The introduction of delivery at select IHOP restaurants across the U.S. is a critical step in expanding the brand&amp;#39;s IHOP &amp;#39;N GO® (to-go) platform which already includes a fully-integrated online ordering system through IHOP.com and the IHOP mobile app. Guests ordering IHOP &amp;#39;N GO via DoorDash will be able to enjoy the full range of items off the restaurant&amp;#39;s regular and limited time menus as well as fully customize any order. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt;

&lt;span style="color: red;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;The American Girl Luciana Giveaway was a success as we had
over 2,000 people who entered the giveaway. This morning the winner was pulled and verified. The winner had posted a comment on one of the participating blogs as that
was a mandatory entry. Her name is Tiffany Schmidt and she has been emailed and
has accepted. Thanks to all who participated, and look for more giveaways. &lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;span style="color: red;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;My granddaughter loves &lt;a href="http://www.americangirl.com/" target="_blank"&gt;@AmericanGirl&lt;/a&gt;. Every year she can&amp;#39;t wait to learn who will be the Girl of the Year. She&amp;#39;s really excited about Luciana Vega, because she loves science and when her mom was a girl she attended Space Camp&lt;sup&gt;®&lt;/sup&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt;

American Girl&amp;#39;s doll of the year, Luciana Vega officially launched on Jan. 1, and is a &amp;quot;champion of STEM and a natural-born leader who puts her whole heart into making her dreams a reality,” says Katy Dickson, president of American Girl. &lt;br&gt;

&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;To many, Memorial Day is a three-day weekend marking the beginning of summer. Others understand the holiday as a way to remember those who sacrificed their lives while serving in the Armed Forces.
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;Observed the last Monday of May, there are ceremonies and parades, as well as the placement of flags and laying of flowers on gravesites to honor the military heroes.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt;

Easter is bringing with it another fun team challenge to help you earn SB from Swagbucks! For those of you who don&amp;#39;t know what Swagbucks is, it&amp;#39;s a website where you can earn cash back on everyday tasks you do online like shopping, answering surveys, discovering deals, and watching videos. You can even earn for searching the web!&lt;br&gt;
&lt;i&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/i&gt;

On this day of Thanksgiving we must pray for those who have served and serve our country. Pray for our troops and their families.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
Pray for the officers who guard us, putting their lives in danger. Pray for their safe return home to their families each day. &lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
Pray for the emergency workers who work to save our lives each day. They try hard to save us even when they are tested with the loss of small kids. &lt;br&gt;

&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;It&amp;#39;s not often that we actually take time to say thank you to the men and women who have served, and are serving our country to keep us safe. I want to thank all of you.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;What some people don&amp;#39;t understand is the sacrifices you and your family make. If wars aren&amp;#39;t stopped overseas, they will come to the United States. That will be a much tougher war to fight. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt;
