Post 500

According to Blogger, this is my 500th post. That calls for a giveaway!!! And, the giveaway includes things that represent what I like to post about here on Blackberry Rambles. The only thing not included is something to represent the children (hmmm....maybe I should award a free day of their company).

Here's what I have for the giveaway:

1 felted flower (color to be determined or of your choosing)
1 box of Irish Breakfast tea (regular or decaf)
1 set of food photo greeting cards
4 knitting patterns from Christina (3 cardigans and one lace scarf)
1 book (yet to be decided)

Now, for those of you overseas (beyond Canada), I'd be willing to ship the flower and the knitting patterns.

Also, if you happen to win, and aren't interested in the knitting patterns, we can award those to a second winner.

Just leave a comment and I think I'll pick someone on Monday.

Well done Heather! What a milestone!

I've only been reading your blog for a few years after Yvonne Alexander showed me it, I have no idea how long you have been writing it! But I thoroughly enjoy reading it so I hope it continues for much longer!

You are a true example to me of what it means to be a Godly wife, mother and homemaker and you do everything with such a joyfulness. Thankyou for sharing this little part of your life with us. It makes it seem like you aren't quite so far away! xx
