Happy Holidays! And an Oh!Nuts Giveaway for You!

In just a couple hours it will officially be December 1st: my mother’s birthday, and the official day you can start saying “Happy Holidays” without anyone complaining that you’re rushing it. Let’s face it – if they’re not ready yet, it’s not your problem! (ps – let’s save the Merry Christmas / Happy Hanukkah / Happy Holidays debate for another time, k?)

In the spirit of the season, Oh! Nuts is offering one of my lucky readers – that could be you – a generous holiday gift.

I happen to like this company quite a bit. Remember when they generously shared some macadamia nuts, dried guava and sesame coated almonds with me? I do. Good stuff. And I can’t ignore the fact they have tons of Hanukkah products – perhaps even more than Christmas products. Hello, Jew crew. How often do you see that?

But we’re not leaving anyone out, this giveaway is open to all who love nuts, chocolate, fruit, giving and receiving gifts, and any combination of the above.

You know the drill: leave separate comments for multiple entries. For this giveaway, you can leave up to three. The contest will close on Tuesday, December 7th at midnight, and I’ll pick a random winner the next day (conveniently just before I leave for Key West for a couple glorious days!) The lucky reader will receive a $25 gift certificate to Oh! Nuts – perfect for a gift giving, or to treat yourself!

Entry #1

Go to the Oh Nuts Christmas gift baskets page. Choose your favorite Christmas Gift that you’d like to give or receive, and leave a comment on this post with the name of the gift you like the most and a link to it.
