I'm guest blogging over at Triad Moms on Main today, so check it out! If you're local, they have great information on just about everything going on in the area for families, as well as amazing directories, advice, anecdotes and more.
If you're stopping by SFC from Triad MOM, welcome! To celebrate new readers, I'm going to have my first ever giveaway. Everyone who comments on this post between now and Friday, March 25 will be eligible to win $20 to spend on their choice of one of my favorite things listed below. A winner will be chosen at random on Saturday, March 26.
Thirty-One Gifts - Cute, stylish, functional, and reasonably priced. This has been the year of Thirty-One, as I've given products for teacher gifts, and bought a lot (a lot) for myself. That link goes to my dear friend Nicole's page, who is not only an ass-kicking businesswoman, she's also one of the nicest people you'll ever meet.
Queen Creek Olive Mill - My in-laws brought me a few delicious bottles on their visit last summer. It is amazing - so fresh and light and delicious. If you've never bothered to search out and use good olive oil, this is the perfect opportunity.
Balega Running Socks - These are stupidly expensive socks (between $9-$14 a pair, remember how cheap I am?) and worth every penny. It's like putting your feet into a cloud, they are so soft. Katie loves to wear my socks for some reason, but she's been told to keep her paws off these. These are all mine.
Calling Cards by Artsy Nikki - I just ordered these beautiful and very reasonably priced calling cards from the lovely Nikki on Etsy. Have your people call my people.
Kernel Kustard - This one's only good if you're local. Creamy, delicious, and in amazing varieties. I love the Lick the Bowl jumble and the hot caramel corn the most. The non-sweet things are pretty good, too.
Winners will be announced right here, so be sure to check back! Thanks for stopping by, I hope you'll make a habit of it.

ReplyDeleteThis may be the only way to post a comment...by saying I'm anonymous b/c I don't have my own blog...I've wanted to comment before b/c you make me LOL lots, but didn't b/c of the lack of credentials. Now that there is a prize involved I had to figure out a way to do it! :)

I am in the same boat with the person above b/c I don't have a google account and can't figure out how to comment! I have loved reading your blogs since we found out about you! THanks for guest blogging on our site. You truly make me crack up!

ReplyDeleteI love free...and like reading your blog.
ReplyDeleteOK, this made me put your blog in my reader. Which I should have done long ago!
ReplyDeleteAnd damn you for enticing me with the idea of those cloud-like running socks. I abhor the idea of jogging or running but I love really comfy socks and now I have to google them.
PS this is Zea, in case you don't know me by my real name.
Your blog has kept me laughing, though I'm disappointed that you don't run Sean down nearly enough.
