It’s about time for a giveaway!

03.05.09

Since I got such a good response from last night’s post, I’m going to do a giveaway.  The winner of this giveaway can choose between the following two pairs of earrings:

24-purple-earrings

Purple twists.

23-pink-earrings

Pink twists.

I’m thinking that as I progress in my beading hobby I’ll try to do a giveaway once a week or so.  So stay tuned!

Rules:

  1. Comment on this post to get 1 entry.
  2. Link back to this post to get an additional 1 entry.
  3. Make one of my recipes and get 3 extra entries (I stole this idea from Katie, love ya girl!).
  4. Contest ends Tuesday night (March 10th) at 9pm Pacific.
  5. Only open to U.S. residents.

Don’t worry if you don’t get a chance to make a recipe – there will be many more giveaways in the future.

Happy Thursday lovely readers :)  And thank you for making February my best month yet for traffic.

    Hi! I’m commenting again with some more entries! Not only did I plug your giveaway on my blog . . . not only did I make one of your recipes . . . I made TWO! Do I get brownie points for that? :) Anyhoo, I made your butternut squash fries (which were good) and your mint chutney (which was AMAZING!!!!!), and blogged about them (and the giveaway) here: http://muffinlovechick.blogspot.com/2009/03/lunch-eats-from-week.html

    Thanks for the giveaway, because I’m not sure I would have tried the chutney if not for it. And that would be terrible because I’m officially addicted! Three of my last five meals have incorporated the chutney in a big way. Thank you!!
