Thank you so much, bloggies, for all the kind comments in honor ofmy first blog year! And it was also nice to "meet" some of you who
are regular readers, but don't normally leave comments. Today I
will spend some time tidying up the manor, and the hundreds of tea
cups from all your wonderful visits. Thanks for celebrating with me!
I had pre-selected the number 43 (witnessed by WT) for the drawing.
Taaaa-daaaa!! We have a winner! Reya Mellicker left the 43rd
comment yesterday! Reya, I will send you a well loved book or two
from my personal library. If you haven't been over to Reya's
The Gold Puppy, go pay her a little visit. She is a fellow "Blog of Note"
and her thought provoking, intelligent blog is one of my daily reads.
So, hey hey, there you have it, my bloggy friends. Best wishes for a
lovely weekend, all. Willow x
A great selection... and today is Reya's birthday. How fitting! You have a great weekend also.
ReplyDeleteWillow....I can't believe I didn't win your books for the new Porch!

ReplyDeleteCongrats Reya! And Willow, great pic choice. I'd not seen this ad in quite some time.
ReplyDeleteWhat a coincidence because yesterday I looked at her blog for the very first time. Yes, it's all meant to happen.
ReplyDeleteOh Willow!
ReplyDeleteI had such HIGH hopes! Now, I don't think I'll be able to come back ..
... until tomorrow!!
Well done Reya!
Congratulations, Reya! And Happy Birthday! It was just meant to be!You're in for a real treat! :)
ReplyDeleteCongratulations and Felicitations to Reya. I will head over there now.
ReplyDeleteHave a good weekend, Willow. We're off to a Warhol exhibit tomorrow (my V-day gift) and La Traviata on Sunday! (I only brag about this because normally my weekends are sooo uneventful!)

Congratulations on one year, Willow! I've been so busy making things this week that I totally missed out on the celebration yesterday. I'm sure I missed a rockin' good time.
ReplyDeleteA very happy Valetine's Day to you tomorrow, Willow!
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend, Willow--sit back and have some champers to celebrate your anniversary and Valentine's Day all in one. Cheers!
ReplyDeleteYay for Reya! I too read her blog daily as well as yours. Congrats on your one year! Gosh mine is coming up too. Anniversaries are fun.

I am so happy Reya won your very thoughtful and personal gift. Sad for me, of course, but time to move on...as you know, it is her B-Day. It IS in the stars!
ReplyDeleteI shook off my disappointment and visited Reya's blog. How great it's her birthday too! Congratulations Reya!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations to Reya! :-)
ReplyDeleteThat cup of tea looks most inviting.
ReplyDeleteYou find the best visuals for your blog! I love the toot-toot picture! And thanks for the expanded blog list on your side bar. I am visiting them all, one by one.
ReplyDeleteI always feel better after stopping by and reading your words and those of your visitors.
ReplyDeleteThat toot-toot photograph is irresistible!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations to Reya!
Felicitation to you, Willow and the winner of your contest! I will check it out toute suite!
ReplyDeleteSalut de midi
Glad to see my photo found a happy home!
ReplyDeleteWillow I love you blog anyway...I try to read it almost every day but its a challenge sometimes just for me to post every day, I strive for once a week at least. You are such an inspiration to me to keep improving on my blog, and I love the interesting tidbits you add to yours, don't know how you do it. Keep up the great writing.
ReplyDeleteI am THRILLED to win this contest. I always knew Friday the 13th was a lucky day. This proves it.
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to see which book you choose!
THANK YOU!!
Congratulations on your anniversary Willow. Your new blog look is GREAT! And a fun contest - with a birthday contest winner! How wild is that!
ReplyDeleteYay to Reya!!!
ReplyDeleteYou've been tagged!
ReplyDeleteCheck it out on my blog.
nice site and thanks for the drawing. It was fun playing along.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations to Reya, and I forgot it was Friday the 13th until I read it here. Some cultures believe it is a Good Luck Day, and for Reya it was.
