PrintOctober was one of the busiest month’s I’ve ever had, mostly on the blogosphere and I have to say it was a lot of fun. I think I enjoyed most hearing all your comments with the giveaways. To me that’s the best part of a giveaway, is meeting new friends and getting to know those I’ve connected with on a deeper level. So, first let me announce the winner of my last giveaway…It’s Rain from:
I just met Rain and being that I cannot make a stitch of clothing, so I’m looking forward to buying some of her beautiful work and getting to know her better. Congrats. Rain! I’ll contact you but if you read this post first, please leave your mailing info. on my contact form.
I’ll be having two giveaways this month so I hope you all stick around and enter those.
Second part of this post was that I was given a blog award from Loopy over at her blog “Wandering Along Loopy’s Life Path.” One of the reasons I love blogging is that I get to meet people I normally would never come across and Loopy cracks me up because she has a great sense of humour and is just a generally nice person. So, I accept this award with all the pomp and circumstance! It’s a really funny award and I’ve never heard about it, so it’s perfect coming from Loopy. Thank you, Loopy: ) Here’s the award:
I started laughing when I saw this one.
Now, part of accepting this award is to pass it to ten other blogs I enjoy. This the only part I hesitate to accept this award because there’s so many blogs I really like. But I would like for all of my readers to visit their blogs and see why I like them so much. So thank you Loopy, a great big cluck back to you; ) The ten blogs I choose are:
1) Lyn from (By the way, a lot of you have told me you loved the new look of my blog, Lyn’s the one who created it!)
2) Aine from:
3) Aelwyn from:
4) Birgit from
5) Willow from:
6) Aisha from:
7) Debra from:
8) Jolean from:
9) Susan from:
10) And last but definitely not least, Faerie Sage from:
Faerie Sage has started to take up the blog challenge of “The 30 Posts of Truth, which is a great way to start the New Year. You can see all the thirty posts to blog about on that site. I was really moved by Faerie Sage’s first blog post which you can find here and I too am going to attempt to do this. The first day is writing about something you hate about yourself, which will be very easy for me to do. I hope you join in with us. Should be interesting!

Jolean recently posted..What a Samhain!
You’re most welcome my one of a witchy kind friend : ) Glad you like the tag, the name of the tag is “The Wild One” seriously that’s the name of the image so I thought it perfect for you ; )
Oh wow! Thank you Wendy for the award and the kind words about the design. It was a pleasure
I love the little tag too – I bought a mask on Halloween so very appropriate.
What a great idea about the 30 things… might just have to give that a go! Can’t wait to read yours!!
Lyn recently posted..P is for Phooka
Ms. Lyn, fellow-goddess-in-crime ; ) I thought the image matched you and are you going to take photos of your mask on? There’s a few Yule parties coming up that are masquerades, so I’m expecting a photo or two. And I really, really am so happy with my gorgeous blog design. It feels authentically me and the black kitty of course represents the girls. So, are you going to join us for the “30 Posts”? Let’s do it!
Thanks so much, Wendy — I am cluckin’ honoured! Plus you created a lovely picture for my blog since I don’t have a blog button — thanks for that too!
Debra She Who Seeks recently posted..Its the Witches New Year!
Debra, I knew you would lay an egg over this award ; ) And you’re very welcome over the tag I made for you, I’m glad you like it, they’re fun to tag.. If you want a different blog button though, I can make a different one, this one’s kind of big. Now give “Her Royal Highness” a kiss for me.

Faerie Sage recently posted..The 30 Posts of Truth
You are so welcome lovely, Faerie Sage, I thought you’d be amused ; ) And I’m so glad my comments don’t drive you to drink, lol…I noticed the last one I wrote was a littttllllleeee long . I have a feeling a bunch of us are up for this truth or dare “30 Posts” blog, thank you for starting it off for me and looking forward to the rest of your posts.
Should indeed. I’m waiting.
Thanks for the award — I definitely feel honored!
While I haven’t made it on your list of your favorite bewitching blogs, I am happy that you nonetheless enjoy my blog. Hah! 
Moreover, I am happy to see that Rain won your prize. I had hoped she would win the goddess necklace which was recently given away during Mrs. B.’s 31 Days of Halloween (she desperately wanted it), but I am sure that she will now love your goodies! It’s always great to see that the universe brings something nice to a sweet person. (Just think of you and Theresa somehow swapping prizes lately!) So very cool.
Hugs to you, dear Wendy — I will be sure to mention the award on my blog soon.
– Birgit
You Germans are just so bossy, Birgit, lol…I know I needed a kick in my pants to update my blogroll and I still am not done, but LOOK, you’re there. I have to add about twenty more people. Sigh..I hate paperwork, what can I say ; ) And Birgit, even if you didn’t bring it to my rude attention, that you weren’t on my blogroll, you’re still one of my fave. people and have one of my fave. blogs. I really am glad though you did mention it as some of my bloggy friends might get hurt feelings if I don’t add them soon. So, clap yourself on the back, girl. Luv ya, Birgit : )
First CONGRATS Rain!! enjoy tour spoils
HOLY BLACK CATS BATMAN!! thank you so much for this award , which is ULTRA cool for me, as I love chickens and roosters…additionally we usually have chickens, but our last flock was killed off by a neighbor’s dog, we’re gonna get new chicks in the spring! ANYWAY>>>>Wendy 8) you so ROCK
, and thank you for thinking of me for a “Loopy” award (I am kind of loopy at times)
and I love that graphic! THANK YOU SO VERY,VERY MUCH! I have no programs to make anything nice for my blog…a friend made my banner picture, and installed it and all, as i do not know how to do it. I have been thinking a lot lately about FATE and MYSTICAL things and would so love a better banner, but….
what’s a girl to do? anyway, is there any way to make that into a button for my blog, and could you do that for me? I am probably asking too much, but I can’t help myself it is so lovely!
Thanks again and Hugs,
Susan (you can also call me Sue)
Susan G recently posted..NEW WINNER PICKED
No, Sue I’d be glad to make that tag into a blog button for you or I can make some others for you to see. And glad you like the award, you’re most welcome : )
How appropriate that this should be the post I drop in to leave this comment on, I’ve given you a few awards over on my blog if you’d like to drop by.
D.Suplicki recently posted..A plethora of lovely awards!

Hugs,
Susan
Susan G recently posted..NEW WINNER PICKED
Congrats on your award, Wendy! I may not be a witch, but I still enjoy your blog and I think you deserve it. Thanks for the tip on Lyn….if you could hook me up with her (if she’s willing) I’d love to see what she could come up with for me. Actually, yours would work, but I don’t think you’re going to give it up.
Ace, we’ll work on yours yet and find you the perfect look. You can always contact Lyn by clicking on the badge of hers I have on my sidebar. And yes, I think you’re a little witchy, you just haven’t come out of the broom closet yet, which is understandable. Thank you for the congrats. You’ll be getting a few awards I think when you’re up and running ; 0
