Welcome to The Genre Favorites Blogfest, hosted by Ninja Captain, Alex Cavanaugh. For this blog hop, we are to tell you what our favorite genre of music, movies, and books are and then add a little guilty pleasure secret.
First, I want to thank Alex and everyone for stopping by!
Also, I wanted to invite you over to Sherry Ellis’s, Mama Diaries, she is participating in this blogfest, but also, she has so graciously invited me for an interview and I am her guest through Sept. 19th. I am giving away one of my books “Crying Bear” to a commenter at her blog. http://www.sherryellis.blogspot.com/ So please stop by and visit Mama Diaries!
Then, if you comment here today, you get another chance to win a copy (your choice) of one of my books, and an XL Hershey’s Chocolate bar, and six I Heart Cookies postcards– noted in the picture below.
This looks like an incentive to comment to me!
- (1) Book of choice, XL Hershey Chocolate Candy Bar, and set of six I Heart Cookies Postcards.
- NEWS & UPDATES
- For all those who have not gone to my “new” recipe food blog “The Recipe Weekly” I invite you to stop by today and peruse the recipes and articles. It is still under development, but I’m excited at how the background theme seems to be just perfect for a recipe blog and The Recipe Weekly– and the response through the viewership of The Recipe Weekly has been awesome thus far. At The Recipe Weekly you will find recipes, cooking tips, health and nutrition information and articles, and giveaways from time to time too! Sign-up for updates while visiting my food blog.
- http://www.therecipeweekly.com Having been a food blogger and recipe developer for ten years on The Lowfat Weekly, I had the opportunity to interview doctors, nurses, even Eggland’s Best Nutritionist, and I am bringing all this information over time to The Recipe Weekly. Read more about The Recipe Weekly by clicking here.
- To submit a recipe to The Recipe Weekly for possible publication on the website send your Tried & True Recipes to:
- recipesubmission [at] therecipeweekly [dot] com.
- If your recipe is chosen, we will contact you for a photo of the dish, or you making it, and details on submission.
Now to the questions Alex wanted us to answer…
and don’t forget to hop on over to someone else’s blog on the list below, after you leave mine.
My favorite genre of movies: Romance – My favorite movies of all are comedic romance and second would be western romances.
Favorite genre music: Country – Country music is definitely my favorite genre of music. I always feel that the words in country music hit home.
Favorite book genre: Romance – Romance novels of course! When I want to step-away from reality a little bit, romance novels are definitely a pleasure.
Guilty pleasure: Hmm! I’m not telling!!! Tee-Hee! My downfall is sweets…especially chocolate. For me sitting down with a couple of candy bars and a good romance novel or movie is the ultimate in guilty pleasure!
What’s yours? Let me hear below favorite movie, music, book, and guilty pleasure genre.
Now start commenting!
Friday check back to see who won my swag pack for the blogfest and at the Mama Diaries giveaway!
Hugs,
-Virginia

I’m so glad you are participating in this blogfest! Thanks for being a guest on my blog, too!
Your favorite genre of movie was my guilty pleasure!
Thanks for participating in my blogfest.
country girl, huh… the music is growing on me… since there is very limited things out there i enjoy, except score music.
Hi Jeremy, I love country music, more so of the new country, and love the country- period!! But…I like pop music, and some other genres of music. It is just COUNTRY is my favorite! Thanks for stopping by my hop on Alex’s blogfest! -Virginia
Hi Alex, Thanks for having the blogfest– it was a good idea (Genre Favorites). I’m new to blogfests, blog tours, hops, etc. I’ve only participated in one other blog hop. Kind of the new kid (Old woman) ;D on the block. Best, – Virginia
Sherry, I was just telling Alex that I have only participated in one other blog hop, so I’m new to all this. I don’t think people are finding me though (only one person so far) as I am way down on the list, #154. I will have to pay attention when I see other’s I want to participate in and try to enter right away. Thanks for having me on your blog as a guest! You did a great job introducing me, and answering folks. I will pick winners on Wednesday evening, and announce on Friday. ;D -Virginia
love this site – it’s a great blog – may i suggest you get an rss feed.
Thank you, Wesley. I thought my rss feed button was working, I just checked it out and see it is not. I’m sorry. Will have to try and figure that out. Please check out my recipe blog The Recipe Weekly, http://www.therecipeweekly.com. I know diabetic recipes are more what you are interested in, and from time to time I will make a point of posting diabetic friendly recipes. Thanks for stopping by.
