Winner! Winner!

 

No! No! I do not want a chicken dinner. Well? Maybe one from Popeye’s!

I am so happy. This is the email I received this evening from Alison over at one of my favorite blogs, The Polohouse.

Alison's gorgeous home has been featured in Midwest Living adorned in its Christmas glory.

Of course, we do get the mag Midwest Living here in New Orleans, so I quickly registered for her giveaway, one of ten copies. My number, #10 was randomly selected.

Alison has one of the best styles I’ve seen. Alison’s stylish home is very Ralph Laurenesque (Is that a word?) filled with equestrian-style touches.

You may have remembered that I featured Alison’s decorating for a Kentucky Derby soiree back in May 2012. It was one of my most popular annual posts.

Secondly, if you have not seen Nana Diana’s post yesterday about her win of my House Proud give away, you need to get there fast. She nailed it!!! Two of my favorite bloggers in the same day…wow!!!
