Melissa, thanks for the laugh!
Cindi, not only did I not have to wake her up this time, but she got up and went to exercise class with me this morning right after I posted the Second Chance Challenge. But the second we got back home, she was out the door. I suspect it was a McDonald's breakfast for her today.
As soon as she came in, I started shaking the hat, making those little pieces of paper bounce around. Heidi still put her hand in there and stirred them up. She always does that, and I laughed about it. She drew a name and handed it to me. I unfolded it and immediately thought, "How do you do that!?" Can you guess whose name she drew first? And for the second winner, she drew . . .
OK. I know. You want to know who won the RAKs. Now don't get too excited because I haven't even bought them yet. Well, I did buy something for a present for a friend in case what I ordered for her didn't show up on time, but it did. So now I have a really cool gift that I was planning to keep. Do I want to part with it? Hmmm.
Oh, I still haven't mentioned the names that were drawn, have I?

Congratulations, Nora! You owe Heidi a piece of your great banana bread or one of your homemade chocolate chip cookies--any kind of pay-off will do. lol.
I suppose now you want to know whose name was drawn second.

Congratulations, Sarah! (Craft Nerd)
Sarah, if you've moved since the last time, please send me your address. Nora, I know where you live; I could find your place in my sleep!
Congratulations, Ladies, and thank you to everyone who participated. I love the way some of you played even if you didn't have a VersaMark pen and appreciated the tips that were posted.
