Paying it Forward

Rules:
*Be one of the first five bloggers to leave a comment on this post, and you will be given or sent a handmade gift from me! (read: homemade treat of some type)

*Winners may choose to post this challenge on their blog, or they can just 'pay it forward' in some other way.

*Basically we are starting a chain of 'pay it forward' kindnesses.

I got this from my friend who had this post on her blog yesterday. (I modified it a bit) Though it is definitely not my style to do this type of thing (forwards, games, surveys, etc) I have to admit, I was totally pumped to be one of the "winners." Originally you are supposed to win a great homemade, home-crafted item. But anyone who knows me knows that I don't have that great talent. Instead, I will make you something good to eat. I promise.

Then you can go on and do something nice for someone else.

(And yes, Meridith, this includes you. And yes, Meridith, I promise this time to really send you the cookies and not just take the box to the post office where I sit in the car, open the box, then eat all of the cookies while I talk to you on the phone...)

This is such a cute idea! (But you don't have to send me anything, since I'm halfway across the planet.)
I was just thinking about the concept of Pay it Forward yesterday because I had to go to the hospital Wednesday to get checked by an orthopedic surgeon, and he didn't charge me a single cent for the consultation and he's not billing my insurance. I figured I needed to keep that chain of generosity going somehow. Still not sure what I'm going to do.
Love you, Deb.

Deb,
How about your top two recipes? I always read about the tasty things you're making and it makes my mouth water!

SMile,
Melissa :)

I would do just about anything to eat your yummy food. You are the top master chef I know! Since I am so far behind on my blog that I would never get the pay it forward part posted, how about we just trade fun things instead. Any craft projects you need that I could exchange some yummy food for??
