100th Post Celebration & Bloggy Giveaway!

little Donna and a HUGE doll
It’s hard to believe that I have already blabbered enough to celebrate my 100th post! And, it is especially sweet for this milestone to come around today, the one-year anniversary of my retirement! As you may have guessed, the little girl pictured above is me, many eons ago, grinning from ear to ear and proudly showing off a prized doll. Notice the bandaged knee? Some things never change, LOL.

I am very grateful to my friends for cheering me on and making blogging so much fun! As a special thank you, I am hosting my first bloggy giveway! I have two prizes: a cookbook by Rachael Ray and a stitched ornament made by yours truly. The cookbook is new, with no food stains or coffee rings, LOL. The redwork ornament features an energetic rabbit, as a remembrance of Marty, my official blog greeter. The stitching has been antiqued to give it a vintage look.

do you want to win one of these giveaway prizes for my 100th post celebration?

Here’s how to throw your name in the proverbial hat:

  1. Leave a comment on this post, and tell me which prize you would like to win. If you live outside the U.S., you will be eligible for winning only the ornament.
  2. For an additional entry, put a link about this giveaway on your blog and tell me in your posted comment.
The last day to enter is Sunday, October 5. Good luck, everyone, and thank you for visiting and chatting with me!

    I would love either one of them but I know I would put that cookbook to good use. Rachael Ray won me over in the last year and I really like her style of cooking!

    Thank you, Kim, for entering and being one of my dear blogging buddies!

    LOL, I remember when the picture was taken. That doll was as big as me!

    Since you like both of the prizes and you'll put a link in your blog, I'll put your name in the hat for each one, OK? Good luck!

    Way to go, Donna! You are a great blogging friend. I so much appreciate the encouragement you've given to me since our meeting via the Brenda's photo challenge. I always look forward to reading about you and your adventures. I do want to be in your give-away. Both prizes look great. So I'll post a link in tomorrow's post. That way I can be entered in each drawing.

    I love that picture!! It reminded me of a picture of myself at a similar age with doll in tow. I'll have to see if I can find it, scan it, and post it sometime.

    Happy 100th post and happy retirement anniversary!!

    Enjoy your day!

    Oh boy, I'm torn. I love the ornament - it's quite like some I used to make, before the eyesight got so bad that the eyestrain is just too much to take. On the other hand, I love Rachael Ray (and not just because we share last names!) However, I'm supposed to be on a diet, so I suppose I really shouldn't have the cookbook. (On the other hand - what's that, three hands? - sometimes reading a cookbook can help me actually keep ON my diet. What a quandry. Well, I suppose if I have to pick one, I'll say (eenie, meenie, miney, moe) the cookbook. (Unless the ornament...) This is what happens when you make people choose between too very nice items!

    Christina - xristya@rock.com - I would love to win the stitched red jumping rabbit ornament! It's lively and lovely and reminds me of a little rabbit that used to live behind the hedges on my front lawn that I nicknamed Superman because he threw out his front paws
    when he hopped! Happy 100th Anniversary, also, and I too had a very large doll like the one in your photo when I was a little girl!
