I am so excited! I won a $100 Home Depot Gift Card on Dave's blog, The Home Garden. I never win anything so I was truly ecstatic to win this. In case you don't know, Dave has been involved with a building project through Better Homes and Gardens and Home Depot to build a project in a 48 hour time period, using materials from Home Depot for $500 dollars or less. He built a beautiful arbor as an entry way to a garden on his property and he did an amazing job! Since this was a contest for Dave too, he has asked that we all log into BHG and vote for his project. He may win an additional $5,000. You can vote daily! Think of all the great things you could do with a spare 5 grand! I know I could happily spend it! I haven't decided quite how to spend my new found wealth but I have a feeling I will likely be painting the new chicken house with the funds! Thanks Dave! (and the chickens thank you!)
Also, I have a GIVE AWAY on my blog too! If you just leave me a comment at the end of that post, telling me what the greatest thing going in your garden is now, I will enter your name in a hat on Sunday evening and the winner will be announced on Monday morning. Please add a way I can get in touch with you too! You have the opportunity to win the latest and greates Ball Blue Book Guide to Preserving and a couple little extras. So head on over and add your entry!
Congrats on your win! What perfect timing since you are finishing up the chicken house. Let us know what you decide to buy!!!

Whoot!
ReplyDeleteAnother project goes on your list :)
YOU WON! YOU WON! YOU WON! Congratulations Heather you really deserved it because you are such a hard worker. Now ya have to start another project! LOL The only thing I can think of that would have been better than you winning would have been me winning. ;-)
ReplyDeleteWOW!
ReplyDeleteI think I never win anything before either, haha! Congratulations, Heather!
Yay! So shoul I be looking for posts on your picnic table project. ;-)
ReplyDeleteYou lucky girl!!!!!! I want to learn how to can so...PICK ME, PICK ME!!!!! The best thing in my garden right now....this minute is my bat face plant...I think. BUT if I get home and my dinner plate dahlia has bloomed, then it will blow the socks off the bat face plant. Have a good weekend
ReplyDeleteCongrats...and happy painting! :-)
ReplyDeleteGo Heather!!!! Maybe you've started a Blotanical trend, and I'll win a MacArthur Fellowship this year! (Or at least the lottery.) Well, I can dream, right?!!
ReplyDeleteWahoo! Congrats on the win. That will be lots of fun to spend!
ReplyDeleteCONGRATS! CONGRATS! CONGRATS!
ReplyDeleteHeather, congratulations! Go and have fun! You can get a lot for that amount! I am very glad that you won!
ReplyDeleteCongrats Heather, I know you'll have fun spending it!
ReplyDeleteYou go girl! There is no better time for an unexpected windfall than May. I hope you won't be entirely practical with your winnings. Buy yourself something nice. :) (Then tell us what it is. Bossy aren't I?)
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful thing for you! Terrific. The joy of the utterly unexpected win!
ReplyDeleteThe best thing going in my garden right now is. . . the bees! I know that they're not strictly growing like plants, but we'd be much poorer without them, in every sense, and they are booming this spring. I can thank them for the raspberries, the plums, the kale, the sunflowers (later) and on and on. Enjoy!
That's fantastic! Congratulations!!
ReplyDeleteI am happy for you Heather. You work so hard and make it all sound like a lark. Good for you.
ReplyDeleteAlright Heather!! That is wonderful. Now your chicken coup will be the nicest one around those parts. You really inspire me with all you do in your garden. I just don't have that vision, so I've hired a landscape designer and I meet with her this coming Tuesday to see the design for the front and backyard. I can't wait. We had to cut down the last tree in the front yard this past winter...so sad, and we just pulled out all of the shrubs in the front yard, so all we have is grass right now. Kind of depressing. What I did plant was a Boston Fern, and some Zinnas in pots on the front porch. The neighbors are getting anxious for us to do something with the front. I keep telling them I'm waiting for the designer to bring the plans, and I know the house looks ugly right now, and I'm working on it, shesh!
ReplyDeleteAnyways, I am really pleased you won! Who couldn't use a gift card from HD. I know I could.
Love you,
Aunt Robin
hooray! so are you ready to start building?
