1) Winners of the Land’s End and Cleaning Products are announced over on the Review blog! Is it you?

2) Snapfish is having an awesome deal today if you’re looking for cheap Christmas presents. 50% off collages! I ordered 3…but I shall not say for who since they all read this blog. hehe.  The site is having a new deal each day so sign up for the notifications if you haven’t already.  (I know, I just dissed Snapfish, but this redeems them in my book. Cause the code actually worked for once and it’s a great deal!)

3) My complaining to Blurb (again) paid off!  They still maintain that their promotion isn’t misleading (what?) but they created me my own code to take $10 off my order no matter what I spent. Which basically only paid for their ridiculously high shipping price of $10 (for a softcover book?!). I won’t ever use them again, not just because of my experience but I didn’t like their design program. It was very limiting design and layout wise.

4) It’s getting that time of the year, folks. School is attempting to make me go insane with all the projects, papers, speeches, and exams that are all due in the 2 weeks. So, I probably will be lacking in real blogging content and very sporadic until it’s all over.  Unfortunetly all my writing will be focused on Brit Lit right now. Ick.  Don’t miss me too much.

Just a reminder, two giveaways end tonight!  Today is your last chance to enter for some awesome prizes from Weiman/Libman and Land’s End.

What’s your favorite smell? Is it the smell of your mother’s perfume that takes you back to when you were growing up?  Is it the smell of laundry?  Flowers? Your child’s hair after bath time?

What about your favorite food smell?  How often can the sense of smell take us back in our memory and crave not just food, but to be in that moment again.  Tomorrow is Thanksgiving and already I’m anticipating the smell of Turkey baking, stuffing, and that sweat pumpkin pie along with the good company of my family.  It’s part of what makes Thanksgiving…well..Thanksgiving to me. Pillsbury has a new commercial out that portrays just that, that “Home is Calling” where good food and family are waiting.

But Pillsbury is doing more than just advertising for their (awesome tasting) products, but also giving back to those who need it.  Visit this page, watch the short video, and pass it on in honor of your own smell memories and to give that chance to others.  Every time you forward the commercial to others by December 31st, Pillsbury will donate 1 pound of food to a food bank within the USA. It’s that easy help out! They will donate at least $5,000 worth and up to $25,000. That’s a lot of food, people!  Start sending away.

And, to celebrate the holidays even more, I’m giving away THREE Pillsbury gift baskets as a thank you for passing on the love and food. The basket includes:

1. Coupon for FREE Pillsbury crescent rolls

2. Cookie sheet (It’s NICE one folks, Oneida!)

3. Pot holder

4. Bread basket (for those yummy crescent rolls…)

5. Magnetic coupon holder

6. Mouse pad

7. Lovable Pillsbury Doughboy figurine (Which, Savannah is sleeping with ours as I type)

Leave a comment on this post telling me to how many people you forwarded the video to and what’s your favorite holiday food. Comments will close Thursday, December 4th at midnight.  Then, three winners will be chosen randomly and announced on Friday, December 5th.  Thanks for passing the food and good luck!
