We finally reached 300 posts! So as I announced two weeks ago we are having a giveaway to celebrate! And here is what we are giving away:
This fabulous package of gifts was chosen with love to represent the best of Making Me Cranky goodness.
First of all we have my very favorite panties from Victoria’s Secret:
You may remember them from a past Fabulous Friday. I have them in a whole bunch of colors and patterns. They are super soft and comfy and they will come to you in a size medium, which I wear, but with a gift receipt to exchange them for another size if you aren’t as generous in the caboose as I am, or if you’d prefer a different color or pattern. If you are a gentleman winning our giveaway, these will make the perfect gift for that special lady friend in your life, or if you are without a special lady friend you can keep them under your pillow and dream about a day when you will have a special lady in your life. Hahaha! Oh god, I’m funny. Moving on…
Next, for the guys, a lovely pair of argyle socks:
Those in Josh’s inner circle, and the people that work in his office, know that he regularly wears argyle socks. And by regularly, I mean, pretty much every day. I’m planning a Fabulous Friday post about them. He has like 30 pairs. Again, ladies, these will make a great gift for the gentlemen in your life. And if you don’t have one, you can reference my instructions for single guys above.
Next up, a nice big red mug for your morning coffee, filled with some Irish Cream Hershey’s Kisses, you know, to Irish up your coffee:
You might remember my attempt to go coffee-free about six months ago. Well, I’m back on the coffee wagon (or is it off the wagon), in a big way and think you all should be too. I can’t live without my morning and afternoon cups, but I’m trying to limit myself to just those two cups a day. Now you can enjoy your morning cups in this beautiful red mug lovingly selected by me with just you readers in mind. I’m terribly thoughtful.
Now, I also plan to include some Newhall Coffee, my favorite from a local independent coffee roasting company, if I can get my hands on some! They were out at the store we usually shop at, so I’m going to try to get some later this week. We’ll see. I’m not making any promises.
And last, but certainly not least, straight from our latest Fabulous Friday, David Sedaris’ Holidays On Ice!
And it’s the super new hardcover edition with six new stories! This is way better than the one we have. I am super jealous. You may just be receiving a pre-read copy. Because, you know, I have to make sure it’s appropriate for my readers, who I love so much.
So, to win all of these fabulous prizes, here are the rules once again:
You get an entry for commenting on the previous post announcing this giveaway, answering the question: What is your favorite thing about the holiday season?. You can get a second entry by emailing me at maggie@makingmecranky.com with a suggestion for a Fabulous Friday post. And you can get a third entry with a comment on this post telling us what you love about Making Me Cranky. I am very clearly fishing for compliments and I have given you plenty of time to think of one, so they better be good! And I know you people are all going to say that it’s getting to bask in the adorableness that is Eleanor.
Oh and I’ve added one little restriction. I’ll only ship to the lower 48s. Apologies to our international readers, but I really can’t afford the postage. So if you don’t live in the lower 48, please don’t enter.
Okay kids, you have until Midnight New Year’s Eve (PST) to enter! The winner will be chosen, probably at random, by Brian at our New Year’s Eve get-together. The winner will be announced shortly thereafter, depending on when I’m sober enough to type.
Oh and don’t forget there will be a second prize for the 500th commenter but we’re not getting super close, so you might have to wait a while for that one. I’ll post again to remind you about it and announce what the prize will be when we’re getting closer to reaching it.
Good luck everyone!

my favorite thing about Making Me Cranky is Eleanor … . I can’t wait til that girl is old enough to type her own posts!
Hmmm… I think my favorite thing about the holidays is the music. I love that almost everyone knows the songs & can sing along & have a great time. I also love that my older child knows ALL the words & randomly breaks out in song.
My third favorite thing about Making Me Cranky was the Brian post! You seem amazing! [hint hint Mr. I will "randomly" choose a winner]
I also love MMC because Eleanor is simply the cutest thing on two feet. Finally, the photographs on this site are so beautifully executed, that you, Maggie, inspired me to pick up a new hobby!! That’s right, I got a sweet camera for Christmas and have been shooting everything in sight ever since; I try to immitate the way you angle your camera and zoom on beautiful details that otherwise would not be noticed. Thanks friend!
Milk Baby loves one thing, and one thing only about Making Me Cranky: references to the Milk Baby!
I, too, love all of Maggie’s photos on Making Me Cranky. I love keeping up with Eleanor and wish we lived closer so the girls could hang out since they are the same age- almost to the day. I also look forward to the house/decorating tours.
