While I Am Gone...



*image eco gift wrap originally uploaded to flickr by tomate d'epingle February 2009

I have been very blessed over the last few months to be the recipient of other people's giveaways.
It is now time to give back.

While I'm away, please leave a comment on this post for a chance to win my giveaway.

This one is a surprise -- I'm not telling what it is.  You'll have to trust me that it will be lovely.

I'll make the drawing for the winner on February 1st.  A lovely way to start a new month.
