I came by to visit because MINDY told me to! But please know that I don't always do what she suggests...but I'm glad I did this time...

I had that Thai salad last time I was there and it was GOOD!

Am I hot? Of course, dahling! I am the hottest brand new Grandma around and...those darn hot flashes! yuck. xo, Cheryl

OK, Cheryl, you won the nifty Panera's card. I'll be contacting you later on today.

Thanks to everyone for playing along. I really LOVE you guys!

Have a great Sunday!

And the winner is "J" from Tales From the Cookie Jar. "J" said this:
"I definitely like a drinkie-poo every night...I mean every now and again. :0"

Me too, J!

we have a winner!

And the winner is...RED BEAR! Congratulations, RED BEAR! In the interest of all that is honest and just, I must disclose that RED BEAR is my sister-in-law, who lives in the beautiful state of Pennsylvania! Now if RED BEAR lived close by and I saw her all the time, I'd say, "Scram, Ya varmit! You're always hanging around and quite frankly, I'm gettin' mighty tired of ya! Ya'll go gitcha own dang potholders!" But I'm not going to say that, 'cause that would be just plain rude. And I miss her. So RED BEAR, you can thank Melany for this pattern, she's responsible for my newest addiction, heart potholders!

**Thanks to all who left MacGyver those wonderful birthday wishes...he really enjoyed them! You guys are the best!

one down & 999 to go...and the winner is!

Yes! I finished a Christmas present! Yippee! This is a gift for....I can't say, it's a secret. But it's so nice to get a project finished in record time. This apron is made from sturdy, almost canvas-like fabric, with nice deep pleated pockets. And chicken-print...cluck, cluck, cluck...

And the winner of the waffle weave apron is...RANDI!

Any apron that I can lick chocolate right off of, is the apron for me! In fact, I will be making chocolate covered caramels will wearing it. At least I am hoping that I will! ;)

For Christmas? I'd (seriously) like a cleaning service. Twice a month would keep the piles o' crap at bay. And, after the chocolate and really REALLY good organic free trade coffee, I'd love a "subscription" to a nails or pedicure place.You can see I'm looking for creature comforts. I've decided I'm worth it!DebP.S. Mindy ROCKS!

Hooray, Deb! I love the idea of a cleaning service, you're brilliant! But tell us more about the coffee and chocolate, sounds like someone has a bit of a "habit." It appears that Mindy has quite the fan club. Being a princess, she pretty much can tell everyone what to do and boy, they do it! Thank you, Mindy fan club members, for entering my contest. And a big "thank you" to those who are not yet members of Mindy's fan club and who entered, but who ought seriously consider becoming one of the Mindy followers. She does totally rock.

Deb, please email me your address. I don't believe that you included your email address for me to contact you. You have two seconds to claim your wristlet. Ha, I make myself laugh.

I just came in from errand-running and remembered that I needed to pick up the makings for the next giveaway, but naturally, forgot. I'll have to get the fixins tomorrow. At any rate, check back Saturday for the next item up for grabs. Unless I can have it made by tomorrow afternoon, at which time I'll post it. I think you'll like this giveaway.

Stop by i have to say... for a holiday recipe, if you haven't already. Go on, she's real sweet over there. She's not a princess...she's an angel.

day to be a winner!

You all play so well together! You're all so nice and thoughtful, saying nice things to me and about my little wristlet. Let me say some nice words about you: funny, creative, sweet, resourceful, amusing, happy, kind...the list goes on! That being said, I am pleased to announce that the winner of my early Thanksgiving Giveaway is...

Mindy! Congratulations, Princess! By the way, you can visit Mindy's kingdom right here. Mindy was lucky #5, chosen by Random.org. OK Mindy, I'll need your address...I'll be stuffing those Pilgrims, Indians and turkeys in the envelope...hope they all fit!

For those of you who did not win, I'm so sorry. I truly wanted you to win! Hang in there for the next giveaway. I know what I want to give at Christmas, but I need to think about now, today. Hmmmm.....

OK people, my blog looks boring, bland, bare-naked. I really need to pimp it out (up?). Trouble is, I'm not sure how to do it. Any suggestions from you way-more-creative-than-I people would greatly be appreciated. I am currently working on my web site, getting it Christmas-y. I need to publish it soon...

Thanks for playing along. Can't wait for divine inspiration to hit me with the next surprise. You'll be the first to know.

day to choose a winner!

Happy Labor Day! I'm happy to announce the winner of itsawonderful first fabulous giveaway! Thank you to all who entered, I only wish that I could give each and every one of you a token of my love and affection. But that aint never going to happen, so you'll have to wait for the next contest. I went to random.org to select my winner...using the numbers 1 thru 18, my trusty friend chose lucky #2. (I tried to capture the screen, I need practice with it, being as you can barely read it, but I tried, I tried).

Laurie Plotz, you are lucky #2, congratulations! All you have to do to claim your prize is jump through 3 hoops, successfully complete 2 backflips, and recite from memory, to me, "The Midnight Ride of Paul Revere." Easy, you can do it!

You all have a lovely Labor Day, please don't labor. Happy end of Summer and here's to Fall and cooler weather!
