and the winner is....

...........cassie!...who said:  "i love chocolate chip cookie dough! so yummy!" 

congratulations cassie!  i will be emailing you here in just a moment to make sure you know you won!  your options of fabric are presented here (and will be emailed to you), and you have your choice of dried lavendar or dried chamomile to be put inside for scent!  you will also have your choice of size. the one pictured in the giveaway was 6 x 12 inches (which i realize now i never mentioned).  so, yes that is a big one.  i could make it smaller if you like, more oblong or whatever.  you pick!

thank you to all who entered!!!  i might just have to make this a regular thing, it's just too fun!  in fact...just for fun, i think i'll give a mini rice bag away right now to another one of those who entered in this contest! 

that lucky winner is........mamaTAVE, who said: "chocolate malted crunch from thifty's...yum!"

and i must say mamatave, that is my favorite too!!!  although here in san diego, it's not thrifty's anymore, it's rite-aid, but it will always be a thrifty's ice cream in my heart too!

these winners were picked randomly and completely fairly, i promise!

thank you all!

my giveaway has ended folks! 

i will announce the winner tomorrow, so be ready!  thank you to all who came and tried their chances at winning.  i loved seeing all of the different ice cream flavors that are loved out there!  i will email the winner (assuming i have their email...there were quite a few who didn't leave it, so i'm hoping i can still get ahold of you with a simple "reply" click) tomorrow with the choices of outer fabric for their rice bag as well as the scent that will go inside.

i just might have to do more of these giveaways, requiring random answers to questions.  i really enjoyed this!

may giveaway day!!!

it's been a ridiculous few weeks/month and i completely forgot to post anything about may giveaway day, which happens to be TODAY!!  this is a day when sewmamasew hosts loads of crafty giveaways by tons of bloggers all over the world.  i signed up and then promptly forgot about it.  one of the punishments for such actions is sewmamasew takes you off their list of giveaway blogs.  eek!  boo-hoo for me!  i'm so lame.  (revision:  i was added back on, hooray!)

soooooo....short story trying to get shorter, i'm still going to give away something (what i originally planned on giving away in the first place).  you (yes, you) have a better chance at winning because 100+ people already visited here yesterday before i posted the giveaway, and couldn't enter obviously because of my lameness.

i will be making a homemade rice heat bag made of muslin, which comes with an outer covering (with a decorative fabric) which you can wash.  you will have your option of chamomile or lavendar inside for scent as well.  yes, this means that i will custom make it just for you!  yipee!!!!!!  just give me a few days to make it and then to ship it off!

the picture below is of another rice bag that i've made.  i will make one just like it, only different fabric, which the winner will later choose from a variety i have here (just as cute as the one pictured!)(ps, sorry for the bad quality pictures...i just snapped these real quick...it's dark and there's no great lighting at the moment).

how to win said rice bag?  just leave a comment on this here blog telling me your favorite ice cream flavor.  easy, right?  oh- and leave your email so i can contact you if you are the lucky winner!  if you want to give yourself a better chance, become a follower of the blog (and let me know in a comment!).

giveaway ends 9pm (pst) on may 25th!

ready, set......go!!!
