And the Mother's Day Giveaway Goodies go to...

Driving home from picking up the boys from school today:

"Okay boys. When we get home, I'm going to need your help. I'm having a contest - it's kinda like a game- and I need you guys to draw names for me."

"But Mawm! Ryan can't help you with that!" the eldest one exclaims.

"Why not?"

"Because he doesn't even know how to draw yet!"













Please email me your snail mail so that I can get the goodies out to y'all. There are some kind donations still coming in, so I probably won't get the parcels out until late this week. I will also be updating the ParTea Goodies Giveaway blog with all the photos and links of those who contributed.

Congratulations, and I look forward to seeing you have a quaint tea time with the goodies!

And a huge thank you to all the ladies who graciously donated their talents, gifts and heart to this giveaway. I appreciate it more than words can express...

    Risa, I'm sooo confused...I popped over here to thank you as soon as I received your notice I had won, but I don't see my comment now :(. It seems so ungrateful; I guess I must've messed up the word verification and didn't realize it.

    Anyway...thank you thank you thank you! I was THRILLED to learn I won a surprise and can't wait to see my cercie in the mail :).

    Normally I would've posted something about this, but...life's been kinda crazy at my place.

    ALL your sites are fabulous, can't wait to spend a bit more time in these parts.

    Hey Risa, I just figured that out (lol). YOU HAVE LOTS OF SPOTS IN THE BLOGOSPHERE, GIRLIE-q!

    A cercie is a little prize or surprise you give someone else. It's a word my mother-in-law and college roomie use...but no one here (in Tennessee) believes it's a real word. I've tried to google it under a dozen different spellings...but have yet to "find" it anywhere else. BTW, people have googled that word and found ME (my blog) before, lol, so I guess a few people out there have heard of it.

    See? Blogging can be fun AND educational ;).

  18. Robin,
    Good to know.
    I did Google and Webster'd it, no luck! How funny. I thought maybe it was a blog term thang that I wasn't in the loop with....Thanks for the explanation!

    P.S. Why not start a "Cercie Blog" that highlights all the giveaways in blogland?
