April Already?

I cannot believe it’s April already–the last year has been a blur and more so now with the arrival of our littlest one in late January. It truly has been crazy but it’s been worth it! More new baby details later…

We went over to mother’s house this evening so the grand kids could dye eggs. Things got a little messy but they had fun. Ela and I will be dying some more eggs later this week with some recipes/instructions I’ve been meaning to try.

Anyhow, before the Easter comes and goes I want to giveaway a poster signed by Jan Brett. Leave a comment sharing what you like about Easter and you’ll be entered to win…best of luck! Deadline to enter is Saturday, April 23, 2011  at 11:59pm. Winner will need to pick up poster within 2 weeks at the shop. Take care and till then…

Comments are now closed…congratulations to Oralia!

Bull Rider & Giveaway

Many thanks to author, Suzanne Morgan Williams for stopping by our shop this morning for a book signing. We had a wonderful time  listening to her speak about the writing process and publication of her novel Bull Rider.

Get the flash player here: http://www.adobe.com/flashplayer

Also, kudos to Suzanne, it was announced this past week that Bull Rider will be on the 2010 Lone Star Reading List and 2010 Tayshas Reading List. My husband read Bull Rider this past week and he really enjoyed it–he wanted his copy signed to him only.  If you’d like a copy yourself, we have a few copies and signed bookplates, please call 956-968-READ.

I’m giving away two signed advanced reader copies of Bull Rider…just leave a comment congratulating Suzanne for her novel’s recent acclaim by Friday, December 4, 2009 at 11:59pm CST. I’ll be sure to let Suzanne know to read this post and your comments! Take care and till then…

Easter Holiday & Chance to Win!

As an independent business owner, it’s tough to get away from the shop; and3487311267_aaa4535690 as many of you know I am also a teacher. So, when I have vacation from school, I’m at the shop.  I love my shop; however, I need a break from time-to-time and need some r&r, too.

Considering it’s Easter weekend, I made an “executive decision” to close the shop for the weekend and spend some much needed time, free-time, with my loved ones.  May you and yours have a wonderful holiday!

Please leave a comment about what you love about Easter and/or how you spent your Easter holiday, and you’ll have a chance to win a giant chocolate bunny & book. Please note, if you live within 60 miles of the shop you’ll have to come pick it up at the shop within a week. If you live beyond the 60 miles, I can ship it but I cannot guarantee it will not arrive melted/damaged (no replacement)–so only enter if you agree to these terms.  Deadline for feedback is Monday, April 13th at 11:59 pm. Based on the number of comments, we’ll draw a number, drawn number wins! If you win, I’ll contact you via e-mail for your info. Good luck!
