So! The gift bags for the Federated Media cocktail party in New York were kind of jaw dropping thanks to a couple of good friends. Maile from Epiphanie Bags, the woman who did our family photoshoot, offered to give us a bunch of her camera bags:
Then our friends downstairs at Photojojo said they could get us some Fuji Instax Minis and film:
Are these gift bags ludicrous? Yes they are. Do you want one?
Leave a comment telling us something on your life list by Monday, August 30 at noon PST. Your comment enters you for a chance to win the Lola Epiphanie camerabag and Photojojo’s Fuji Instax Mini 25 Instant Camera. I hope you win, because I like you very much. Thanks for reading.
Now for the fine print: Please only leave one comment, because it’s the nice thing to do, and also because multiple entries will be disqualified. I’ll use random.org to select the winner, and I’ll announce who won at the top of this post and in a separate post on Monday.

Made my list about 6 weeks ago and included attending a writing workshop with Crescent Dragonwagon, something I’ve longed to do for five or six years.
I’m flying to Vermont on Thursday to attend Crescent’s workshop. Somehow, putting it on my list took if from “someday” to “now,” and “I’ll find a way” to “this is how.”
Thanks, Mighty Girl.
