And the winner is......

This sweet teapot set is finally going to a new home!

So that means a great, BIG CONGRATULATIONS goes out to. . .

I hope you enjoy the teapot set, Anita!  :) 

Many thanks to all who dropped by and entered the giveaway... I loved reading your comments!  After reading them, I suddenly had major cravings for hot cocoa, and eggnog, and apple cider, and... well, all of it.  ;)

Also this weekend . . .

We spent some time tracking dinosaurs in the unseasonably warm 88* weather. . .

paid a little visit to the candy store . . .

devoured some delish BBQ and fried pies (I tried the pecan pie -- YUM,) and celebrated a sweet wedding with family.  (Congrats, Josh & Kelsey!)  No pictures from the wedding, but here's the aftermath, on the loooong drive home. . . .

We are all wiped out, but look what I came home to today. . . .

YIPPEE!  Thanks, MAKE, for the feature! 

Pattern printing issues. . .

When I returned home, I saw in the comments that there was an issue with printing the pattern for the DIY Teapot Trivet and Coasters Set Tutorial.  I forgot to set the pattern to a "public" setting when the tutorial went live, and still had it set to private -- YIKES!  I'm so sorry!  It should work now without any further bugs.  Please let me know if you have any further issues with the pattern or tutorial in general.  Thanks for your patience!
