200th post -- and a little giveaway

I was really surprised when I glanced at my last post and saw that it was #199! My 200th post almost escaped me altogether. Well, while I was out and about this weekend I found this little giveway to thank my friends and followers...just in time for the holidays.




I just fell in love with this cute apron and I know that there are lots of apron lovers across blogland.....





....love the colors and fun prints and those ruffles!




Won't you love this for baking Christmas cookies? Or perhaps a hostess gift? As just a tiny way to thank all of my wonderful blogging friends that have shown me so much kindness and hospitality over the past couple of years I'm going to give this away on Friday the 19th. All you have to do to enter is leave a comment for a chance -- let me know you're a follower for two chances.

Thank you all for so many wonderful visits and comments and coming back time and again -- you've really become so dear to me.

See ya!
