Hello Sweet Friends,
It's been a year since I began this blog. I really can't believe it! It seems like just yesterday that I began this little blog journey, and it's been more fun than I could have ever imagined. I remember how thrilled I was to have one follower! This week my 100th follower signed on! (Thanks, Deb!) It means so much to think that someone liked my lil' blog enough to click that "follow" button. For those of you who aren't "official" followers, but pop in from time to time-- I adore you too. I really, really do.
Oh, and those of you who leave me some love in the comments-- thank you soooo much! XOX! It's your feedback that keeps me going. I think you know what I mean... especially if you're a blogger too! I love and appreciate all your comments so much. It's amazing to think that whether I need advice on what camera to buy, what kind of vintage bowl I just bought, or how to grow a peony-- I can just put it out there and my sweet bloggy friends around the world are there to help me out. It really warms my heart.
Soooooo, you know what's coming... a GIVEAWAY!!! To thank you all for sharing this journey with me, I'm having a giveaway. In true Jill fashion, I haven't got the prizes gathered and completed yet, so it will be a mystery prize. (Oooooh!) I will give you hints though... the surprises will be either vintage, or vintage inspired-- or both! Oh, and here's another hint:
Okay, to enter this fabulous little giveaway, just leave a comment. You don't have to be an "official follower", however-- if you are an "official" follower please leave a second (separate) comment also. Hagrid and I will draw the name on Friday! (I'll try to take pictures of that!!)Hugs,
PS: I must admit, I can't take credit for creating that lovely dessert. It's a chocolate mousse tulip from the bakery of my favorite market, Nugget Markets. Yummmmm... I'll have a bite for you too!

Hi, I just found you. I love the peonies. I plant them all over my yard and like a squirrel forget about them. Then I am totally surprized and delighted when they magically bloom in the spring!

The time goes so quickly, doesn't it? Congrats on one year and 100 followers. I have to tell you that your blog is one of my favorites- I love to see Hagrid- I loved when you posted about gardening and I love your adventures in your new home- and of course love the dollhouse posts! So glad we met Jill- soon you'll be at 200 followers because your blog is just too sweet ♥
Time flies, doesn't it? It has been fun to watch your blog grow- and your houses (big and small,) become homes. Hugs to you and Hagrid, too!

Is it too late to join the fun? I'm very curious about what this giveaway will be, but I love what I see in the hint. I'll check back to see if I'm the lucky winner.
