Gardner’s Candies giveaway

Home » Reading » Gardner’s Candies giveaway

In: Reading, Uncategorized, Writing on: November 11, 2013

Tomorrow night I’m doing a talk at the historical society where I did much of the research for A Home for My Heart, so I thought what better time for a giveaway!

One of the “real” landmarks I inserted into A Home for My Heart was Gardners’ candies store. The first store opened in 1897 in a nearby town to my historical location. When I first started visiting my husband’s hometown, when we were dating, my visits always included a trip to Gardners for their famous peanut butter meltaways. We still rarely visit our family there without a quick trip to Gardners.

So I thought it might be fun to help you with your holiday gift-giving by giving away a box of Gardners peanut butter meltaways and an autographed copy (which I can personalize for your gift recipient or not) of A Home for My Heart. Just use the Rafflecopter form below to get started logging your entries. You have until Nov. 17th to enter, so get out your Christmas list and see who you can mark off if you win!

    Lol! Y’all are so funny! I was thinking I’d be helping out with your Christmas gift-giving, but looks like y’all have got that under control and are looking for some fun stuff of your own. (Not that I blame you of course. I mean chocolate, peanut butter, and a book. Doesn’t get much better than that!) 🙂

"The Work of His Hands: a novelette”

Bea wants nothing more than to go to college and learn more about the world God created. Her mother even left money in trust for her to do so. She only wishes her father supported her dream. But when Papa gets into financial trouble in the young town of Fort Worth, Texas, Bea must decide what is more important—her education or her father's well-being. Can she trust the God of creation to make something beautiful of her life?”

Along with the story you’ll receive my newsletter updates as well.
