I have to admit, I don't usually participate in this kind of online "tagging" (not that it's beneath me, but let's be honest, who really has the time?). Well, today I have the time. My friend Andy posted this (see below) a few days ago and I was really happy and surprised to see that I was only the third legitimate reader to comment (the first was her adoring husband who CLEARLY doesn't count).
I was surprised, because I love reading Andy's blog, so why don't more people? And I was happy because she is super creative and I would LOVE to get anything homemade from her.
But that also commits me to make something for 5 lucky people who DARE comment on this post. I'm kidding, really. I'd love for you to comment. It will give me a great excuse to actually start making stuff again.
So here it is...
The first five people to respond to this post will get something made by me.
My choice.
For you.
This offer does have some restrictions and limitations:
1- I make no guarantees that you will like what I make.
2- What I create will be just for you.
3- It'll be done this year.
4- You have no clue what it's going to be. It may be a story. It may be photography or an article on properly cleaning your face before a masque. I may sew or paint something. I may bake you something and mail it to you. Who knows? Not you, that's for sure!
5- I reserve the right to do something extremely strange.
The catch? Oh, the catch is that you must re-post this on your own blog and offer the same deal to 5 of your own lucky blog readers. So, the first 5 people to leave a comment telling me they are in win a FAB-U-LOUS homemade gift by me! Oh, and be sure to post a picture of what you win when you get it.
The end.

Wow- what a fun idea!
Can I win even though I am not a regular reader of your blog? I would consider it a stroke of luck because I am stuck in my house with a broken garage (can't get my car out) and maybe all of my time wasting will pay off!! yipee!
It may be something completely strange? That sounds FANTASTIC!!! O.K. I'm doing a crafty prize then too.
Yay! I'm in. SOOO in. You can send my homemade quilt with HOlly when she comes to visit in a few weeks.
I'm sneaking in under the wire here. So much fun! I'm in!
Dang it...I lost, but now I won't have to pretend I'm creative. I guess it's a blessing in disguise.
Anne, you let me down. I had predicted you, Sarah (correct, she was first), Emily T (fail), Courtney (fail), and JohnORAshley (fail).
That's batting .200.
Paul- Sorry to let you down...I have been a horrible blogger lately! I do enjoy that I was part of the bet though!
dude, I would have, but I was holding out until holly facebook friend requested me. Plus I'm not very crafty.
okay so i will be honest. i typed a response. i almost hit enter. and then i panicked about my inability to be crafty in my post pardum haze.
clearly i am missing out and for that i will curse the heavens.
we are still on track for dinner one day maybe?? spring 2010... or for the next jacobsen child. he he.
OK, so we have 6 winners(since Paul hadn't published a couple of the winning comments and Amy thought she was still getting in "under the wire")! Good thing I love you, Amy.
Get excited for your prizes... whatever they may be, and whenever they may materialize.
Let the crafting begin.
