I am so sorry for the delay. I wish one of you would have reminded me that I dropped the ball. I absolutely get irked when people say they will announce a recipient on a particular day and then the day comes and goes without a mention. So I am truly, deeply sorry for messing up.
According to the random integer generator, the recipient was commenter #9. Which is: Lisa S. (the one who has an anniversary on the 23rd)
Lisa, if you see this before I email you, feel free to email me, otherwise I will make sure to email you ASAP.
thank you to everyone for your kind comments. I hope you will join us in the festival, it is sure to be a lot lot lot of fun.
Yippee! It’s me! Thanks Karen. I’ll e-mail you!
