from 2 - 4 eggs at each website.

Look really really hard because you never know where an egg might be.

CLICK HERE for the list of businesses!

Then

EMAIL US at 2crazychics@gmail.com

with the exact url/page where each egg is and you will be entered into the Easter Basket drawing...and the prize is way better than a basket full of eggs!
To be entered in the drawing you must find ALL the eggs!

Easter Egg Hunt will run from March 25th at 12pm Central Time
to April 5th. at 12pm Central Time

We will be giving prizes away to 3 Lucky Winners!
All who email with all the correct url's for where the eggs are hidden will be put in a drawing.
We will pick 3 winners on April 6th.

Take a look at what was donated and by who HERE.

Bitten by Books Review Staff - 2 electronic copies of the epic story “Nothing But Red”. This is not a paranormal story, but it is a book with a collection of stories that impacts women worldwide. The review team of BBB would like to spread the word about this important work and encourage each of you to purchase your own print or e-book copy of “Nothing But Red” in support of woman and ultimately humankind. About the book:
“In April 2007, a group of men pulled seventeen-year-old Du’a Khalil Aswad into a mob. They proceeded to stone and beat her to death, a supposed “honor” killing for allegedly falling in love with a man of a different faith. Several camera phones recorded the entire incident from the front row, and videos later surfaced online. One month later, popular filmmaker Joss Whedon expressed his despair and outrage at the misogyny in all cultures on a fan-run blog. “Because it’s no longer enough to be a decent person,” he wrote. “It’s no longer enough to shake our heads and make concerned grimaces at the news. True enlightened activism is the only thing that can save humanity from itself. I’ve always had a bent towards apocalyptic fiction, and I’m beginning to understand why. I look and I see the earth in flames. Her face was nothing but red.” The arts anthology Nothing But Red was conceived as a way to raise both awareness of the issues he spoke of, as well as money for the charity Equality Now.” Buy the book here: http://stores.lulu.com/nothingbutred
