I enter giveaways whenever I have a minute, and I’ve won some great prizes along the way. But the e-mail I got a couple of weeks ago blew me away: I was just minding my own business, watching TV and casually checked my e-mail on my phone. Wha-wha-what!!!!

Don’t worry, I’m not turning into a food blogger – I just like to pretend every once in a while! Last week while I was checking out at the grocery store, I noticed Better Homes and Gardens Best-Loved Reader Recipes 125 Winners from 1930 to Today. Hmmm….

Are you sewing for Kid’s Clothes Week? I usually try to participate, but this week it just wasn’t in the cards. I’m on my first ever trip to Massachusetts to learn more about my new job (same company, different position).
