This here is the last Mighty Summit giveaway! Hello, trusty tote.
Large Natural Zip Top Canvas Tote Bag by Lands End
Man, these things are useful, and strong. We use ours to carry our child like an expensive, overbred dog. No, I kid. We use it on our yacht.
Yours will not say “Gifts” on the front, but it will have yellow trim. You could use it to carry around all these books:
You Lost Me There, by Rosecrans Baldwin
Hey, my friend Rosecrans is a novelist! Even better, the book he wrote is very good, and you will like it. It’s about a memory specialist who loses his wife and later finds a set of index cards covered in her writing. He comes to learn that his memories of a perfect partnership aren’t true to his wife’s feelings of isolation and disenchantment with the marriage.
No One Cares What You Had fro Lunch, by Margaret Mason
This is a signed copy of my book, which is not a novel. But! It is very green and full of good ideas for your blog.
Wiley’s Guide to California Wine
In which you will learn that California wine is delicious. Apologies for the spoiler.
This is the book Laura edited full of great writing and photography from women around the Web. Also, it is pretty.
In addition to the tote, Lands’ End also threw in a gift card. You could use yours for this. Or this. Or one of these. Whatever you want, really.
$50 Gift Card from Soma Intimates
And who doesn’t need new skivvies?
To enter, please tell us about one thing that always makes you happy. And remember that we still have a few open giveaways, so put your name in over there too if you haven’t already.
Fine print: Please only leave one comment for each giveaway, 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 Monday.
One thing that always makes me happy? When my cat lets out an unexpected purr – kind of like when you let out an unexpected fart – and it surprises the heck right out of him. He always looks so surprised and disgusted with himself whenever it happens. It always makes me smile and laugh when it happens (about once a day).

Tucking into bed at night. I love it when my head hits the pillow and the duvet is tucked under my chin. My whole world comes to a peaceful place and I always go to bed happy.

The way my dog greets me when I arrive home, like I’m the only person on the planet that matters. (Sure, she does this to everyone else, too, but I like to believe that, with me, she really, really means it.)

Movies at the Castro Theatre always make me happy (the gorgeous ceiling! the Mighty Wurlizer! The eclectic assortment of San Franciscans!), but a foggy day matinee double-feature of something glamorous and full of cocktails like, say, The Thin Man and After the Thin Man, fills me with giddy delight.
