Greetings!
 Did you enjoy my Birthday Bash? It was a great 23 days and I had a blast giving away all the great online tools, reports, books and of course the Fabulous Facebook Fan Page design. Congratulations again to Fran Houser, of Fran's Microfiber for being the Big Birthday Bash Gift Winner. Fran and I will be unveiling her new Facebook Fan Page by the end of the month and I hope everyone will become a fan of her new page. I'll send you a link as soon as we're ready to do the "big reveal!" There are SO many new things happening and I don't want to overwhelm you by sharing all of them today. So, I'll share just a few and then I'll be back in touch with a few more. Sound OK? OK. :-) To Your Online Business Success!  |

Tasting the Internet
|
As you know, I am switching gears for my business, as I told you in the November 2009 newsletter, with a New Name and New Look. I'm so excited to have a new website and lots of new opportunities for you in 2010!
A huge thank you to my wonderful VA, Cyndi Papia of Office To-Go for designing my new website Tasting The Internet, One Byte at a Time. I love it and I hope you do too. Take a look around and let me know what you think.

Replace your Current Income with Affiliate Marketing Income
|
Part of my online business includes Affiliate Income. That's where I promote other people's products and services and they pay me a commission for any sales that come through my specific link.
Many of the things I share with you through my newsletter are affiliate links, but I have never really known the best way to make this part of my online business excel. So when my friend Tawnya Sutherland of VANetworking.com shared information about a Niche Affiliate Marketing Workshop in Atlanta, I jumped at the chance to attend.
I will be attending the four day workshop at the end of this month and can't wait to learn from people like Lynn Terry, Kathleen Gage, Nicole Dean, David Perdew and many others who will be walking me through how to effectively set up my affiliate marketing business.
And the great part is you can learn how to do this for yourself. They are offering the entire workshop through audio recordings for anyone to learn. Of course you won't get all the one-on-one time that I'll be getting and some of the great giveaways, but it will still be invaluable to learn from these experts how to build a successful affiliate marketing business that pretty much runs itself!
Here's a question for you. How much would you need in income to pay your bills and eat if you lost your job tomorrow, ? You can learn how to earn that amount and more through affiliate income by placing your pre-order now for the Niche Affiliate Marketing System.
As soon as I get back, I'll share some of the great tips I learn, but don't miss out on owning this system, get on the pre-order list today!

A Tasty Morsel
|
I thought I would add a fun little area to my newsletter and share a few of my favorite recipes with you since my whole new theme is all about tasting, bytes and scoops!
This is a quick little treat I served twice during the holidays and it was a BIG hit both times.
Brownie Bytes
1 Pkg Brownie Mix (any kind)
24 Candy Canes or Peppermint Sticks
1 Pkg Almond Bark (chocolate)
Prepare Brownie Mix as directed on package.
Allow to cool
Melt the Chocolate Almond Bark in the microwave for approx. 1 minute (in 20 minute intervals so you won't burn the chocolate)
Then using a melon scoop, scoop out the brownie and form into small balls.
Insert the candy canes/peppermint sticks into each ball and dip into chocolate.
Place on small cupcake wrappers or wax paper to harden
Enjoy!
If you have A Tasty Morsel recipe that you would like to share, email me at terri@tastingtheinternet.com. Include your name and website and a picture of the finished recipe, if you have one.
