This apron could be yours!


Holiday Apron Giveaway

To help celebrate the coming holiday season I am offering this cheerful Swirly Apron, ready to partner in your holiday kitchen adventures. To be entered in the apron giveaway I ask that you go to Yo Momma’s Apron Strings on facebook, click to “Like” my page and then tell me about the holiday treat you look forward to making every year. Or, if you aren’t a holiday treat-maker, tell me about a favorite holiday goody you look forward to eating every year.

For each new friend of Yo Momma’s Apron Strings I will make a donation to the Good Shepherd Food-Bank, a Maine organization that strives to feed Maine’s hungry families. My plan is to donate $0.25 per new friend up to $100 in total. If, by chance, you are already a friend, tell me about your favorite holiday treat and you’re entered!

So, in two simple steps you can be entered in a chance to win this sweet Swirly:

   “Like” Yo Momma’s Apron Strings on facebook
    Tell me about your favorite holiday treat to either make or eat (or both)

Your entry will generate a donation to the Good Shepherd Food-Bank.
The winner will be announced on the Yo Momma’s Apron Strings facebook page on December 1st

Stay tuned to learn who will be the lucky winner.
(It could be you!)

How about a contest?


As I mentioned in my previous post, I learned about a day created to celebrate hanging laundry outside to dry:

 Every year, on April 19th, Project Laundry List joins together with hundreds of organizations from around the country to educate communities about energy consumption. National Hanging Out Day was created to demonstrate how it is possible to save money and energy by using a clothesline.

Because I think this is a great idea I've decided to spread the news by creating a contest to give away the clothespin apron pictured in my March 25th post. From now until April 19th I will accept entries in one of two ways: though becoming a fan of Yo Momma's Apron Strings on my facebook page or by posting a comment on my Apron Strings blog.

All you have to do on either site is post a comment. On facebook you first become a fan of Yo Momma's Apron Strings and then "Share" by mentioning something about the contest. On my blog you will need to post a comment under my contest entry post (dated March 26). I will keep both sites updated and use them to announce the winner. In the event the winner is not within delivery distance, I will cover all shipping charges. There is absolutely no cost to the winner other than participation on one of my web pages.

For lack of being able to think of a more creative method, my plan is to write each entry on a separate piece of paper, stash them in a hat(?) for safekeeping,  and draw one lucky winner on April 19th. If I can get my act together and find a person willing to hold my camera, I will post a video of the event. Sounds like fun to me!

Enter as many times as you'd like and tell your friends and don't forget to spread the word about National Hanging Out Day and this opportunity to win a clothespin apron.
