    It’s Our Birthday and We’re Throwing a Party

    by Heather on February 25, 2008

    Heather says:

    We are turning one on Saturday! It’s hard to believe a year ago the Internet had not heard of the wonder that is Home Ec 101. In this time, we have shared ways to rid your life of every bodily fluid you have dared mention, shared well over one hundred recipes, doled out tons of advice on cleaning and motivation, and added over fifty frugal and homemaking bloggers to our aggregator. In honor of this auspicious occasion we’re holding a contest.

    You ask, “How do I enter?”

    Simply comment below. If you have a blog please write a post to spread the news. If you do not have a blog, how retro is that, share the news via email or just shout it from the rooftops.

    Here is the list of prizes:

    • A can of Bar Keeper’s Friend
    • 5 Martha Who? t-shirts
    • A $50 Gift Card to Home Depot
    • A Hamilton Beach 3-in-1 Slow Cooker*

    The contest begins today and runs through 12am EST on Saturday. The drawings will be held through random selection and announced on Saturday. When commenting be sure to use a valid email address to ensure we are able to contact the winners.

    Get ready, get set, comment!

    *Only US and Canadian residents are eligible for the slow cooker, overseas shipping is not in the budget.

    I found this site about a month ago and I’m loving it and it’s become one of my morning reading sites.

    Would love to be entered in your giveaway…I do agree however with The Chatty Housewife saying “It seems we should all be giving you a gift, and here you are offering to give one of us one!”

    I’ve shouted it far and wide to the point of annoyance. I think if my typing did have a voice, I could put Fran Drescher to shame.
