And the Give-Away Winner Is~~~




This give-away thing has been a lot fun!! I've met bloggers who've never left a comment before and that was very special. I really enjoyed reading everyone's comments...and learning their coffee likes and dislikes!

AKPonyGirl gets the story teller award for the best story! Wouldn't we all liked to have met her grandpa?!?

LatigoLiz gets a high five for the most adventurous...I now know what a Faceplant is!

Sydney gets the most desperate award...I've never tried to get my truck and trailer through a drive through...you go girl!

Jocelyn is a cowgirl after my own heart...Pendleton Coffee...black and strong...YES!

Some like it sweet...some liked it REALLY sweet...and others had to have the white stuff in it...of many varied flavors!

Lots of stuff added for specific tastes...cinnamon, alcohol...oh boy...lots of alcohol flavors...yum! Ice cream? That was a new one to me, but I'm going to have to try that one!

Mugwump had the strangest additive. Salt to cut the bitterness...that's a new one to me too. But, I'm not too sure if I'm going to try that one ;~) No offense mugs...I promise to make your coffee just right when you get out here for the wild horse inventory!

Of course coffee mugs are not only for coffee. We've got hot chocolate, Diet Pepsi, hot apple cider, egg nog, Dr. Pepper, tea...lots of tea...how 'bout a Margarita with Laughing Orca Ranch Lisa? I could do that girlfriend!

Well, after all that fun stuff, we come down to the draw...





Everyone who told me their favorite
drink got their name on the paper...








The names were cut and folded over once...







and placed into the big basket.






I held the basket as My Man assisted me...






...and he drew the winning name...





Andrea at Mustang Saga!!!!

And the crowd goes wild!!!!

WhooooHoooo!!!

Congratulations Andrea!!!


Send me an email with your snail mail address and I'll get your package of goodies off to you next week! My email is at the top left on the blog.

Thank you everyone who participated. You made this a really fun give-away!

Don't forget to turn your clocks back an hour tonight...ahhhh...an extra hour of sleep. I can do that!

Happy Trails everyone~~
