Holiday Wreath Giveaway…and a Challenge (Winners Announced)

Thanks to random.org, we’ve chosen 3 winners–Bonnie, Pat, and Nancy–all who’ve been notified and are just a few days away from receiving a beautiful holiday wreath.

My Dad just turned 86 this past Sunday. He and Mom live in a quiet friendly neighborhood on Deer Point Lake in Panama City, FL, nearly 1300 miles from me. MapQuest says it’s a 20 plus hour drive.

Mom and Dad have had their share of health issues these last couple of years and aren’t as active in the kitchen as they used to be. That’s why I’m grateful they have nice neighbors. At least two or three times a week, Sharon and Norm from down the street bring supper. Mom has dubbed them her “Meals on Wheels.”

If my parents didn’t have friends who brought them regular meals, they’d for sure be needing a little help from Meals on Wheels Association of America (MOWAA) the oldest and largest national organization whose mission is to eliminate hunger among seniors. Lindsay Olives believes in MOWAA too and are donating proceeds from their Handmade Olive Branch Holiday Wreaths to this worthy organization.

Lindsay Olives has also given us three holiday wreaths to give away this season. Made from olive, bay, and eucalyptus branches, they can be hung on an interior or exterior door or used as a table decoration as seen above. To enter this contest, simply complete the following statement: this holiday season I will do my part for people in need by…

Posting deadline is this Friday, December 3rd at 6:00 PM Eastern Time. Winners will be announced by 9:00 AM Eastern Time on Monday, December 6^th.
