Snowy Autumn Sedum
It certainly is that time of year...
cabin fever is weighing heavily on this lil Kansas gal.

This morning it snowed a very wet snow, on top of the mud already here.

We were forecast to get anywhere from 3" up to a foot of snow today.
In actuality, we were barely sneezed upon, and it has already melted away.

Now a very cold north wind is blowing, bringing in some frigid temps for the next few days. The silver lining here is that the mud will disappear for a few days! Woo-hoo!
Now, in the spirit of spring daydreams, it's time for a giveaway!
Your spring package will include:
One dozen I Heart You Cookies
[valued at $17]
A full-size bag of Trixie Lou's Cheesers, all-natural dog treats
[valued at $6.75]
(If you don't have a fur-kid, I'm sure you know someone who does!)
To round out this giveaway, how about a $10 Starbucks gift card so you can get a cup of java to go with your I Heart You cookies? (All this talk of cookies... sheesh, I'm wishing I had some on hand right now!!)
The giveaway is open to any U.S. residents who read my blog ~ simply be one of my followers (or become one!) and leave a comment on this post. If you want to promote my giveaway on your blog, simply tell me you are doing so and you'll get TWO entries into the giveaway.
{I wish I could include my international followers, but I simply cannot afford the shipping costs!}
This giveaway is open until Sunday, February 14th at 10:00 p.m. Central time. Multiple comments by the same reader will only be counted as one comment. I will use Randomizer.org to pick the winner on Monday, February 15th.
Good luck and happy snow week, unless you live in Florida. Or Arizona. You know who you are!
Oh my goodness! What a wonderful give-away! This may be exactly what I need to chase way these Winter Doldrums. Your pictures are awesome, Susan. And I'm sorry you're having so much muddy stuff there :( Spring is just around the corner.... that's what I keep chanting anyway!
ReplyDeleteGosh, I have cabin fever too. I'm ready for sunshine and warm air! I want to play in the yard and lay in the sun. Having said that--I love the snowy outhouse photo, its really pretty.
ReplyDeleteAwesome giveaway! Who could resist?! I love those pictures of the snow. We are getting dumped on again. It is beautiful to look at, but I'm not feeling the love for snow right now (only 40 more days until Spring btw) :) Cabin fever, be gone! -Tammy
ReplyDeleteWe love cookies! I'm guessing it would probably not be a good idea to moan and groan about the chilly Florida weather we've been having lately, right? :) At least your snow makes for pretty pictures!
ReplyDeleteOoo, ooo, count me in! People cookies and dog cookies can't be beat! Can Corky submit a comment for a chance to win, too? :)
