Hey, friends! I am giving away this awesome set of homemade washcloths.
I am promoting my scarf fundraiser and need your help!
Scarf information: Scarves are pink and white and about 2.5 inches wide and 70 inches long. To recieve a scarf, simply donate a minimum of $15 to my Avon Walk fund (www.avonwalk.org/goto/kellydawnreckas)
What do you have to do for an entry?
1 entry, tweet this giveaway! Make sure you put @kellycrochets and this blog post somewhere in your tweet, or retweet my tweet about the giveaway twitter.com/kellycrochets (comment once on this post)
2 entries, blog about this giveaway. (comment twice about this post)
5 entries, donate to my Avon Walk (www.avonwalk.org/goto/kellydawnreckas) comment five times on this post with your first name and last initial so I know who you are (and a $15 donation gets you a scarf!)
I will draw a name on March 9th using the random number generator. Good luck!
I have completed four scarves so far and I love them all. If you're interested in one, go to my walk site and, for a $15 minimum donation, I will send you one - just put "scarf" in the message to me!
Please let me know which you would like to see more of!
Seriously, this thing is amazing. Its a 3qt jar with a 4 (YES FOUR) inch blade. It has a 13Amp motor, is faster blending than the Vitamix, has ten speeds, and comes with two jars (one with a three inch blade and one with a four inch blade).
Lets just take a moment to admire its beauty.
Up next, a case of cherimoya AND a case of white sapote. At $50/case, this is something I've never splurged on.
Cherimoya are a tropical fruit that is sweet, delicate, and has flavour reminiscent of pineapple, banana, pear, papaya, strawberry/'berry', dragon fruit, and/or apple depending on the particular variety. The outside is green and almost scaly looking:
White Sapote is a tropical fruit related to citrus. Its flavour ranges from vanilla-y to peachy.
Last, but certainly not least, a juicer. Ideally, I'd get something really high-end, but I've got my eye on the L'equip Juicer. Basic, affordable, and functional. Most importantly, Mary (who doesn't have a fun webpage for me to share with you) says it juices greens quite well.
In reality, I will be putting this money toward:
Student loans
New wheel bearings for the new car
An implant, bridge, or braces - I just had a baby tooth pulled, and my mouth is a mess. Gross.
Most likely, I will be buying new wheel bearings. Any leftover money will go toward more fun things - CSA and a heartrate monitor (or running shoes)
