Welcome back to another #FridaySharefest. Each week, we spotlight a different blogger to help showcase some of the faces in our little blogging community. Our host for this week is Haley Duke.

Hey!!  I’m Haley, a Tampa native.  I currently reside in Riverview with my husband and two children (Rosalyn, age 4, and Harrison, 15 months).  I’m a stay at home mom, NASM CPT, and fitness instructor.  I just completed my second marathon at Disney this month and I’m getting ready to run my 19th half marathon in two weeks.  My website, Haleyduke.com , is all about working towards a healthy, balanced lifestyle for myself and my family.

These are a few of my favorite posts that have been shared this week.  Be sure to share your posts with us even if you aren’t a Tampa Bay Bloggers member and you could be featured too!

To start off the sharefest, I’m kicking it over to my girl Caitlyn from Live Sweat Sleep Repeat. She has all the scoop on how to make the most of this year’s Gasparilla Pirate Invasion – which just so happens to be this weekend on beautiful Bayshore Blvd.  Her tips include everything from parking, what to wear, and how to get through the parade without losing your friends or your sanity.

Amanda, from Meet at the Barre, really nailed the basics when it comes to working with aperture to get that blurry background in your photos.  She dives into her tutorial with explanations about shutter speed, lighting, and manual settings on your DSLR.

Being a breast-feeding mama myself, I just had to feature Alexandria’s recipe for Blueberry Oatmeal Muffins for nursing mothers.  These look absolutely divine and the ingredients are known to help increase lactation.  Head over to her blog at Al2getherfit.com for more delicious recipes and fitness information.

Speaking of delicious, Nicole from Casa de Crews shared a mouthwatering recipe for Buffalo Chicken Potato Skins this week.  Those cheesy potatoes are a perfect option for next Sunday’s big game.  She even gives options for Whole 30 and Paleo modifications.  I may even whip up a batch of those for my crew.

Nanci from This Crazy Life of Mine is celebrating her five year blogiversary with a 5 for 5 Giveaway.    This week she’s giving away two shoe charms from Momentum Jewelry for her first week’s giveaway.  Be sure to check it out and tell her Happy Blogiversary!!!
