I really have no reason for having a contest. Its past my one year blogiversary, it's not my birthday, nothing in particularly special has happened upon me lately, in fact I've been feeling yucky and a bit blah. So I'm having this contest for no apparent reason. Well, maybe one. And that is to let you guys out there who read my blog know that I like it when you stop by, read my blathering-ons and drop me a little comment here and there. Now, here's a break down of what the lucky winner will get:
Yarn: OnLine Supersocke 100 (Summer Color) 100gms/380 meters 45% Cotton/40% Wool/15% Polyamid (the colors look pretty accurate on my monitor).
A really nifty yarn/thread cutter made of "Dymondwood" (from KPixie). Golly, I really want to keep this. It rates high on my "Coolness Meter". You may not be able to see it but there is a small hole on the top so you can thread a cord through it and where it around you neck to keep it handy. The front and back are shown.
A tape measure in the theme of a chicken (also from KPixie). I've fought the urge to yank on the egg. And the urge was strong.
Key toppers. You can now enjoy opening your front door when you put one of these monkey faces on your key.
Did you wonder how I came up with the name of my contest? Now you know. And you too can use the "Devil (duckie) made me do it" excuse when you feel the urge to cop out of an argument. This, however, does not work when arguing with a teenager. These are for the top of a pencil but who says you can't use them as point protectors on some of those larger knitting needles?
And speaking of larger knitting needles, here's a couple pairs of 'em. Valley Yarns Bamboo Needles in sizes 13 & 15 (14" long straights). I love working with Bamboo needles but these days I've become an obsessive circular needler (otherwise known as OCN, just a hair different than OCD).
Samples of Soak. I haven't used these before but I will...oh yes, I will. Now you have no excuse not to do your washing. In 3 delicious flavors: Flora, Citrus & Aquae. Rinse free, biodegradable, Phosphate-free.
Mmmmm...more devilish goodness. When you're in the mood to Pick 'n Choose, be sure to pick with these: Lil' Devils Cinnamon Toothpicks. You can use the rubbery monster finger puppet to test how sharp the picks are.
The last item is the sweetest. No really. There's sugar in these things, let me tell ya! On one of my recent trips in search for the ever elusive Zotz candies (I used to eat them when I was a kid many years ago) I came across the Fizzes. Similar but not quite like the originals I remember. No I'm not giving them away because I don't like them. I bought enough for you and me both. I even bought enough Razzles to share too. A weird candy/gum treat.
And to clarify, the gray bit of fur on the left side of the top photo (go ahead, scroll up: I'll wait...) is not included in the giveaway. And to clarify even further, all the items shown are from a household whose members include cats, dogs & a hamster. I've keep these items away from them, except to take the photos, and they're all new and in clean condition. Sounds like I've sold things on ebay, but I haven't.
Now to win all this loot here's what I'm asking YOU to do:
Leave me a comment guessing what my middle name is. Simple! And I'll even give you a clue: It starts with the letter
"L".
If there are several of the same answers, I'll put your name in a hat and have the Sharchitect draw out the winner's name. Just make sure I have your name (first name & last name's initial, such as Vyvyan N.) in your comment so I can track you down later and ship all of these goodies to you. Enter as many times as you'd like. I'll post the winner's name after Labor Day.
Let the Fun begin...
