winnings

Anyone who is acquainted with me knows that I love free stuff so March was a banner month for me!

The local library sponsors a Reader's Choice promo twice a year. For every book you read, you can enter your name in a drawing for a $15 gift certificate. I read numerous books and never win. However, this season they also added a free book giveaway for every 5 books you read. I have earned two free books so far and am well on my way to earning a third one before the promotion is over.

I selected the following books:
I haven't had a chance to even open either one so I don't know how good they are but hey, they were FREE!

In addition, one of my favorite sites to visit every day is found here. I won a set of Martha Stewart cookbooks.


I had to try the Chocolate Truffle Brownies recipe from the Cookies one. They had a ganache topping and were sinfully delicious!


In addition, I also won a tie from Give Away Today as well. My husband is happy about that one (oh, who am I kidding? He was happy about the Cookies cookbook as well). I don't have the tie yet so I can't include a photo - maybe later.

Free stuff is good!
