On Winners and Waiters

In true keeping with the random nature of a junk drawer, I have two things to share today.

First, we have a winner in our commenting contest! Thank you to the 32 comments that have been left on the new site! It feels good to be "home" in this new layout. Consider your comments the lavender-scented shelf paper. It's starting to feel much cozier!

Oh yes. The winner. (Listen to me ramble. Yikes!)

I like the new layout--very nice! I'd also love to win the BB&B card. It's such a great place to shop for the home!

I couldn't agree with you more. So a $20 gift card will be mailed to you as soon as you click here and send me the address where you'd like to have it mailed. And to all of you Heather-impersonators, I shall not be fooled.

Finally, to those of you who have graciously asked for an adoption update . . .

One month ago this week, we received notification that our paperwork is completely finished overseas. Our jubilation has been tempered by the fact that it continues to collect dust on a desk somewhere. We haven't seen it yet. Hopefully soon. Next week marks 2 years since we began this journey.

And that's the lid on today's junk drawer--
