UPDATE: Congratulations to Martha Abilene, our randomly chosen winner!
Are you counting down to Christmas? I know I am!
Sitting by our cute little Christmas tree, enjoying the bowties I taped to our squirrel salt and pepper shakers, lighting our eggnog latte candle (and drinking real eggnog because I discovered I like it 😍), listening through Joshua’s copious amounts of Christmas music…
I have Christmas presents hidden in the closet that I am so totally going to wrap while he’s at work, mwahaha. 😎😎
To celebrate Christmas, you all, and this year with you, I’m hosting a giveaway!
Behold the pretties…
The prize includes…
- Paperback copy of Twinepathy by C.B. Cook
- Signed paperback copy of Sincerely, Jem by moi
- “Joy to the World” decorative crate
- A really big red mug (seriously, it’s huge)
- CHOCOLATE
- Embroidered holly keychain from “From Cass to You” (check our her IG reel to see it)
Open to the contiguous US only. Entries close Saturday, December 18 at 11pm MST. Winner will have 48 hours to respond to email before another winner is chosen.
I hope you enjoy, and have a merry, merry Christmas! ❤

Also my favorite Christmas beverage is a drink that my local coffee shop makes in the winter called the Charlie Brown Chai. I’m not entirely sure what makes it different from a normal chai latte, but it’s really good!
