    Driving Sideways Winnah

    By Kristabella | June 3, 2008

    I have no idea why in the two contests I’ve held here, the winner posts both have WINNAH in the title. And if you think that I don’t say it like a booth worker at a carnival, you would be wrong.

    I loved, loved reading all your road trip stories! I myself am a huge fan of road trips. I really don’t mind driving anywhere. Which comes in helpful when you go to college in Arizona and drive back and forth every May and August, and also when you move from CA to Chicago and are too cheap unemployed to pay someone to drive it for you.

    Without further a-do, it is now time to reveal the winner of the Driving Sideways book contest!

    First, I put all the names in a bowl. Similar (read: exactly) to the last time.

    And then Bacon drew out a name.

    And the winner is Kristie! Congrats lady! Email me your mailing address and I’ll send it out you. I would say soon, but let’s face it, the last contest winners just got their Jen Lancaster books.

    For those of you who didn’t win, don’t forget to go out and buy your copy of Driving Sideways right now! And be sure to drop by and tell Jess that she is fabulous!

    Also, you will notice that Bacon looks like he’s been through the ringer in that photo above. Stay tuned for his stories about all his escapades in San Francisco. He’s very excited to have made it out in public and have some battle scars from his outing.

      Bacon and I are no longer on speaking terms. Twice he has refused me books! I guess I’ll just have to go buy a copy myself.

      Hmmph.

      I agree with Kristie. I think Bacon is in with the mob.

      I love that you said “Winnah!”

      If bacon ever wants a vacation, I’m happy to send you the tiny white hand I found in my backyard. You could use it to pluck names from a hat.

      Congrats to Kristie! This makes it one more book I’ll have to buy now. Hopefully the bookshelf can support the weight!

      Just wanted to stop by and say that I love your blog - you are way to funny!! I’m hoping you’re feeling better after the San Fran cab diaster!

      Since I missed this contest, I can’t wait for the next and your new blogs. Have a great day!

      Drats, foiled again!
      I need to know what bacon eats, so I can temp him some treats next time.
      (P.S. my husband used to own a potbelly pig so I know for a fact that pigs eat bacon. And beer. And Doritos.)

      I wonder how old bacon would look and feel deep in the stomach of a grizzly bear?
