Now We're Cookin'!!! (& 4 Month Adoptiversary Giveaway)

So after a 4-5 month lull of absoulutely no referrals, this past week we got THREE!  So now we are #46 and so excited to see some movement.  We just need to keep those referrals cookin' so to speak (Insert Prayer Request Here). 
So for our 4 Month Waiting Anniversary we are doing a giveaway thanks to a dear supportive friend.  (Thank You Lisa Girdner)  Honestly, I wanted to keep these things myself, but alas, I will give them up to one of my blog followers.  :) 

So what we are giving away:

1.  Mini Loaf Pan (Stoneware) from Pampered Chef

2. One Rectangular Baker (13x9 Stoneware) from Pampered Chef

How do you enter you ask?  :)  Up to three entries:
1.  Become a follower of my blog and leave a comment below saying that you did so.
2.  Share my blog on facebook or twitter and leave a comment saying that you did so.
3.  Leave a comment about what's been cookin' in your life these days.  :)

Leave a separate comment for each entry.  Giveaway ends 11/11/11.  I will draw a random winner at 11:11 PM (because that just seems pretty perfect).

    And what's been cookin' in my life lately?
    Let's see, it was below freezing today with high winds so we're just trying to keep the house warm. We cooked up chicken noodle soup and sourdough bread for dinner, yummy!
    But the big news in my life is of course the referrals, I'm #21, woo hoo!

    what's cookin' in my life? Lots of Pumpkin muffins and crock pot meals. However, I'd love to make some mini loafs of bread in that stoneware! The few pieces of stoneware I have, I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE!

    Well, I cooked some potato soup and cheddar garlic biscuits tonight. But, in my life, we're doing about the same thing as you... waiting for our baby boy. We're hoping for a referral by Christmas.

    I check your blog, does that make me a follower? I didn't see if there was an "official" way to follow you : ) I guess I could get in my car and tailgate you--not sure if that would work ; )

    What's been cooking in my life? Well, actually, I just did "Once a Month Cooking" this past weekend, and I have over 20 meals in my freezer to prove it! It was hard work, but I love having all of that food ready to throw in a crock pot or heat up! Other than that, life is pretty normal/crazy. Kids, MOPS, lifegroup, church, groceries, etc.
