Thanks for visiting! If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed using the feedburner link to the right.
Drum roll please. It’s time for another of the quarterly carnival of giveaways!
I’m guessing that you are passing through as quick as possible because there is hundreds of blogs to visit from the giveaway list.
I’ll try to be short. Technically I’m always short - 5 ft. 1 1/2 in.
My name is Jendi. This is my blog about everyday life with my three children (5.5, 4, 2 yo) plus my husband, a cat, and a rabbit. I put my foot down against a dog until all the kids are out of diapers, but my family is counting the days.
Every week I post a Wordless Wednesday and a Sunday Poem. The other 5 days I wing it. I did a vlog entry last Friday and hope to have more of them in the future.
Finally - the good stuff. I’m giving away one of my Jendi Jean Bags.
Here are the five choices:
You should be able to click the picture for more info.
Leave a comment for your first entry. Please answer this question in your comment:
What is your favorite type of blog to read? Do you like cooking blogs, thrifty blogs, mommy blogs, devotional blogs, book blogs…?
For a second entry subscribe to my blog through email or RSS (top of far right sidebar) and leave a second comment telling me that you did. If you already subscribe just leave me a second comment and let me know. My loyal readers deserve two entries.
This giveaway starts Monday October 27, 2008 and ends Friday October 31, 2008 at 5 pm EST.
You don’t have to be a blogger to win. Just leave your email address. Due to my limited funds I can only mail this to North America addresses.
Happy blog hopping!
At Garden Vines I’m giving away a gardening apron. Check it out!

I like reading ’slice of life” blogs. I like knowing what people are thinking, what they find interesting, their daily life, their kids. I like seeing what’s going on out there in other peoples worlds and knowing not just one thing about them, but getting to know them as people.

I like the first, the Paris Jean style. I read a mixture… I like a dose of humor with a splash of reality. I am not particularly religious so I steer clear of those blogs, veering more towards personal stories. I am not a mommy but read several mommy blogs, as well as family blogs of course.

on Oct 28th, 2008 at 7:04 pm
I like the slice of life blogs, but most of the blogs I follow, including yours, seem to be about adoption, specifically International (China) adoption.
I would love to find the links to the thrift blogs…. I have been a garage sale/thrift store shopper LONG before it was common and “approved of” by the general public!!!
edited later - oops, I meant to say that most of the blogs I follow deal with PARENTING, and most of them are about adoption. The previous comment was poorly worded, Sorry!

I don’t have one kind of blog I like; I like a smattering of many. I enjoy mommy, thrifty, celebrity, reviews, cooking, and especially scrapbooking!

I love mommy blogs…ones that make me feel better about not being Mrs. Cleaver.
Oh yes, wanted to say that I adore those jean bags. Drooling over them…
on Oct 29th, 2008 at 8:50 am
Hmm. I don’t know that I really have a favorite type of blog, because I have such a wide range on interests. I daily read the blogs of my family members, I check in regularly on card makers, nutritionists, and conservative local politics. I like to read about green living and health, and the occasional cooking blog–if it is gluten free. No mommy blogs for me, though. I’m past that stage and loving the empty nest!
Thanks for the giveaway. They are so cute!

I like the butterfly bag front. I have a pair of my daughter’s jeans waiting for me to attempt making a purse from them. Who knows what lifetime that will happen in.
If I was looking at blogs regularly, I would think I would be interested in cooking blogs since I love to cook and it is a necessary evil.
Since I’m not a blogger yet, I’m trying to send traffic to the articles I’ve written on eHow. The link below will send you to one of my articles. After you read it, you can view my other articles by clicking in the upper right hand box.
