Looking for Something?

Monday, January 10, 2011

Hurray!!!!

I can't believe it!

We made it to 500 followers! It sounds so cheesy, but I really mean it when I say that I am so grateful for each of you. You keep us going, give us hope that we are doing something worthwhile, and that maybe just maybe we are helping someone get started with their own backyard farm. 
CSN is helping us celebrate by giving away a $60 gift card to any one of their 200+ online stores!

If I won, I would get a laptop messenger bag.
And because they are so cute, I may not even put a laptop in it, I may carry it around like a purse. Look at me already pretending like I  have one. I forgot, this is a giveaway for our lovely followers/readers, not for me. 

Check out these cute bags: 

There are so many other cute ones too, oh and cool masculine ones for the guys too.
This giveaway is limited to U.S. and Canadian readers only. Giveaway closes Sunday January 16th at midnight Mountain Time.

To enter, just leave a comment, easy shmeasy!

Oh, and if you aren't a follower, don't hesitate to become one!

I don't think that I am an official follower from your website but I get notified of new blog posts from your site through my notify.me account. I've been a stealth follower for quite some time and actually won a cookbook from you a while back. I love the book. The stories about each recipe are delightful and entertaining in themselves. I enjoy reading the stories as much as concidering which recipe to try.


Congrats on having 500+ followers. I doubt that my blogs will ever attract that many followers.

Have a great follower celebration day.

Gotta love CSN. I'm not really sure what's in it for them sometimes, but i'd be happy to win a giveaway instead of just host.
Just found your blog and looking forward to following - we're like minded livers and bloggers it seems.
