I really love being told I'm a winner.
Yes, it's true. I was the winner in the amazing Suzie the Foodie's $100 Shopping Spree Giveaway at CSNStores.com. I am grateful and happy. What was great synchronicity was that Suzie was on vacation at the beach and couldn't sleep, so she announced it at an odd time at night, and I was up as well. I saw her tweet and rushed to her site to be the first person congratulate the winner and then found out it was me! I have no idea what I will buy but I'll let you know.
Suzie's blog has been so enjoyable for me to read for years, and I have watched her grow and bloom as a food writer despite many obstacles. My favorite thing about her blog is the stories she tells of how she makes each dish. I love how she tells exactly how she does each recipe, her beautiful photographs, and best of all how she recovers from so-called failures and what she learns. She has a special perspective on food and writing--a unique voice--that makes her blog one I never miss even though I currently don't cook with recipes (nor do I cook too much without recipes either). It's just plain fun to read! And Suzie is what makes it most special.
So, visit, browse her site and you'll see what I mean!

You are so a winner Olivia! And thank you so much for blogging about the contest and I love that you were the first person to find out about the winner and it was you. How funny we were online at that odd hour together!

Thank you, Suzie! I appreciate your kind words. I'm glad we are blogging friends :) xoO
Congratulations!
Jane,
It's good to see you here, "stranger". You've been blogging less (at least it seems this way to me) and I've been commenting less and I miss you. You have something in common with Suzie in that you're a fantastic food photographer yourself. I bet you'd love reading her blog.
It's good to see you, Jane.
Peace and love to you, O
oh wow, how exciting! congrats dearest O! love & hugs!!
Thanks Angela and Melita :) xoxoO
