The Contest.

So Jenny ran away with my last contest.  Congratulations.  What kind of bread do you want me to bake you?

I have a new contest.  This one is a lot more open ended.  Lots of participation in this one too.  Please request a prize.

Homemade bread
The stitches from my finger
Sewing lessons
Fabric from my stash
A mini quilt
A Christmas stocking
A recipe
Or something else of your own choosing (be creative, but realistic)

The rules: name my potential next child.  No, I am not pregnant.  The name must be classic, uncommon, use a traditional spelling, and be a character in a comic strip or cartoon (preferably the former).  The rules for uncommon are: it should be likely that they will not go to elementary school with someone named that, and probably not high school too.  If  you know only one or two people with that name its probably good.  If you don't know anyone with that name, even better.  Please do not use characters from either Peanuts or Calvin and Hobbes for obvious reasons.

I'd like someone else to win this contest so enter often.

So, is a mini quilt an option for the movie quiz? If not, I'll take whatever kind of bread you make that doesn't have eggs in it. This is the first time I've ever won anything. Thanks.

I finally thought of a boys name....are you ready.....Ziggy!!! I think it flows perfectly with the boys names. And for my prize I am choosing to be creative and request a current family picture. The one I have right now is your engagement pict. (a little out of date) :)

I want to submit another boys name: Odie. I think this is a cute and very unused name. Also good sidekick name.
