A Sweet Day


*Comments are now close, because I'm working on drawing a winner!* 

{you might just want to stick around for a very sweet giveaway}

They say time flies when you're having fun.

I can't believe I've been blogging for a year.

Because this is my idea of fun.

One year.

And yet, it seems like I've been sharing my life with you for much longer. You've held my hand on terrible Mondays and shared in my good/bad news. You didn't judge me when I did this or showed pictures of this. And when you cared enough to help me with this, it meant so much to me.

I look forward to more.  Much more.

In honor of this little anniversary, I'm very excited to announce that one reader will win something very special.

And very dear to my heart. 

This is my way of saying thanks for making THAT family feel normal. Sometimes.

Are you ready?

Because I am prepared to giveaway.............. {please, a drum roll would be appreciated}

ONE YEAR OF SWEET TEA!!!

I know.

For those of you who read often, you know I'm a heavy {sweet tea} drinker.  It's a problem I love having! 

One very lucky person will win a $100 gift card to Chick Fil A or Cracker Barrel  on Friday, Oct. 31 of this week. (And I'm reluctantly withdrawing my name from the pot).

$100 of sweet tea.

Why, that's 80 cups of sweet tea. Oh, stop my beating heart. Or it's 25 one-gallon jugs (one for every other week of the year) of the liquid manna.

Or it's a lotta chicken.

I am not taking a stand against the chicken, per se, I'm just thinking the choice is clear.

ONE YEAR OF SWEET TEA! ($100 value)

(Winner can choose between Chick Fil A and Cracker Barrel based on location. And if you don't live near one of those, we'll find some good sweet tea for you).

All you have to do is leave a comment and tell me how long you've been blogging or been reading blogs (everyone is eligible).  AND you can get a double entry if you subscribe to my blog. It's free and you just have to click below and follow the directions! (Make sure you mention if you're a new subscriber or already subscribe in the comments).


If you don't win, you can drown your sorrows in my sweet tea recipe.

This giveaway was made possible by some very special sponsors, thank you!

Now, since my blogoversary happened to fall during the week of Bloggy Giveaways, click the following link to find more fabulous giveaways!

Hi! I'm a new subscriber. I've been blogging for a little over two years now. I've been reading blogs for almost that long as well. Though I admit my addiction has only increased over time.

I started blogging a few years ago, but on Myspace, I had no idea about the real blogging community until later. I finally made the switch in May of 08, and found you shortly thereafter and subscribed as soon as a friend told me about the ease of Bloglines. I have over 80 subscriptions, thankfully not everyone blogs everyday.:) Sweet Tea, YUM!

Happy Blogiversary!!I've been blogging just over two years and our family loves ChikFilA!! And sweet tea? Oh my. The boys have been bonkers for it for quite awhile now. Actually, I grew up on it, but living in Colorado, it wasn't a lovely southern tradition, it was my dad puts WAY more sugar in the beverages than other people. LOL!! :D Little did I know, it was a real, honest-to-goodness southern treat.

Oh yes, I also subscribed :D

In my house...sweet Tea is a staple product! We drink very little cola's! Maybe it's because we are from the south! In my travels, I noticed that we drink more tea in the south then any other place, or maybe i'm looking in the wrong place....from the look of your blog..I'm thinking i might be wrong! hahah

SWEET giveaway! I have been reading/blogging myself for over a year now. I love me some Cracker Barrel, food and shopping..what more do you need.

Carolina Mama said...

It's unusual but I started writing blogs before I started reading blogs. Seriously. That was summer '06 - two years ago.

I had to learn a lot on my own then and there wasn't such a blogging boom back then.

Of course, I've loved it from the get-go. Had to get used to what was then a more unconventinal medium.

You know I read you regularly but those readers and things really drive my Mr. Mac crazy.

Could you just go ahead and blog on that for me? Because I am surely one of two people left in the blogging community who do not use those feed burners. I actually tried and had 700etc. messages trying to download at all times?

Suggestions?!

Sweet tea fans we are. THanks much!

Wendy (Sweetie) said...

I am also a SWEET TEA drinker and have been all of my life. Being from Virginia but living in Connecticut has had it's drawbacks because they have no clue what Sweet Tea is. But, I always have a fresh pitcher made in the refrigerator at all times. I only use Lipton teabags to make it.

McDonald's and Panera Bread have finally come out with sweet tea and it's not half bad.

I would absolutely LOVE to win a gift certificate to Chick'Fil A. I grew up with that. Can you say pickles on a chicken sandwich? We're going back down south for Thanksgiving and it would be great to stop in and get my Chick Fil A fix.

Thanks for the giveaway

I live in Alabama and if you don't drink sweet tea then you just ain't a real southerner. You're just one of those Yankee transplants trying to pose.

Oh my goodness, this giveaway is PERFECT for us! We love Chick -fil-a... that's like one of the only places my 4 year old will eat and one of the only places all 4 of my kids are happy with! Plus, we are already there having to spend money AT LEAST once every other week - if not more! And yes, I always get their sweet tea :)
I have been reading everyones fabulous blogs for about 2 years now!

I have been reading blogs for about 1 year. I just started one last month but I keep forgetting about writing on it. Whoops.

Rachel R. said...

I have been blogging since - I think - late 2005. I guess I must've been reading for longer, or I wouldn't have known what a blog was. :)

I'm not a tea-drinker, either, but I loove Chick-Fil-A. :D

Wow, wow, wow! A gift card to CFA??? CFA is the bomb in our house! When I was pregnant it was the only fast food I wanted... and I wanted it almost EVERY single day! I love them!

Happy Blogiversary!

I've never blogged, but I've been reading blogs for a couple of years now. I've never had one that I followed, I usually visit on a friend's recommendation to read a particular entry. Thanks for the contest!

Wow! 558 comments for sweet tea! Just wondering how many of these entries are Southerners. I acquired my love for sweet tea while living in Florida. I'm a Michigan girl and Northerners don't usually enjoy sweet tea.

Michigan has both Chik-fil-A and Cracker Barrel. I'm ready with my Michigan addy...oh, and I like the new blog design!

Patti said...

I've been blogging since April & am about to post #100 with a new header.

Cracker Barrel for me if I'm chosen.

Glad to have found another fun family.

Oooh! Sweet tea!! Yumm! Here in Texas it is a staple! I have only been blogging this year, but we love it!

Shelly Wildman said...

Put me down for TWO entries (I subscribed!). Hooray!

I can't really do Chick-Fil-A because I live, sadly, where there are none. We do love to stop at Cracker Barrell when we travel, though.

I've been blogging for four months now and I love it. So much fun!

Hi

I just signed up for your RSS feed (alexandtristanmerz at yahoo dot com).

I've been reading blogs for about 2 1/2 years now. We were stationed overseas, in a lonely/isolated location, and one night, I started following links, and now I have an addiction! :)

Lisa Knight said...

I have been blogging for almost 2 years! But I was reading blogs long before that!

I have only been reading blogs for about a year. I love Chicken Chick Fil La (as my daughter calls it!!)

Poppyseed said...

I started reading blogs this summer during an online professional development course I took and yours was one of the first that I subscribed to. :) I started blogging myself about a month or so ago and I'm addicted. If I ever got 600 comments on a post of mine I just don't know what I'd do! Although the odds aren't good, someone has to be the winner so here I am Mr. Random Number Generator...pick me!!!

Unknown said...

I can't believe there are this many responses for sweet tea! I mean, everybody loves it, but who knew.
I've been blogging for about 3 months and found your blog sometime in that 3 months.
And I'll subscribe to your blog. I didn't even know you could DO that, that's how newbie I am!

Lisa Garner said...

Congratulations on you 1st anniversary!! I've been blogging for 9 months and reading blogs for over 2 years. And I love sweet tea!!

Jackie B. said...

I am quite new (about 3 months)to blogging but I am already addicted. I do not have my own because I am not much of a writer but I read several of them every day. I happened upon your blog thru the bloggy carnival and from what I see this is my kind of blog. As for sweet tea, I think it is the best. Congrats on your continued success and you just reeled in another subscriber!

Unknown said...

Oh my Lands that is A LOT of tea! HA!

I've been blogging since November of 2006. Almost 2 years for me! And yes, it goes by super fast!

Happy Blogiversary! : )

The Mom Jen said...

Been blogging since March, reading blogs for about a year now, thanks so much for the chance!

Debbie said...

Isn't blogging addictive and fun? I am a relatively new reader, but enjoy your honest and funny take on your life.

We don't have a Chick-Fil-A up in our neck of the woods, but we have a wonderful Cracker Barrell and I love sweet tea. Please count me in.

Dallimomma said...

I'm not a blogger myself, but I've been reading them for about 3 years. Thanks for the great giveaway.

Michelle said...

I've been blogging only for a few months, and I find it really addictive!

FaithfulMommy said...

Congrats on one year of blogging! Well I've been reading blogs for 5 years or more and I feel a little nudge . .. so I might start a blog soon. Thanks for a great giveaway. Sounds yummy!

Wow! What a great giveaway!! My son and I are moving to Idaho from Los Angeles on Thursday with just what we can fit in the car. And I'm telling you, Cracker Barrel is one of the reasons I am so excited to move :)
This would be wonderful!

Jessica-MomForHim said...

I would love to win the Chick-fil-A!!
Thanks!

Ursula said...

I've been blogging for over 3 years now to keep my family world wide updated on my son-initially due to his medical conditions, but now just to check in on what we're up to.

I hope I win-I'm close to both Chik and Cracker Barrel...and as a transplanted northern girl, Cracker Barrels chicken & biscuits on a cold day makes me feel at home (not dissin' the sweet tea, tho).

Jessica said...

Love, Love, LOVE Chik-fil-A!!! I've been blogging for almost 2 years and it has become quite an obsession! Cute photo at the bottom!

DEY said...

I'm still trying to get started in blogging. I've had my blog set up for a few months, but haven't started writing yet. Thanks for the great giveaway - I love Cracker Barrel.

Mommy 2 Monkeys said...

I'm new to blogging, only about 2-3 months now and I'm off to a slow start.

Ren said...

I started blogging July of 07, but have lately been blog stalking more than posting on my own blog. What can I say? It's addicting.

Dana~Are We There Yet? said...

I blogged for about a year, then took off for about a year, and I've been back at it for a couple of weeks.

Sweet Tea is pure amber gold from heaven, proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy. Thanks for the chance to win!
