IT'S A GIVE AWAY!!!

GIVEAWAY CLOSED!
Hey all of you!  I am so excited about this post!  Back in June when I was home for my sister's wedding I had several people comment about my food blog.  Since then I have continued to hear from different sources that there are many who follow and love to see what cookie I am making for "COOKIE MONDAY" and also to get meal ideas for their families.  I have had people send recipes for me to try and post also.  THANK YOU to ALL of you! 
I really do enjoy creating menus and cooking them up....the clean up is a different story.
Back in June I was trying to come up with some new thing for my blog.  I decided I wanted to do some GIVE AWAYS!  Yes, that's right!  Some GIVE AWAYS!  I have some ideas for them that I think are fun.  Not sure how often I will do them, so you will have to keep coming back to see what they are and when I do them.
For my FIRST GIVE AWAY I made an APRON!
Every Cook needs an APRON!
Here's Brindley modeling the APRON for me.
It looks a little big on her because it is an adult medium.  It's got big front pockets and has an adjustable kneck strap!  I love how it turned out and will definately be making some more!
*******************************
So, to enter for a chance to win this APRON, all you have to do is:
1.  Leave me a comment and tell me what your favorite kind of COOKIE is!
2.  For another chance to win, become a FOLLOWER by clicking the follow button on the right sidebar and sign in!  (Leave me a comment telling me that you are a follower.)
3.  For a third chance to win, post about this GIVE AWAY on your BLOG or FACEBOOK!  (Leave me a comment telling me you posted on BLOG or FACEBOOK so I can go check out your POST!)
**Leave a seperate comment for each chance to win.  3 chances total.**
This GIVE AWAY will close FRIDAY the 24th at 12:00 PM!

    Finally! A food blog that is doable for a regular family. I am so glad Jim posted this on FB. I am totally a follower now, I love chocolate crinkle cookies (you know, the ones with the powdered sugar on top), and I will repost on my FB wall which you can ask Jim for verification on. Thanks so much for making a weekly menu that is useable!

    Now that is a hard question...how do you pick a favorite cookie? There are so many choices. If I had to pick one of the "top choices" Oatmeal chocolate chip would be up there.

    My favorite cookie is too hard to narrow down- honestly it is. However, I love applesauce choc. chip, pumpkin spice and snickerdoodles the most. I have also become a FOLLOWER but didn't know if I needed to do a separate comment? :)
