Rebuild from Depression Blog

Congratulations Marjorie. I'll email you and ship your Goody Bag to you next week when I have two more to ship. (You really must get "Goody Bag" comments all the time. You'd think I could restrain myself.)

More Chances (U.S. shipping addresses)
I have the colander right here filled with all of the remaining tickets and I will draw another name on Monday Saturday. Enter a comment here on this blog for another point and to enter this particular giveaway. You can earn more points if you wish (read all about that in the last giveaway post).

I am apparently totally ego-centric in not mentioning before -- U.S. shipping addresses only for this contest. Even a slow boat to Cambodia would be pretty expensive shipping.

People also left comments late on the old post. No problem. You didn't get included in this colander, but you're in the next one. I figure if I can go gray waiting to publish a book, people should be able to enter a contest via an old post.

-->Enter again by leaving a comment somewhere on this blog.<--
(You see I am already bored with actually leaving a comment on this particular entry though that would be the easiest for you and earns you another ticket in the colander.)

Prize: The Omega-3, B vitamin, and magnesium package described in the last giveaway post.

While you're here entering the giveaways...
Over the next six weeks or so as I do these giveaways, I'll make a point of putting new articles on the blog that you may find interesting. I have more videos of Mom cooking and I have some interesting food science tidbits.

In the next few weeks the comment system on the blog should also be getting a makeover. You will be able to respond to individual comments directly and you will be able to set up your own profile. I am particularly excited about the profiles because it will be fun to see who people are and more easily find their websites. I just realized that Diane, for instance, who has commented here during my pregnancy has the blog Peaceful Acres which I had seen but had not associated with Diane. That's pretty cool. We also have:

• Jenny and her great recipes (and a kefir grain exchange).
• Erika's personal blog describing her ministry work and also providing updates on the health of her baby Asher (who has experienced a lot of miracles already it seems).
• Peggy, aka "Islander" with an alternative health message board.
• Barb with a site with her photography (and she made the pendant I'm wearing in the blog banner picture).
• Jen's blog about parenting-related issues.
• Leslie's ebooks on Solar Cooking and Cooking with Retained Heat.
• Gisele's Etsy store where she will have handmade felt items.
• Sharon writes a lifestyle blog for Christian women.
• Melissa is a postpartum doula in Fresno right in my neck of the woods.
• Stephanie has a new food-related lifestyle blog with a great-looking recipe for nettle chai tea that I must try.
• Helwa sells organic vanilla beans and handmade body care products.
• Grains of Hope writes a lifestyle blog.
• Beulah writes a frugality blog Savings Makes Cents which we probably all need right now.
• Justine writes a lifestyle blog and lives on a boat. (How cool is that?)
• Megan writes the "Happy Hippies" blog.
• There's also "Mom" from "Mom's videos" here. She has a website with resources for scripture-based prayer and has a small but interesting catalog of products. (That's my mom of course.

I've probably missed a dozen websites, but I look forward to having profiles so we can find everyone so much easier. Times are pretty hard out there but it is really great that people are sharing their experiences and helping other people get by.

On future contests, leave comments and we'll do this again Monday and then Thursday of next week. Take care everyone!
