Cast Your Vote: Project Blog
Allison at Reality on Bravo has a unique contest going on to celebrate the return of Project Runway, in which various bloggers compete in an elimination style vote off similar to what happens to the designers on the show.
It’s called Project Blog, and each week Allison will assign the contestants a blogging task that is similar to the task the designers get on the show. Bloggers win weekly prizes or stay in the competition based on a combination of judge’s decisions and fan support. While the bloggers don’t get the advice of Tim Gunn or the gushings of Heidi Klum, they do get to have fun and potentially get more traffic.
As readers you are eligible to win prizes through Project Blog as well, either by commenting on Allison’s blog or by voting in one of the competitions. Each week the prizes will change, so if you are interested in the concept you should check back and comment … or vote.
So why are we talking about this on Limited Edition Foods? Originally I was chosen to be one of the contestants on Project Blog but had to back out due to an increase in commitments related to my day job, but I will still be supporting Project Blog by donating the prizes for the weekly competitions later in the competition.
The challenge for the first week was for each blogger to write a post describing who they are, the concept of their blog, and why they write. If you are interested in checking that out, then this week’s contestants and posts are listed below:
1. Kate, Babylune: “The Blog I Write and the Woman Who Writes It”
2. Randi, Brad Pitt Watch: “The First Challenge”
3. Jodie, Gossip on Sports: “Project Blog: Week One Challenge”
4. Cynthia, TV of the Absurd: “The Five TV Shows that Changed My Life” 5. Winnie, Watching the View: “Project Blog: Why I Blog the View”
6. Sally, Style Fix: “The Fashionable Child Who Writes Becomes the Fashion Writer”
7. Kara, Colorado Review: “Why I Blog About Colorado Travel”
8. Mark, Get Incensed: “Project Blog. Bravo”
If you are interested in following the drama of Project Blog, then you can follow the action over at Reality on Bravo. The first person to be eliminated will probably be announced sometime this week.

Thanks for supporting Project Blog and for the link to Babylune. I hope your readers will vote for their favorite (Me! Me!) and I look forward to winning the prizes you are donating. Just kidding.
Not really.
I hope the pressure at your day job lets up a little soon.
