Happy Birthday Giveaway (CLOSED)

To celebrate my blog's two year anniversary and as a thank you to my readers, I'm giving gifts! I wish I could give away dinner for 4 or something along those lines, but shipping hot meals across the country is a little difficult. The next best thing I could think of was to use my other favorite hobby to create two aprons to give away.



The first is a hostess apron made from one of my favorite Heather Bailey fabrics. It ties at the waist, and the ties are long enough to wrap around and tie in front, if you prefer. I'm hoping this will bring a touch of early spring to the lucky cook who wins it! (The second apron will be given away next week.)



To enter, simply leave a comment on this post before Sunday, March 1 at 11 pm (PST). The winner will be randomly selected and announced along with my Menu on Monday, March 2nd. Sorry, this giveaway is open to US addresses only. Good luck!

3/2/09: Thanks for all of your comments! I've used random.org to choose the winner and I'll be posting it soon!
