Waking Up

Hello!
We have been super busy on the Blu Sparrow side of things. We actually made enough money to go to the eco-craftacular fair but sadly enough we got into issues with chase bank last week that have hindered us from being able to enter at this time. Always next year right?
With that being said our $2.00 sale is still going on. Which is always a plus and helps us while getting everyone the sweets the need and love.


Also going on this week our mystery box is back! I bet many are wondering whats going to be in it this week. So far we have done "Carrot Cake Balls" and "On The Rocks". What could happen next?


We have a new goal for this month also for you guys to keep in mind when you buy which would be a food processor. We figure it sounds awesome and makes cool sounds.

Our playlist for the week will be delayed until later on this week while we try to get everything sorted out with Chase. Be safe!

So close you can taste it!

We are so close to our goal for the month to participate in the eco-craft fair but we need your help!
We cant do this alone...I mean we could but it wouldnt feel as community involved without you guys helping us!


I know I know it seems like every week we are having a sale but thats not true! Its more like every other week....
Anyway get pumped up!!!! Its $2.00 off items in the store and it works like it normally does. If you buy carrot cake balls $2 off and then if you buy on the rocks $2.00 off which means you have saved $4.00 and get to be extremely happy and jolly!

Or maybe you just want to try out some of our new stuff. Which means that now you can try out "The Ex. Boyfriend" for $3.50 after you get your $2.00 off. Which is simply amazing. All monies are refunded via paypal refund!

All I know is that you get some awesome swag for $2.00 off and that means you should do it like you mean it. And by do it I mean buy!

Also don't forget we are a member of team eeat! All thanks to you guys!

So go forth and buy!

What was the mystery item?

If you didnt get in on the mystery box action this week you missed out on...dun dun dun


I know everyone has been wondering about the balls and that was everyones chance to get in! So congrats on the two people who go the boxes!

Now for the good stuff! We are introducing our newest chocolate today which is "The Ugly Duckling". These tiny little guys were not pretty enough for everyone else but well be wonderful in your mouth.
They are a cherry chocolate cayenne making this guys a smooth but spicy bite to chew on. The are also available in our shop today!



So what else is good with you? Oh what? You wanna know A FUN SECRET? Wait until tomorrow *giggles*

Pee Wee's Back and So Are We!

You guys guessed it! Our Mystery Box is back and good Old Pee Wee Herman is at the helm running the show just as he was last week!



He actually got some double time action because the first one of the week sold out in ONE HOUR!Since we didnt even have a chance to catch our breath we put him back up which means what is in him is still going to be a secret until after the second purchase of the box!!!!!

What else do we have in store???? Amazingness(yes this isnt a word) like you wont believe! We have our newest sweet coming at you today also. Its a layer of chocolate followed by a layer of cherry chocolate almond fudge, and then topped with another layer of chocolate!!!!
The name voted on and best suggested by Faeriedtreasures was:
The Ex-Boyfriend! Her exact quote was "It's nutty, and flaky, and it has your cherry!"
Gotta love something like that!

This is an amazing chunk of chocolate that you get. Its about 3 inches wide, 3 inches long, and 1cm under an inch deep. Which makes this insane to contain in one bite or even 9.

Our First

Last night was our first FFF and boy what a night it was. With V being a bit tired from her busy week I took the helm and ran it as blu. We got to interact with alot of the team members and it was all in all a good way to see what everyone else does. There is even a lady who makes candy!!!!!!! I was like sugar candy flavored stick things...SOLD!

With that being said tonight we are having another SNS! Yes I know we are getting into the habit of doing one. It is going to be the same format as last week except maybe there will be a bit more to it. Just means you have to participate to find out what awesome things we have in store for buyers!

Thank-you very much to Double Dipped for lettings us participate in last nights FFF.



Also keep an eye for Sunday. With us having such busy schedules its fun to take a breather from everything and have a bit of fun. ;)

Also what does blu need to do this month? Its going to sound easy but we are looking to turn a $30-$50 dollar profit this month for the Eco Craftacular Fair here in Columbus, Ohio. Thats right all of our profits this month are going to funding bringing blu to you! So help support us even with comments or fun adds on any of the sites we are on. Donate or buy random objects from the store. Also look out for us in the Etsy Forums! We will sometimes post deals of the day in there and that means it could be your day!

No More Mystery

Hey everyone! The mystery box went bye bye from our shop at a very fast rate. We can say within about 25 mins of posting it. Which means everyone gets to find out what they lost free shipping on and what someone else didnt today.


Magical mystery of the box solved everyone :D. Just goes to show what the power of the box can do! Especially when it is holding some blusparrow treats.
What else is new with us? As usual we have been spotted on the web seeing as this is technically where have you seen blusparrow on the web day! We got a ton of people sending us convo's about us being in the gift guide which is awesome and amazing and we thank-you all for that. You guys are all participating and that means we should participate more a bit ourselves?



With that being said we are working on more things for you guys to enjoy. We actually also received a few ideas from everyone which is awesome. Thats great! We appreciate all new ideas being sent to us at:
blusparrowtreats@yahoo.com

We so far have heard:
Moose Munch Popcorn
Sour Cream and Onion Popcorn
Cupcakes
"Something Lemon" (lol I guess we have to guess at that one)
Chocolate Cherry Brownies

And if we have missed something you has suggested remind us and send that idea to us at:
blusparrowtreats@yahoo.com

Mystery Box!

Ok! So who has ever given in to the desire of the mystery box? Some people watch it on Deal or No Deal and others well they just want to know whats in the box!!!!!! Starting this week we will be offering our own "Mystery Box".
Here is how it works:
The first person to buy the "Mystery Box" in our store DOESN'T pay for shipping on the box.


Even Pee Wee Herman is in on this one which is how you know this is an awesome event!!!! So what else makes this sooooo AWESOME???? If you buy another item with your purchase of the mystery box the shipping on that item drops down to $3.50!
Which if you haven't noticed is half off shipping on most of our items.

This is BANANAS! Yea, I said it!!!! We are going to give the most ultimate thrill of a life time in your mouth. YEA, I said that too!!!!!!!

When the box is purchased from our store we will reveal in our blog what the mystery items was...well not us. Pee Wee Herman will!!!!! How could this get any more exciting?????

Actually I dont know but this is pretty exciting! Go forth and buy :D

SNS

Today is the day everyone!


Take a 1.50 off everything in the shop. So if you buy sparrow's eggs take off $1.50 and then if you are all about our cake balls and buy those too take off another $1.50 which means you've just saved 3 dollars on 2 things of awesomeness from our store.
Of course this is all functioned by the fact that you get a paypal refund for taking advantage of this sale. Technically that means you are getting almost 15% of more off on a purchase in our store!

Ahead A Day A Sale Announcement

Ahead A Day A Sale Announcement! Tomorrow we are having a SNS! Lol, yes a Saturday Night Sale. Think of this as our thank-you for your support so you get to take a 1.50 off everything in the shop. So if you buy sparrow's eggs take off $1.50 and then if you are all about our cake balls and buy those too take off another $1.50 which means you've just saved 3 dollars on 2 things of awesomeness from our store.

So thank-you for your support in helping us join TEAM EEAT! Take this time to let us treat you :)

3 Days in 1

We made TEAM EEAT!!!!!! Thanx for all of your support guys! Its just a very positive experience when people give back and put in their heart and others do the same. You guys helped make our dream come true and for that we thank you.
With that originally we were going to introduce a ton of things today but alas our pictures for it did not turn out so great. So we will hopefully be introducing are luscious treat next week with a few others.
Also we completely missed our own where have you seen Blu Sparrow day!!!! The original idea was to try and cram 3 days into 1 but lets not rush this lets take it slow. Anyway this is the calander for the end of the week and beyond:

Whats going down from our store:

Chai Tea Latte: Is moving into the Fall season. The pumpkin spices dont exactly match the Spring atmosphere.

Pheonix: Is moving into the Summer season. Its chilli spices and strong burn might be more suited for a time in which "heat" is the only thing on your mind.

Taco: Also moving to the Summer...maybe. Lol

So here is the deal eventually these guys are going to find their way to the dust bin of Etsy but it doesnt have to be in vane! Everyone can get in on this guys now and make a swift purchase to get in on these guys before they become seasonal!

Also up for debate I personally would love to grow as a store. I am looking for any awesome vegan treat recipies or ideas that you guys are willing to throw at us/me.
Send them to: blusparrowtreats@yahoo.com

Blu With Envy

Today's "Blu With Envy" segment caught me by surprise. I rolled over the image and was like hmmm fancy stuffs...but then I read what it was and my eyes had to back track.

Pomegranate Caramels! Why I have never heard of such a thing. So I figured you should hear about it too!

Now lets be honest here mmmmm. Is just not going to do it. These sweet treats scream to be eaten and sucked on mmmmmmm.



This is by etsy user CaramelJubilee and her shop is more than worth a look through. I think she makes about 7 or 9 different varieties of caramel and that means 7-9 chances for you to pick up some!

Also our feedback sale ended yesterday! Thanx to everyone who participated :D

Ta Da!

We've been talking about it all week! Its our carrot cake balls!!!!!!!!


Rolled into perfection and covered with caramel and cheese cream icing these guys are a dangerous addition to our shop. Especially since our "Team EEAT" sale is coming to an end this weekend. We've got alot of support from you guys and this is what its all about!

We work hard so that your taste buds rock hard and we love that you love us. Lol, if that makes sense of course!



Get these guys in our shop today!!!!!!

Where in the World did you see Blu Sparrow??

Hey everyone todays segment of "Where have you seen us", is actually pretty awesome. We have more than "Mycraft" screen shots. This one was taken from another Etsy users blog. We were one of the top things she loved for the week/day. Which is awesome.

Also a bit of a header before we fully get into this. Captchas are not loading on blogger. I have actually been reading most of your blogs but I cant respond as long as you have a bottom loader. To avoid this problem with our blog I changed our comment setting to "Full Page". So if anyone has been wondering why I haven't been commenting thats why. So until Blogger fixes this bug this is our comment format. We apologize to anyone who thought we were ignoring them.


Anyway the first picture that we have for today is from:
Art Whims


If you click Art Whims name you go to her etsy and if you click the image you will go to her blog.
5 things about Art Whims:
1. She makes the most cute owl magnets ever. It reminds me of the tootsie pop owl. Mmmm, childhood memories.
2.She makes these things called washer buddies. Now I know what you are thinking why would I need the buddies. If you are anything like me and your clothes turn into a huge mess on the floor a little magnet clarification when clothes washing time came around would help.
3. Her hubby is one of the nations brave few
4. She is completely nice and easy to talk to
5. She rules.

Remember everyone can send things in. You can leave us a link in our convos on etsy or you can email us at:
blusparrowtreats@yahoo.com
Its all about where you see us online at. Take a screen shot or alert us and let us know and we will let everyone know who you are when we post our Wednesday blog.

Here is another one from Mycraft:


Also please remember!!!!!

We were also tagged by myminimocs for the 6 for 6 and this is what I have and I failed horribly. My sixth folder is a webdesign folder that has only xml code in it which means I couldnt use it. My folder next to it is a program launch folder so I dont have any images in it.
So then I opened a folder in which I new there was images and counted to the 6th folder from there and it turned out to be all photoshop documents. Lol, needless to say my job and work owns my computer. So I went into a new folder then to find that there was only 3 images in it. So here is the third image of the 9th folder...

If it burns it must be good! Phoenix Good!

The theory used to be if it burned it was working. A few products come to mind Listerine, weight loss videos, and hair perms. Now all those things are yucky and dont stand for anything Blu Sparrow would be about. Lol, which is why our Phoenix Popcorn is our one thing that burns with spicy flavors from Mexico that even you will feel reborn again.
Phoenix popcorn is for those of you who think sweets are too sweets and milds are too bland. Also consider it for those who just want to have something with a bit more zing!
Its fiery good and its available for everyone today :)

Get Some Today!

A Very Blu Valentine

Happy Valentine's Day to everyone who reads our blog. Since its Saturday us here at Blu Sparrow are going to take the time to pick a sweet we saw on Etsy that we just simply loved and became jealous of. So I guess we should call this "Blu With Envy".


This weeks sweet comes from "asacco9642" on etsy. Our selection from their store is the Vegan Chocolate Peanut Butter Cookies. I scrolled through about 6 pages on etsy before I hit these guys and just loved the way they look. So soft and the peanut butter just oozing out. Mmmm, simply amazing shot of the perfect moment. I myself am not a vegan but this looks good enough for even the most unhealthy omnivore. Which would be me :)
Click the image to go to "asacco9642"'s page :)






Also here is a Valentine's Day Wish from us to you!
