Rules are rules, and there’s no rule here at Midwest Storyteller against winning the First Friday Freebie again! It just goes to show you that it pays to keep on trying. She won back in November and she’s done it again. June’s freebie winner is –
Ginger of Prairie Home, Missouri!
(Now, you may be wondering how she managed to do that twice. I can only think of one way to lower the odds of such a thing happening and that is if you subscribe, enter to win and SHARE with everyone so your friends and family can enter, too!)
Ginger commented on the post, saying, “I’m all stirred up!” She needed to do just that in order to place her name into the drawing for this six-piece bamboo utensil set with wood burning designs done by Kathy and me. Then, as usual, I offered up the names to Smuffy so he could choose one at random. He must have been a little bored or perhaps this is something his scientific brain has been working on for a while, because he introduced a motif of name flagging, counting off remaining names according to a pre-determined number and then stopping on a new name. (Huh?) Since it seemed even more random than just picking one, I let him have his way. I need to do that once in a while, you know. Variety, as they say, is the spice of life.
The utensils will look great on Ginger’s kitchen counter. Take a look at the photo she sent me showing them displayed in an antique pitcher that belonged to her grandmother.

Congratulations, Ginger! I know Grandma is looking down, pleased to see you’re keeping your memories of her alive.

First Friday Freebies are available to SUBSCRIBERS ONLY.

If you are on a phone or tablet, the easiest way is to go to the “About Me” page. All it means to be a subscriber is that you’ll receive an email each time Midwest Storyteller has something new, which won’t likely be more than once or twice a week. It keeps you from missing out on all the fun and FREE STUFF! And, I’m not sharing your emails with anybody.
