Washcloth Winner (and an Announcement!)

After much deliberation, I would like to announce the Winner of the Rename Me Contest and the beautiful (if I do say so myself) washcloths!:

Susan!!!

 Susan is a dear friend of mine and an incredible artist. You can read about her creative life and see some of her work at www.susan-clark.com.

Her idea: The Ginger Jottings: Progressing to a healthful and homemade life

struck my fancy and will be my new name!

To go along with this, you will now find me here:


So that's my second announcement!

This Ginger is on the move!

Be sure to tune in over at www.gingerjottings.com to get an update on how my first week of the 16-Week Challenge went!!!

Horror. Glass. Jaime. Park. Comedy. Little Red. Jane. Kinky. Baby. Step-mother. Sky. Lucy. Christine. Elphaba.

What do these fabulous theatrical buzzwords have in common???

Well, they are going to keep me motivated and help me track my progress.

How you ask? 

Let me tell you!!!

Starting this weekend, Kevin and I will begin more than a year of awesome show-going. Live theatre is our absolute favorite activity to do together! (Well, at least one I can tell you about...) ;-) And this line-up is incredible! Each show will give me motivation to keep losing and look great in an awesome outfit, because I will take a picture at each show to demonstrate my progress!!! Check over the months of musicals and straight plays to come and check back to see how my progress unfolds!

Coming soon to a blog (well, this one, anyway) near you:

Question: Do you love theatre? Some other type of fun outing-activity?

** Updated** Rename Me: Win a Handmade Washcloth

 

"A Ginger's Genesis" ----  was the best I could come up with when I decided I wanted to start a blog.

Now, however, I just don't feel like it fits.


"One redhead's journey into new beginnings." 

Yeah, no, I don't feel like this captures the heart of this blog, or me, for that matter.


So, if you have the urge to help me out....

you could enter

MY VERY FIRST CONTEST!!!


Write your suggestion in the comments section, and the winner will receive two of my handmade 100% cotton washcloths

The contest will begin today and end a week from now at midnight. 

The winner will be determined by the best suggestion. If, for some reason, no one comes up with a name that I think really fits, I will use a random number generator to give me a winner - so someone will get two awesome washcloths no matter what!!!


So, look through the blog for some inspiration, and help to Rename Me!!!
