Watch Out November!

October 22, 2010 by Joy the Baker 136 Comments

No-Bake Peanut Butter Tart

I’m terrible with surprises.  All that dang waiting… it just seems so silly.

I have a surprise for all y’all.

This November… just some days from this day today… there’s going to be a giveaway everyday of the month here at J the B.

Everyday!  Something lovely for you to win!

Tell your friends.  Call your Mom.  Write your Congressman.  I’m going to wait in line at the post office.  It’s going to be fun.

I just thought I’d let you know… in case you were thinking of blog breaking up with me between now and next month.

    Love. Pure and unadulterated. <3
    How you think I could ever handle a blog break-up with you is beyond my understanding.

    Hey, I love surprises! I can’t believe that you don’t like them. Maybe you haven’t had a good surprise yet.
    I hope someone close to you reads your blog and gets inspired to give you a HUGE surprise, and you end up loving it. Then for the rest of your life you will surely love surprises, just as much as I do.

    Hmm. Now I feel a little dirty, like I’m a blog gold-digger. You know we can make this relationship beneficial for *both* of us, right? ;)

My Top 10 Peanut Butter Recipes

I haven’t felt like making meals at all this week.  I don’t even seem to have the energy to cobble together my usual lazy stand-bys: scrambled eggs and a carb, toasted.  Strangely, I’m also not allowing myself to order any expensive (and everything is expensive right now) takeout so… well, I’ll be eating bananas smeared…
