I’ve been waiting for this day for about two months ever since my brother told me it wasn’t ‘that complicated’ to switch to self hosted WordPress, and that the domain I wanted was available!!!
First of all this is still “under construction” but I was just to excited I had to get it out here so I decided to go ahead anyway…so yeah there will be a few tweaks here and there but the majority of it is done.
So here it is Life, Love, Green. I think the title says it all. Those three things are what this blog is all about. So to start this off with a bang how about my very first giveaway!?!? Sound good? I think so.
This giveaway is for a set of items I’m really excited about they are all things I own and most of them will help the ‘greenie’ in all of us.
1. A Life, Love, Green shopping bag
2. A set of 3 lip balms, one bar of soap, and a sample shampoo from Apple Valley Naturals Soap
The soap is an Chamomile and Orange blossom bar which is great for dry sensitive skin, and the lip balms include her Minnesota Winter lip balm which a friend of mine just started using and she says its “better than Bert’s bees (and it’s cheaper)!”
3. Your choice of either 1 8×10 or 2 5×7 of the images below. These photos are taken by Becky from the iheart blog
This is actually my SIL’s photography and she will be setting up a Etsy shop later this summer (I’ll let you know when.)
4. A set of Love for Earth’s Purple Produce bags
5. A single posy pin from The Pleated Poppy.
So there you have it, how do you get them? Easy…you win the drawing…lol.
Here is how to get entries for the drawing post a separate comment for each one you do (up to 4 entries:)
1. Go to one of these 3 shops and tell me what you would most like to get : Love for Earth, Apple Valley Natural Soaps, or The Pleated Poppy
2. Tell me which of the photos is your favorite.
3. Post this giveaway on either your blog, twitter, or Facebook and let me know where to find it.
4. Let me know something you would like me to post about.
I don’t want to force anyone to follow me so that is it short and sweet. Oh and don’t forget to include your e-mail so I can get a hold of you if you win this is required.
The giveaway ends Thursday 5-20-10 at midnight CST. The winner will be announced on Friday.

Congratulations on the move! It’s worth the time and the trouble to own your own domain, isn’t it? I’m not going to participate in the drawing since I’m overseas and I don’t like having people pay postage to send me things
Again, congratulations!
