It's Happy Giveaway Time Again!

Monday, April 21, 2008

Oh, joy!! It's time for another wonderful round of giveaways!! Usually Flibby gives a bloggy makeover... and those are fabulous, of course! But, this time I'm in a reading mood probably because I have the entire gardening section currently checked out from my local library. My apologies to the other residents of my county who may or may not be interested in learning how to grow heirloom tomatoes. You're out of luck.

At any rate, in honor of the written word and because books are my obsession passion, I am giving one special winner a...


$15.00 gift card to Barnes and Noble!!!!!

Be still your beating hearts! I know. I know! Barnes and Noble was created for bibliofreaks like me and now I want to share the love because I'm a giver.

To enter, just leave a comment and be sure that you leave a way for us to contact you either through your own website link or an email address. Our contest will end at 7:00pm CST on Friday, April 25, 2008!!

For other great giveaways this week, be sure to visit Bloggy Giveaways!

Happy Reading!
