Important things come in one hundreds.
One hundred pennies make a dollar.
ONE HUNDRED POSTS make my blog!
That is really exciting to me! For one thing, it is proof that I have had one hundred coherent thoughts. This will be so very useful the next time Adam catches me doing something completely chicken-brained, like setting the house on fire. Not like that has ever happened here or anything, mind you.
So, in commemoration of having a very grown-up blog, I am doing a very grown-up blog thing: hosting my very first giveaway!
Remember that super-cute apron I made several months ago? One lucky winner is going to receive this hand-made apron with a delicious cherry-pattern fabric, in this pattern:

By the way, it's a good idea to know your metric system before taking a honeymoon in Canada, because otherwise, you will order way too much special Canadian tea and will still be drinking it two years later. This is the voice of experience, y'all.

Special thanks to my husband for lending his sweet photography skillz!
Let me tell you, one look at that cherry fabric and the chocolate-brown trim to go with it, and you will be craving a sundae!
(As soon as I finish the apron [which will be within a few days], I will put up a picture of the finished prize.)
