Everyone ready for my VERY FIRST GIVEAWAY???
This is a JOINT GIVEAWAY with Lisa from Like A Valentine. We have put together a "Best of the Midwest" gift basket showcasing some of our favorite tasty food items! Lisa and I grew up in the suburbs of Detroit, Michigan. We went to high school together in Ferndale, Michigan. Then, we both attended the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor, Michigan. After graduation, Lisa moved to Chicago and, eventually, I ended up in Bloomington, Indiana.
We decided to put together this joint giveaway so that you can experience some of our favorite local midwestern things! We have items from Michigan, Chicago, and Bloomington. Here's what you'll get:
From Michigan: A bottle of Sander's Milk Chocolate Hot Fudge from Mrs. Smith. This is the best hot fudge I have ever tasted! And Sanders is a Michigan owned and operated company.
From Lisa, you will receive a magic brownie (no, not THAT kind of magic brownie!) from Zingerman's. Zingerman's is a world-famous deli in Ann Arbor, Michigan. They have some of the best baked goods, corned beef, and cheese! If you ever pass through Ann Arbor, Zingerman's is a must-stop deli.
From Chicago: A box of Vosges organic peanut butter bonbons. Vosges is Chicago-based. Have you ever had any Vosges chocolate? If not...run out and buy a chocolate bar asap.
From Bloomington: A package of locally made artisan marshmallows. After one bite, you'll be hooked! Trust me. This is a relatively new local company, and they have been selling their marshmallows at the farmer's market every Saturday. Check out their website - I'd love to give them some new business!
PLUS a whole host of other exciting treats and surprises! All packaged in a lovely photo storage box.
SO! How can you enter? You'll get...
-One entry for commenting on my blog
-One entry for commenting on Lisa's blog
-Two entries for following my blog AND Lisa's - you must be a follower of BOTH blogs in order to get two entries!
-Three entries for posting about this giveaway and referencing BOTH blogs.
SO, you have a total of seven possible entries!
We will be choosing TWO WINNERS, one on each blog. Lisa and I will each choose a winner on SUNDAY, MARCH 22nd at NOON.
START NOW!!!!!
