SimplyUT.com is Utah’s cutest new website and they were sweet enough to feature us today on their site!

SimplyUT.com has a fun and informative online directory for creative businesses within the state of Utah.  They highlight a different company each week, Monday through Friday, and the highlighted company provides a product or service at a discounted price for the day. Soon they will be doing GIVEAWAYS too, which we all love! They also have a great EVENTS tab for fun events going on in Utah and a Local Bloggers tab&mdashyay!

Be sure to add that blog to your list; we love those who help support buying local.

Thanks for the feature, ladies!

The Sassies were recently interviewed and written about over at Utah People’s Post (UPP) which is a site that all of you living in Utah need to be reading. The website is an “online-only news organization with in-depth local coverage and civil commentary provided by public journalism.” I know for a lot of us as busy mothers we want to know what is happening in our community, how we can become involved and also where we can get unbiased informational news. But some of us feel lost on how to make that first step or where to go to do it.  This is a great place to start. UPP is the place to stay informed, become involved and feel a part of the Utah community. A lot of the articles are in written form of course, but there are also some in audio and video form. Those are my personal favorite.

You can read our full article here. Thank you so much UPP for helping spread the word about us! Now, all of you be sure to add UPP to your reader as well!

We are loving all of the blog shout-outs around the web helping us spread the word to fellow Utahns about SassyScoops.com and wanted to share them with you:
…

The ultra amazing and beautiful Lindsey from The R House put together a post featuring Sassy Scoops and we love how she shares our obsession with buying local!

Over at My Giveaway Today they did a cute feature and giveaway with us, they feature lots of Utah companies over there, great site!

TAMN from Seriously, so blessed! gave us a shout-out along with a fun giveaway!

One night a group of girlfriends were sitting in a restaurant booth during one of their too-few-and-too-far-between girls’ nights out. While sharing their takes on local businesses, Vanessa, Quinn and Emily stumbled upon a sweet idea: Why not make this happy evening a regular event and why not share it with all their scattered friends? Each Sassy was an accomplished businesswoman in her own right and passionate about supporting neighborhood establishments. The Sassies loved to call, email and tweet each other and just knew they could help get the word out about the latest tasty, local flavors. So slide into the booth with us…we’re sharing the scoop with you.

For information on how your company can be reviewed by the Sassies and featured on SassyScoops.com, please email sassyscoops@gmail.com.

Words to live by: “We have such a brief opportunity to pass on to our children our love for this Earth, and to tell our stories. These are the moments when the world is made whole.

Local distraction: I’m a HUGE Zupas fan – give me panini and chocolate fondue any day and I’m your BFF for life!Words to live by: “Our greatest fear is not that we are inadequate, but that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that frightens us. We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, handsome, fabulous and talented? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won’t feel insecure around you. We were born to make manifest the glory of God within us. It is not just in some; it is in everyone. And, as we let our light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our fear, our presence automatically liberates others.” ~Marianne Williamson
