One World, One Heart Event


Giveaways! Giveaways! That should get everyone's attention.

Lisa, over at Heart of the Nest is starting up her second annual One World, One Heart giveaway extravaganza again this year. Everyone in the blogging community is welcome to join in all the fun. I think I missed out last year and just did my own giveaway after it was all said, done and over with. Leave it to me to be behind. I'm not an early bird kinda person.

But, with all that being said, I am trying to be a little more organized this year. So, I thought I would go ahead and post about it, advertise a little and get as many people together in this blog world. It's a nice way to get to know new people.

I will post this again on February 13 and pick a name (perhaps even two as my record shows) on February 14 from both posts. Also, Lisa says you have to have a blog in order to put your name into the hat. Them's the rules.

I don't know what I will give away yet, depends on where the hub will be traveling and what he will be bringing home (last year was Belgian chocolate). Perhaps only local things will go into a goody box. Something homemade, maybe? Depends on who wins and what I learn about them in this fun process. Who knows. Three weeks is a long way away, for me anyway.

Click *here* to see who is giving away and more info if you are interested in doing your own giveaway for One World, One Heart. C'mon, you all know it's better to give than it is to receive. Let's see how many folks we can get involved! Spread the word.

All you really have to do is put your name in the comment thingy. I always enjoy meeting the new folks that visit that I haven't met yet. That's the point in all of this.

Ok, now off with you! Let's get this thing rollin'!

sandee said...

This is a great idea! However, I just moved across country and have most of my stuff in storage. What I would like to do, is go into as many of the blogs as I can and sign in. If my name gets pulled by anyone as a winner, I will donate $100 to AIDS Foundation in memory of my brother. If my name gets selected more than once, I will up the ante an additional $10 every time it gets pulled (greedy I know, but one can dream!!!) If my name is not pulled by anyone, I will still make a $50 donation. This way, everyone is a winner.
