Giveaway Preview

This morning we got a dusting of snow. Knut was a little discouraged that it will make harvesting difficult this morning. We’re both a little bummed that he won’t have Thanksgiving off tomorrow. They are planning on stopping for turkey, but that’s about it. They were hoping to have a good day today, so that the grain dryer would be overloaded tomorrow, buying them some time to stop and share Thanksgiving dinner with the family. With the dusting of snow, it will make “backing up” the dryer a bit more difficult. Thus, they will feel more guilty stopping tomorrow.

For those of you wondering, Knut said they are almost at the halfway point of corn harvest.

Although, the snow is beautiful! It means Christmas is around the corner. Everything feels out of whack with Christmas approaching and harvest continuing on. I don’t know if I have confessed this before, but I have an addiction to Christmas music. I listen to it year round. Since my family doesn’t share this passion, I restrict my Chistmas music to my sewing room, and about 90% of the time I’m in there sewing, there’s Christmas music playing…year round. Last night I brought out my extended c.d. collection of Christmas music, and not just the normal stuff that I listen to year round. I’m so excited!

I don’t know if any of you know a special event coming up next week. I’ve had it on my calender, because it’s my “blogiversary.” It will be 2 years since I’ve started the blog. I thought I’d celebrate this year by doing a giveaway. Then I found out yesterday, that my blogiversary falls on the same week as sewmamasew’s giveaway day! Since I loved their giveaway day last year, I decided to sign my giveaway up as one of the hosts of their event. Basically, they’ll post several blogs and sites who will be giving away things by drawing, and you can go to all of the sights and sign up for the drawings. Many of the sites are like mine…just simple blogs. Most of the giveaways are handmade, or craft supplies. Mine will be a handmade giveaway. I thought I’d give you a peek into what I will be making:

Can you guess?
