Birthday giveaway: My favorite things!

Hey, y’all!

I have been looking forward to this giveaway for a long time.

Know why?

It’s all my favorite things, given away to one lucky (and I mean LUCKY) reader.

(And yes, I’m paying for all this myself.)

Why?

Because my birthday is coming up (Sunday, November 7th!) and the only thing I adore more than getting a gift is GIVING ONE.

So…

That is precisely what I’m doing.

A little gift from me to you to help me celebrate blowing out one more candle on my birthday cake.

:)

A GUSSY Tote Bag ($68)

And last but NOT LEAST…

The FIRST edition of Where Women Cook out on Dec.1st!!!! ($16)

YAY!

Now, what do you have to do to enter this fantastical give away of mine?

I’ll tell you.

One of my favorite things ON THIS EARTH is MY JOB.

I love it.

LOVE.

LOVE.

LOVE IT.

And so…I want to give back to the job and magazine that has been so good to me!

1. FIRST, follow Where Women Cook on Twitter (If you’re already following that is great, just tell me in your comment).

2. THEN tweet about the contest with a link to this post. (If you want to mention me (or follow) I’m @looneytunes. Just so ya know. ;) )

3. FINALLY, come back and make a single comment telling me you’ve followed and linking to your tweet.

You have to do BOTH and it is for a single entry. (What? It’s out of my pocket, I’m allowed to be annoying and picky, dudes. Plus, I’m turning 36 so give a gal a break.)

I know what you’re thinking…”But what if we don’t Tweet! And why can’t we get an additional entry!?”

Don’t despair…there is a way you can up your chances, if you choose. I know that some here would love to be entered and that they don’t Tweet. And, I am also aware that saying you have to “like” a Facebook page to enter a contest is against their Terms Of Service. BUT, you can TOTALLY give an additional entry into the giveaway out of SHEER appreciation for those that are already fans of your page.

So?

After the giveaway closes on my birthday (Sunday, November 7th), I am going to take all of the Facebook Fans of “Where Women Cook” and give them an entry into the giveaway. SO, just letting you all know that. You know…if you WANTED to GO BE A FACEBOOK FAN OF WHERE WOMEN COOK BEFORE SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 7th. (Just sayin’… ;) )

So let me recap those rules:

1.FOLLOW WHERE WOMEN COOK ON TWITTER

2. TWEET ABOUT THE CONTEST

3. COMMENT THAT YOU HAVE FOLLOWED AND LINK TO YOUR TWEET TO ENTER THE CONTEST.

4. COMMENT ENTRIES CLOSE AT 11:59pm SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 7th.

5. WE WILL ENTER ALL OF OUR FACEBOOK FANS AFTER THE CONTEST CLOSES AS AN APPRECIATION FOR YOU THINKING WE’RE GROOVY. (If that means you’re entered twice? Awesome.)

6. WINNER ANNOUNCED MONDAY, NOVEMBER 8th!

Good luck!

Thanks for reading and being you. xo

    I don’t have a twitter account. And I don’t “follow” any blogs per se because I use Google Reader as a timesaver. I did add “where women cook” to my subscriptions as soon as I found out about it. And I ‘liked’ it on Facebook. What a great give away.
    Happy Birthday!
