I've Gotten Lucky

I've been meaning to blog about this win for so long! When I first started perusing blogs it seemed like there was a give-away every day. Of course, I entered a lot! Like, especially on Pioneer Woman's site, but HELLO!, she's got like millions of entries now, so I kinda gave up. But, I came across a give away for some fabric and I just could help but enter.

AND I WON!!

I won 5 yards of Christmas-y fabric from Raspberry Creek Fabric on Etsy. So, it was such a nice give away, I figured I should give them a shout out. Visit her shop and drool over her wonderful fabric selection!



I also won some soap! I've been using Goat's Milk Soap for over a year now. I order from Goat Milk Stuff. Their soap is great! The bars are so huge that I cut mine in half, so I feel like I'm getting 2 for the price of 1. There is a big selection of 'flavors' and I've loved them all. I buy the bars....so, there's no plastic packaging, just a cute little muslin bag. Granted, there is shipping involved, so it's not the greenest of green here, but I feel good about supporting this family business.

So, I just placed an order last week. A few days later I get an e-mail out of the blue saying I won their newsletter drawing so I get a duplicate of my last order for free! Yay! Random and unexpected and a nice surprise. When I wrote the lady to thank her for such a wonderful surprise and tell her how much I love her product, she repsonded by saying, "Oh good, I really hate to send soap to people who don't like it." That cracked me up. So go check them out if you're in the market for a nice and natural bar of soap.
