I am so pitifully behind on blogging, I don't know what's up with anyone. On the other hand, I'm designing like a mad woman. :-)
I already have that CD (surprised, aren't you?), but not the book.
It's amazing how fast these contests take off. I just posted one for Love-Me-Knots, too, on the blog. It took 2 whole minutes to start receiving comments!
Now that is a great Southern prize from a Southern lady. I'd love to win!
Oh my goodness, would I love to win these. Please add my name!
I am from Arkansas.....YAY South! :-)
I'm in!
Many thanks!
Be sure to enter mine for "Simple Abundance"!
Now ya'll....I want to win. I'm a true southern peach orginally from Columbus, Georgia. I love Paula and I loved Charles. I sure hope to win.
Hugs!

Hey Melanie...of course I want to enter!
I am a southern wanna-be, so these are great. (Now I have that song, Georgia, playing in my head...)
Here I am. :)
Found you in Shannon's comments, thanks for sharing these lovelies - very generous of you!
I could really stand to have at least one Paula Deen cookbook in my collection...not sure that anything she has will work on my new diet but enter me anyway!
thanks!!
Count me in!
First of all, I love the title of the previous post and of course I've read the posts you linked to because I follow both of those great southern laides. :-)
Second, oh.my.word. I would love to have either of these giveaways. Both are wonderful.
So please count me in. So cool that both of these great people are from Albany. And I see my sister Bev (Scratchin the Surface) entered. If I win, I promise to share with her. LOL
Please enter me into your contest!
Thankyou!

Awesome prize...please enter me.
Thanks!
Both of those sound really good.
Wow, very cool!! My Mom would LOVE the Paula Deen book!
I've been lurking on your blog for a few months now, so I guess this is probably very rude of me to post my first comment...only when there is a chance that I may win something in return! My momma raised me with better manners than this, honestly.
So, I guess this is a comment to enter myself into your wonderful little contest. (Oh, how I would love me some Paula Deen fixins'!) It's also to let you know that I enjoy reading your posts and they often leave me chuckling or getting misty eyed.
Happy Friday to you!
Nicki
Oh please squeeze me into your giveaway! I missed yours somehow, and being a Georgia girl, I really NEED this! ;o) Thank you!

Perfect, thank you.

Pleae enter me into the drawing. Southern here and proud of it!
