What started on a whim as a place to document some pieces of our family life has transformed into a space where friends from all over share their lives with me, and invite me into their lives as well. We have made lifelong friendships, celebrated countless holidays, discussed health issues, and exchanged recipes. We have shared the happiest of days and the saddest too. Thank you, my friends. Thank you! 

In celebration of the momentous event, lol, I am having an informal giveaway. If you would like to be entered to win one of four Amazon gift cards, just comment below. I will draw and post the winners on Wednesday, August 6, 2025. A few notes:

1. Please do not comment as Anonymous. Be sure to leave your first name.

2. If your name is chosen as a winner, the gift cards will be emailed to you.

That's it! I hope you have a cozy, fun, relaxing weekend.
And again. Thank you for reading.
