This contest is now closed and the winning entry will be listed Saturday morning. Thanks to all who participated:)
It has been quite a while since Bloggy Giveaways stopped their quarterly Bloggy Giveaway Carnival......and I sure have missed it. I've been mulling this one over for some time now, and decided why not now! We are in the midst of Olympic excitement here in Canada.....it's the one time every two years that I really WANT to watch sporting events on TV. We have been so pleased here with the performance of our athletes. It must be an experience of a lifetime to stand on an Olympic podium, see your flag raised and to hear your national anthem play. It chokes me up to watch it at home, so I don't know how they keep it together on the podium. I'd cry.....like a baby.....but that's just me. Would you??

I will randomly select 1 winner from the comments on this post using random.org, and that winner will receive one pair of mittens. Should the number of comments exceed 100, I will draw a second winner as well. Winners will be contacted to acknowledge their prize. If I do not hear back from them within 5 days time giving me their mailing address, a new winner will be selected. Good luck and enjoy your Olympic Games!

Oh I love this giveaway- there's nothing better than a great pair of mitties!
I love speedskating! When I was a little girl I remember watching Dan Jansen and just being so captivated by how fast he could move and how I knew that I could never ever do something as graceful as that.
Thanks for the giveaway!

Hi : ) we've been certainly following Olympics from waaay over here (& even signed up for extra channels temporarily to do so). I have a few favourite sports to watch, but I really like short track speedskating, snowboarding & the downhill skiiing events & various figure skating events. Would love some glorious red mittens & would proudly wear them on our chilly winter mornings.

I am so following the Olympic Games. I have enjoyed so many things this time. Its really difficult to say what I like best. I guess I would have to say the downhill skiing/slalom type courses. Very exciting and inspiring.
