52 Weeks of Color Challenge: Dark Raspberry

When I was little I remember going to visit my great-aunt Margaret. She had a great big cherry orchard and raspberry patch that we would visit at picking time. I definitely remember doing a lot more eating than picking, though! Fortunately I have a lot of brothers and sisters and we managed to get all the picking done. And then it was time for making jam and putting up all that fruit.

But wait! What about my winners from last week!??! Congrats to the following:

Akayo Firecaster

Inkie Loudwater

Rudhmellowen  Laguna

Visit the Marketplace Store for Argrace and let me know which hairstyle and color you would like.

Back to raspberry! Sometimes, you just can’t shove the food in your mouth fast enough. But alas, I try.

I fell in love with this messy braid from Alli&Ali this week, and so I am just going to have to do hair again for my giveaway! Leave your comment on this post before Friday, Feb. 24th to be entered into the drawing. Next week I will send the color and style of choice to three randomly-chosen commenters!

  14. Definitely what Laila said! And I love the story line, you sitting on the kitchen table (not on a chair, mind you!) snacking away on a bowl full of berries. You look so pretty, especially the way your skin picks up something in the blouse:)
