Free Cookies and Such

OCTOBER FREEBIE: INDOLCE DESIGNER COOKIES

So, I was excited to do our first cookie drawing yesterday and got way into it. I actually used a website (http://www.use4.com/lottopick.html) to generate random lotto numbers and came up with #24 which is JADA SCRUGGS. Congratulations on the cookies Jada! Maybe they'll come in handy for Chad's ordination! Contact Samantha Strong at Indolce Designer Cookies. Be sure to subscribe (and verify) to My Gifted Friends in order to be eligible for next month's drawing.



NOVEMBER FREEBIE: BOCA BETH

Beth has graciously offered to give away a free Boca Beth CD "Boca Beth My First Songs in Spanish" CD along with a musical shaker for rhythm fun! I have this CD and LOVE LOVE LOVE it. It teaches great Spanish vocabulary and phrases set to easy to remember familiar tunes like "Jingle Bells". Lainey and I find ourselves singing Spanish and learning words without even trying! Share this blog offer with your friends and make sure to subscribe.

PLEASE PARDON OUR DUST

I am continually tweaking different parts of this blog to make it more user friendly. As I learn and work with it you may receive some redundant emails as a subscriber. Please bear with me as I will try to keep them at a minimum.

Tidying up shop...a few notes

As I'm cleaning around my blog boutique I've thought about a few things you should know:

1. FREE COOKIES details- yes, they can be shipped anywhere. There will be one dozen custom made cookies for any special occasion or theme you prefer- any shape too I think! Samantha is excited to bake them for our lucky winner! (Drawing OCTOBER 22nd. Make sure you are both subscribed AND VERIFIED- if you received this post in your Inbox, you are).

2. A Gifted Friend Baby Girl was born yesterday to Holly Slay. Happy Birthday Abby Camille Slay and Congratulations Holly!

3.Boca Beth has just posted a new video to You Tube. Beth says "This Cup Game reinforces color words in Spanish and English...Kids will ask to play it by the hour!" It is so cute, and really quick (44 sec), check it out here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b7qyN3GJg-M


4. I love sharing My Gifted Friends with you and love that you are sharing some of your gifted friends with me. Be on the lookout for 'friends of friends' to join the blog store soon!

5. Finally, and by the way, did you know that if you return your child's toy out of their kids meal at Chic-fil-A you get a free kids ice cream cone? Way cool of the Cathys. You probably already knew that, but I'm still elated from this recent discovery.

Cheers!
