Giveaway: Mighty Summit Gift Bag

When we were pulling together gifts for the Mighty Summit, we set a few aside to give away. There will be Summit giveaways on Mighty Girl all this week, but this first one is a doozy. Here’s what’s up for grabs today:

Tieks by Gavrieli

I bought a pair of these perfect ultimate travel shoes a while back, and they’re one of my new favorite things. Tieks fold in half so you can stuff them in your purse, but the quality is amazing. They come in all sorts of candy colors and metallics — plus they pack flat and slip off easily when you’re heading through airport security. The winner gets to choose any pair for $135 and under. I recommend orange.

Photojojo’s Tokyo Dreamer Strap

I can’t believe how long it took me to replace my ugly, logoed camera strap. Photojojo’s Tokyo Dreamer strap really dresses up your camera, and even has a little pocket for extra memory cards or a lens cloth.

Lola Epiphanie Camera Bag by Maile Wilson

Maile was an attendee at this year’s Summit, and she brought along her bright Epiphanie camera bags. I use mine as my everyday purse and have finally stopped busting expensive lenses and gadgets by wrapping them in hand towels and shoving them into an un-padded purse. Now I can have my SLR, my flip, and my phone(s) with me without anything banging together and cracking or getting scratched by my keys.

And that’s it for today. Pretty good, huh? To enter to win, please leave a comment about something on your Life List.

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 next Tuesday.

  1. I crossed an item off my life life this weekend – I met a blogger in person! I’ll be crossing another off on Sunday by completing a half marathon.
    I love my life list! 🙂

  2. I wouldn’t be lying if I said that “win an on-line contest” wasn’t on my Life List 😉

    But on a serious note, I have “live in a foreign country for at least 1 year”… on there as well!

    Keep up the “Awesome” Maggie, you’re really good at it!

  3. My camera and I are praying I win.

    One thing on my life list is go play Bingo at a Bingo hall. My husband teases me about this one… but told me that he would be my date that night as long as I call him Earl. =)

  4. On my life list last year was to “grow vegetables” and I just harvested 40 pounds of carrots. Troubling but delightful consequences. Heh.

  5. I have slowly, but surely been composing a life list. The big ticket items are daunting: run a marathon with my boyfriend, publish my novel, get married, wear a bikini on the beach… it’s the random things that comes out when I start writing that bring me lots of happiness. I want to paint a room yellow, and learn to arrange flowers skillfully. I didn’t know these things about myself until I started writing.

  6. Ooh ooh I started this one today: design and make a bed-size quilt. The Victoria and Albert museum has a website that converts any image file into a quilt pattern, so I created a stylized version of the Montreal metro map. So excited!

  7. I’m working on one of the things on my life list right now – founding a weekly open mic night in my neighbourhood.

    Thanks for the awesome giveaway!

  8. Always have wanted to live in France. Sent out my CV to a University in Paris and am now on the short list to fill in (for a summer, semester, or year) when someone in the department goes on sabbatical. 🙂

  9. Every single day, I take a moment, hush down, listen to my heart and ask myself, “Am I being true to myself?”

    I don’t know if I will ever really check this one off my list, and that’s okay. I will try to be kind to myself until the day I die.

  10. My silliest, and most recently added, item on my life list is to make 12 different kinds of grilled cheese sandwiches. Today for lunch I made one with thin slices of leftover leg of lamb, colby jack, cheddar, and this amazing mustard from Das Wurst Haus in Lanesboro, MN.

  11. About a year and a half ago, I wrote my Life List, and one of the items on it was “Re-create V–J day in Times Square with someone I love.”

    Two months later, I fell in love with a (ex-)sailor. Coincidence? 😉

  12. I want to white water raft through the Grand Canyon on the Colorado river. Among other things (like traveling to China, owning a fancy camera, and having a baby).

  13. #12 on my life list is to help save a farm. We are currently attempting to save a piece of farmland in my town with the goal of starting a community farm on the land. We are about to submit our proposal to the town and hope our plan is more attractive than a soccer field.

  14. Downsize my house and get rid of stuff!! It may seem mundane, but with a toddler and another baby on the way, plus a lot of “precious family heirlooms” from various deceased relatives, we have stuff coming out our ears!! And my cluttered space is making my mind cluttered and thus unable to move forward with other goals and dreams.

    I was uber impressed with your recent post about family living in a tiny apartment, would love any more info on how you make it work!!

  15. Take both of my little sisters on a weekend getaway somewhere that none of us have never been. Bonus points for not making them stress about hotels and feeding themselves.

    Also: bike cross-country with my dad. Which means learning to ride a bike first.

  16. I want to teach English in Spain for a while. It combines a few of my “life list” items–to travel more, to live in a foreign country for a while, and a new one: to teach.

  17. I haven’t written out my life list yet, but I’ve begun it in my mind. Three things that I KNOW I want to do are:
    1. Give birth and/or become a mom.
    2. Make so many good and loving friends that finally someone throws a surprise party for me on my birthday – and I want it to be a true surprise. (Does this count, since it’s something that happens TO me, rather than something that I make happen for myself?)
    3. Attend a Halloween costume party wearing a really clever costume. (Have never dressed up for halloween as an adult!)

  18. I want to collect copies of all the books I loved as a kid to keep for my future children. I wish my mom hadn’t thrown them all out!
