Contest especially for you lurkers out there!

And something for the faithful readers, so you won’t pout!

One day last week, there were 1100 views of this blog.  I cannot imagine that out of 1100 people, only a handful were brave enough to try the last contest or even comment about how difficult it was!  But it’s the truth.

In an effort to pull my behind-the-scenes readers into the front rows, I am posting an easy breezy, and hopefully enjoyable contest.  Besides, Blair, our new rep. at Community Coffee (Scott was promoed up), is anxious to get rolling and give away something really nice.

For a chance to win this snazzy coffee canister . . .

    As long as my children can remember, we have gone Caroling every Christmas.

  • Coastal Restoration: Beating a Dead Horse?

    In the spring of 2010, my email box was inundated with writers looking for the softer side of the story of the Deepwater Horizon explosion and following oil spill disaster. These seekers of a different angle flocked to my bayou to interview my shrimping neighbors. As a wetland advocate, I wondered how I could use this man-made disaster as a platform to further the cause of education and awareness.

    It became clear to me early on that most of the journalists who arrived at my door really had no clue about our culture and way of life. So, if they wanted a story about how the oil spill had impacted us, then they must humor me and allow me to educate them about this vanishing ecosystem and its people.

  1. Yea, Scott. You know his promo came because all your readers started buying so much more Community Coffee!

    1. Hey Karin! I guarantee you when I post a pic of a Louisiana heron on here, I will DEFINITELY NOT call it a tri-color heron!! You can count on that, honey I’m pretty stubborn about that and people laugh at me because of it.
