A Winner . . . and Winter!

So nice of so many of you to be interested in receiving the pair of Thanksgiving-themed potholders I offered as a giveaway early this past week.

I numbered and wrote the names down on a tablet as your comments came in.

You filled every line plus one more at the bottom off to the side of the list.

This morning I put the numbers 1 - 24 in a hat bowl (recognize the bowl, Susan?) and drew one out.

 (Ugh, blurry picture.  Sorry.)

The number drawn was #10 which corresponds to:

So, wyomingheart, if you will send me an e-mail with your mailing address, I'll get the potholders off to you asap!

Thanks to all who entered.  Wish I had a set to send to each and every one of you.  (I think I'll do another giveaway in a couple/few weeks for a set of Christmas-y potholders.)

Old Man Winter certainly arrived in a hurry in our neck o' the woods!  We had light snow and heavy winds all day yesterday which rearranged the 3-plus inches of snow we had upon arising.  Grid power went off for about two hours last night when (reportedly) a tree fell on a power line.

This morning the sun is shining . . . at least we think it's the sun.  I mean, it's been so long!  Our temp is only at a lowly 8 degrees above zero as we speak.  Good thing we've got that sun!

I'm off now to bundle up, go outside and do some shoveling where the wind made drifts.  In walkways, up against doors, gates, etc.  Why is that always the way?

Wishing all of you a wonderful weekend!
