It's Official!

Hope you get out to celebrate the beginning of the season! Heading out to our garden now to plant some lettuce, beets, spinach and to prepare the potato beds (can never have enough potatoes)! Enjoy!

Wait, am i forgetting something? Now what was it i was supposed to do today? Hmm...OH YEAH! Post the winners of the giveaway! But first, i want to thank you all so very much for helping to spread the word, but mostly for getting better connected on twitter and in blogland. Btw, i'm not really fond of the word "follower" because i think we're all leaders and followers in our own ways : ) I've truly enjoyed visiting many of your blogs and reading about you and seeing the various projects you're working on. So much creativity! Annnd it's extra special for me to see Verna out there being loved.

Speaking of love...i was overwhelmed by so much Burgundy Buttons love! A special thanks to you, Leah, for sending so many people my way. How thoughtful and fun! Good luck to everyone who is entered to win Verna charm packs over at BB!

One last thing...you're right. It's way too hard to narrow it down to just one favorite flower. To be fair, mine would have to be lilacs. But tulips and meadow rue are a close second. And magnolia blossoms, peonies and coneflowers and, and, and...orchids! Anyway, thank you for sharing your favorites. It was like getting a springy bouquet in my email each day. Without stretching this out any longer...the winner of the Verna layer cake is....

CONGRATULATIONS CHRIS!
And the winner of the cherry blossoms takeout containers and gift bags is.....

CONGRATULATIONS ANDREA!
Please email me your mailing addresses and I'll send the goodies off to you!
Happy Spring to everyone!
hugs all round, kate
