Friday Flavour: A blog facelift, a dot com, and a Williams-Sonoma Giveaway! {Giveaway Closed}

Happy Friday, friends! 

Happy February 6, 2015. A day that will never come around again, so make the most of it.

Here's a riddle for you: What has no thumbs, turned four a couple weeks ago, and very recently (like yesterday) got a much needed facelift? 

This blog. 

What still has no thumbs and finally got a DOT COM - as in www.thebrunettebaker.com, thankyouverymuch? 

THIS BLOG. 

Guess who's celebrating her birthday the entire month of February by sharing sweet eats and giving away delicious treats because I love you all?! 

THIS BL-, I mean, THIS GIRL. That would be me, ladies and probably no gentleman. Me.

Finally, what is helping me give away all these super fun goodies?! 

THIS BLOG. AND A WHOLE LOT OF INCREDIBLE PEOPLE.

And yes, I'll stop shouting now.

IT'S BIRTHDAY MONTH, FRIENDS! BRING ON THE EXPLODING CONFETTI! I know I say that every year, but I don't really mean it. Have you tried to clean that shit up? It's not fun. BUT SERIOUSLY, BRING ON THE EXPLODING CONFETTI! Okay, I'll really stop with the shouting. I promise.

All month long, I'll be giving away some delightful treats, so I hope you'll check back with me and celebrate as you do. 

First up? A sweet haul (see photo above) from one of my favourite stores, Williams-Sonoma. 

Three gorgeous melamine mixing bowls, a silicone spatula with wooden handle, and a lovely tea towel. This prize is valued at $75 - in Canadian dollars, folks. It's probably much less in the US. Welcome to my world. 

Wanna win it? Follow the Rafflecopter prompts and enter for your chance to do so.

  23. Congrats on getting a dot com! Yay! If I could go anywhere in the world, I would like to go to Japan and learn Japanese there. It looks like a fantastic country to visit but I know it's quite expensive and I'm vegetarian, so I might need a translator to come with me as I explore tiny villages and towns! @savvari on Twitter
