KarenG, author and sweetheart over at Coming Down The Mountain, had a fabulous idea to host a BBQ blog hop party! Since I'm a huge fan of BBQ's (nomnom) and I love to meet new people, I thought I'd join in on the fun. So come on in!
Here's how it works:
Here's how it works:
- Head on over to Karen's blog and give her a follow.
- Make a comment and share what food you're going to bring
- Visit three blogs from the comment list and follow if you like
The more you comment and follow, the more activity you'll see on your blog and the more people you'll meet. #winwin
As for my usual weekend frolicking, there will be very little of said frolicking, but lots of writerly doings. Mostly I'll be catching up on critiquing for my CPs (sorry I'm so behind!), working on my revisions and helping my daughter work on her essay (on JD Salinger) for her AP lit class.
What are YOUR weekend frolicking plans?
Have a safe and delightful holiday weekend!
Love,
Lola

About Me
- Lola Sharp
- My name is Lola. (I'm not a showgirl) Yes, L-O-L-A Lola. It's the least of my worries. Let's move on, shall we? This blog is mostly about my misadventures on the journey to publication and beyond. My passion for lush prose, quirky characters, art, music, literature, performing arts and anything creative will be a major theme here. This journey of mine will not always be pretty. Much like rubbernecking a train wreck, I know sometimes you just can't help but look at the carnage that is often my life. So strap on your neck brace, helmet and 5-point harness and come along for the ride! Licentia poetica.

Hi Lola! I'm already a follower and I am already at Karen's party, so if I may be so bold as to leave an invite to my own weekend party:
The Fantastical Fantasy Blog Party
Please pop by and grab a glass or three!
Here for the BBQ. :) Nice to meet you. Love the clown pic below.
How did I miss the bbq??? I'll pop on over.
I'm going to spend most of the weekend in my classroom :)
I've been enjoying the BBQ. Plan to get a lot of writing done this weekend. And goof off. Of course!
I'm so fashionably late for wonderful KarenG's BBQ but I remembered to bring the veggie sausages! :-)
Have a great weekend lovely Lola!
Good luck with your revisions, critiquing and above all with your daughter's essay - JD Salinger? Gawd bless him!
take care

Yum! So glad to be here--over from the BBQ and following!
Yay~ barbeque!
I'm heading over from Karen's and I'm so glad the party hasn't stopped:) Since they devoured my chili beans at Karen's, I decided on a fresh backed peach pie. Enjoy!
And thanks for the invitation to follow~ I accept!
I love the picture.
I've had a long day at the BBQ and decided to stop by and see what you're doing. Sounds like it will be a productive weekend for you and your daughter. Enjoy!

What a busy weekend Lola! My plans, finish revising chapter 7. It must be done! Wish I had something more exciting, but I really need to get this chapter done.
Good luck on the critiquing. =)
Have been enjoying KarenG's BBQ. Your treats are look absolutely decadent and delicious.
I will be cooking for the weekend. All four of my children are making their way towards my kitchen for all four points of the compass as I type. Enjoy your weekend.
I'm planning a big pool party. And there will be Coronas and Chile Con Queso. That's only on Monday. The rest of the time I'll be doing this and that. Hope you have a great weekend! :D
A weekend of writing sounds wonderful. And that pink sugary deliciousness pictured here is very tempting!
Over from Karen's BBQ - I like your blog! I'll be back. :)
What an interesting concept! I'll have to go over and see.
I'm starting my new job this evening. That will keep me off the streets for about six hours. I also work Sunday night.
The rest of the weekend is reading, writing and generally hanging out. Just right.
Have a great weekend, Lola.
Sounds like fun, best of luck.
Dang! Missed the BBQ, but I'm away from home anyway. Visiting Hotlanta for the week, and hoping to meet Mizz Lisa. Also writing on the new WIP in between general laziness and adoration of youngsters.
I think I need to make some frolicking plans, Lola. Frolicking is a good word. It makes me happy to say it. Hope you're doing great. I've missed you!
Thankas for stopping by from Karen's BBQ!
My plans? Went out to dinner Friday, took the kidlet to the amusement park, today we're beaching it, and tomorrow we're going to an actual BBQ. Whew! I'm going to need a day of rest after this. LOL
I love Karen!! She always has such great ideas. Going over there now :D Hey, was chatting about you with Summer and DL yesterday at Mimi's Cafe. Overwhelming consensus...we LOVE you!!
Happy Labor Day weekend <3
Hi Lola, I really like the picture of the goodies. Pink is my favorite color so the picture even gives me more pleasure.
I'm a bit of a latecomer to the BBQ party - but thought I'd stop by and say hello! I'm just about to become a follower - and look forward to having a peek through your recent posts :)
Oh, these sweets look SO delicious! Yum! :)
Hi! Just stopping by from the BBQ and wanted to say hello. I'm your newest follower =D

Hi! Stopping in from the BBQ too! New here, but love your style of blogging. Plus, you're a gal after my own stomach. Love root beer floats and spinach dip. Yum!
Great pictures, and look forward to getting to know you better!
Hi Lola, So nice to meet you! Lovely photo and blog! Thanks so much for visiting/following my blog! I'm looking forward to getting to know you!
Hi,
Thanks for stopping by my blog during the weekend party! Hope you had fun. Thanks for the follow too - I'm now following you ...
Lola the picture you showed off was absolutely delicious!!!! I love this BBQ idea... too cute!
There is an award over at Inkpots n' Quills for you. Pop over and collect it. Happy Monday!
Those desserts look yummy! Great to meet you at the BBQ Blog Party :-)
It's Monday, which means business as usual. It's the only day I actively clean the house. So I'm doing that. I'll shower, and try to finish a good book. Nice and relaxing before getting back into real life tomorrow. Hope you have a great day!
So cool! What a fun party! I'll head over, although I think I'm a little late in the game.
Today, I got in a little shopping, wrote a bit, and now catching up on a few blog things. Hey wait a minute, I wasn't supposed to do any work today!! Hmmmm....
Sounds like you've got a full plate, too. Good luck with that essay for the kiddo!
Karen's bbq was such fun! I hope you got lots of writerly tasks done this weekend.
I loved Karen's BBQ too. Her whole summer contest series was great, even though I didn't win anything. Thanks to her, i've met a bunch of nice people.
How was your weekend?
I got a new laptop with a free iTouch, thanks to the Apple promotion for educators, so that was sweet. On Friday night, I went out to dinner with my husband. Saturday night, we had friends over for dinner. And Sunday, my family went to the park. We had a great time. Today is back to school Boo!
