On Tuesday I noticed...OH MY WORD. Three more posts and it will be my 100th!!! So, in honor of 100 posts, I will have a give away!! (The winner will be picked in a random drawing from random.org.)  This is what the winner will receive:
My daughter monograms these great *waffle* towels. I use mine in my kitchen and at my bathroom sinks! You will win two of these and can have them monogrammed in any color,with one initial or three.
Leave a comment to enter. I'll end the contest on Saturday morning, April 11. You do not have to have a blog to enter. Just make sure you leave me an e mail address so I can get in touch with you.

Thanks for stopping by my blog. Your comment was so sweet! I'm impressed by your 100 things! And I have to say, my fingernails also, always look bad!! And my toenails!
ReplyDeleteI had not blogged in days because it was number 100 and I was not blogging until I had time to sit down and do 100 things about me. I read yours last night and it motivated me to get it done. I was up until 1:45 am. Happy 100th to you... Please enter me for the giveaway. Have a great Easter weekend...
ReplyDelete100! WOW!
ReplyDeleteCongrats.
Okay....numbers:
4, 16, 40, 56, and 75. Yep, me, too!
Oh, and the fingernails one!
Many hugs to you.
Everyone should be lucky enough to have a mom/mom-in-law like you!
And, like Elizabeth, I can NOT believe you have never thrown up. Really? I mean, really-really? Wow. That kind of control is impressive!
PS. I can never FIND my lipstick. I think it's under the blankets in the back of the SUV.
ReplyDeleteAnother giveway!Fun! Maybe this time I will win. I was only one off last time and if my comment had been a minute later I would have been the winner. I am pretty competitive. Can you tell?! Hope you have fun with G,A and EC! Happy Easter to you all!

ReplyDeleteI've been a bad blog friend lately. Shame on me, but life has been crazy, but in a good way. I've had fun catching up with you though. I loved reading your 100 Things About Me...we have lots and lots in common. But girl...would you really take coconut or lemon over chocolate? Really? That's just not right. LOL Gosh, I hate I missed out on your giveaway, but I'm so glad our friend Tonja won.
ReplyDeleteHappy Easter too you and your family.
Hugs!
Kat
