    ..uh—I’d love to enter, but why is the date on the Surprise Giveaway text 5.16.07? Did I miss it or is Bloglines giving me old messages as new?

    And I TOTALLY am adoring that uber darling apron, GORGEOUS plates and lovely card set!

    Hi Amelia –

    You’re right! I used the header from Violet’s last giveaway in the design – oops! Thanks for calling this to my attention – I’ll fix it. The giveaway is definitely a new post :)

    I can’t help but adore the exotic patterns. There’s something about the modern textile look that just says “must have” – great finds!

    should we be getting a confirmation e.mail to know we are signed up for the newsletter???

  • 24 hiphostess

    no confirmation email at this point! I’m actually collecting the emails for her and giving her the list once the contest is done – so everyone will actually be added onto their mailing list next week. Thanks for checking in on that!

    How many times may we enter? I initially questioned the validity of my entry since I did not receive a confirmation email, so I went back and re-entered. Now I see from the previous comment that we will not receive a confirmation email until next week. But now I have entered twice….so either that will be noticed and one will be deleted OR more than one entry per person will be accepted. Hmmmmm. (Just trying to stay honest here!) :)

    Hi Anon -

    No worries – I always like to double-check things too :) There is just one entry per person – the database only counts each email once, so duplicate emails will only count as one entry. This keeps things fair for everyone. Hope that helps clear things up :)

    I’m about to move into a new place and I have NO tableware! Those dishes and trivets would be the perfect addition to my new condo (my first time on my own…!) I can’t wait to entertain, too, in my new place :) hopefully wearing a new, adorable apron!

    I just showed the apron to my finance and said I’d be more motivated to cook if I had this cute apron and he said Ill buy you any apron you want, within reason, if you will cook more =). So what do ya think does that mean he is going to buy it for me?

    Elysa –
    I’d tell him that at just $34 for such a fantastic apron that you will look so cute in, it’s probably a deal he shouldn’t pass up! ;)

  • 41 hiphostess

    the winner will be announced here – but we’re going to email them first because we don’t want to announce it by publishing their email online :) I’ll publish it as soon as I have a name!
