Posts that is. Yep, 500 of them. For nearly six years now, I have shown up in this space some number of times per week to share pictures, words, projects and whatever else I thought was necessary. I have written about birds, cupcakes, brussels sprouts and being a teacher. I have mused on motherhood, medical school, cross-country relocation and favorite trees. I have taken you along for walks around the lake, through the forest and on the farm. You have been amazingly supportive and kind and have allowed me to be unreasonably optimistic about difficult things, incredibly sarcastic even when it was perhaps inappropriate, and have cheered me on whenver I've mentioned the need. And, on the few occasions where life made it necessary for me to bare my soul here in a way that I am normally loathe to do, you didn't give me even the smallest opportunity to regret it. Thanks for that. Really.
So, in honor of the thousands of words written here over the years, I have a little present for you. Sweet Nicole from Follow the White Bunny has agreed to join me in providing a fun giveaway for you, my unflappable readers.
Leave a comment on this post to be entered to win one of the following lovely things:
-One of Nicole's final copies of her Castle Peeps Royal Sampler embroidery patterns. You can see another view of the project by looking at the picture at the top of this post. It's really sweet and I love it done in the soft pastels.
- A ten dollar gift certificate to Nicole's Etsy shop, to be used on PDF embroidery patterns.
- One of three copies of Alphabet Glue.
- A copy of the Mostly Marvelous Ms. Rabbit pattern
- A copy of the Semi-Fantastic Mr. Fox pattern
- A copy of the unparalleled and incredibly brilliant Summerland, by Michael Chabon
I'll choose winners via random number next Wednesday, April 13th.
