LOOK WHAT I GOT!

Back in December, I entered in this giveaway from Stacy's Random Thoughts. I had no idea I won until she emailed me. I love that feeling of winning something...anything!! You never expect it will be you, but deep down, you really hope it is!

The basket looked too pretty to open up.

But, if I wanted the goodies on the inside, I had to do it. What you see here is a Pumpkin Bread mix, three different types of jam, and a mini tin plate. My kids love pumpkin, so I really wanted to make it right away.

I don't have a loaf pan, so I just made it in a regular cake pan.

I'm sure I could have presented it better, but I cut them all in triangles and couldn't figure out a way to put them on there. They are so moist!

You can tell that they approve! We managed to save a couple of pieces for dad.

Another fun giveaway that I entered in November, was for this Rockin' Wall Decor Kit. You just stick them on the wall, and voila...it's done. Super easy, and very decorative!! Thanks so much, Karen!!! It rocks!
