A Giveaway for my Birthday!

July 27, 2009

Technically, my birthday is not until August 3, but I found some really cute summery kitchen stuff at Belk over the weekend, so...

I'm doing my first GIVEAWAY ever!

I totally had planned to do this on my 100th post, but this is only my 75th. However, this is MY blog and it's about to be MY birthday, so I can do what I want to do!

I am giving to one of my U.S.-dwelling-bloggy friends (Sorry, Canadian bloggy friends and beyond...that includes you, my quiet little friend in Belgium.) these cool items:

A pretty wall plaque...
...that has a sense of humor. As if MY kitchen ever closes!
Some pretty candles that look like limes and lemons. Do not eat. (Sorry, I'm a mom. It comes naturally.)
Finally, a set of matching baskets, perfect for storing fruit--who am I kidding? In my house these babies would be holding chocolate. But not for long periods of time, though.

Here's how to enter:

First, just comment on this post. You may earn extra entries by:

1. Following me on Twitter.
2. Tweet about this giveaway.
   
3. Subscribing to or Following this blog, using the followers gadget or a reader.
   

Be sure to leave an extra comment for each extra entry.

Also, if I make it to 75 "Gadget Followers," I will throw in an extra something cool. (Not to be confused with something extra-cool. Although it might be something extra-cool. I just haven't decided on what it will be yet.) Why 75? I was born in 1975 and this is my 75th post, so I'm shooting for the stars here! I was going to just suggest the age I am now, but somehow my followers number went up and over that recently (thank you/I'm flattered/I apologize), so I had to set my sights higher.

The contest starts at 12:00 a.m. on Monday, July 27, and closes at 11:59 p.m. on Monday, August 3. A winner will be randomly chosen and announced on Tuesday, August 4 when my sugar high from the cake wears off. Good luck!
