I didn't make this cake for my birthday by the way, I made it for the last Wilton Course #2 I attended. But I'm mighty proud of it.
And because Christmas is around the corner. And I finally got the tree up....
...And because I just realized this is my 101-st post....
One of you bloggers out there will win a $40 Amazon.com email gift card.
Funded by me.
Because even though I use Amazon.com a lot, A LOT, they have no clue who I am.
But I thought I should use them for my party.
Now I know giveaways are supposed to attract readership, so everyone does the multiple Twitter and Facebook re-post and re-tweets and yada-yada postings tied to their giveaways, but frankly, I tried Twitter and couldn't stand it, and I have been too thick or dense to attach my blog to Facebook yet.
Instead I thought this giveaway should just be for other bloggers out there who took the time to stop by and leave a comment about what they would buy if they were the winner.
So make sure you mention your blog name, so I can pay you a visit in return.

Congrats on the 101th post...thats a great milestone achieved. the cake looks wonderful.
congrats,..;-)

This is my first time here. Your writing reminds me of Joy the Baker a little bit. She is so funny and you are pretty close too.
I never even leave a comment for giveaways since I do not believe in following someone or subscribing for the sake of giveaway.
If I had 40 dollars to shell on amazon, I would buy 'Artisan bread in 5 minutes' book. If I buy another cook book, I don't know what will happen.
I blog at Versatile Vegetarian Kitchen.
Happy Birthday.
I would buy some books for my father...he can't do much anymore but he loves to read!
Thank you for the giveaway!
First time to ur blog. U have a lovely space.
I liked that cake decoration. It's lovely! I too completed 100 posts with my last recipe. So ditto :)
Well if I won the amazon gift card, I'll go ahead n buy the slicer-shredder attachment accessory for my kitchen aid stand mixer :)

Happy Birthday, Ann! Am here just to wish you, not for the giveaway.
Hey Ann,
Congratulations on your 101 posts!
If I get win this giveaway, I might end up thinking the whole day (maybe night too) as to what to buy! I want so many things...so I might have to shortlist a few among them :) It's most likely to be a few books that I have been eyeing for quite sometime :)
Hope you had a terrific day Ann
You know what, this has been the wonderful ,most simple and easy peasy giveaway I've ever come across. I do not enter most of the giveaways mainly because they'll ask you to tweet, toot and what not..lol..I'm a big customer of Amazon and if I win I'll get some (more) Bake wares for sure :D
OK, first and foremost of all, a very happy birthday. I know that is not your birthday cake, but it is worth to die for, simply amazing. Great work on tree as well.
Now, for Amazon, even I am a frequent buyer at Amazon, almost every 8 out of 10 things I buy online, comes from Amazon. So, obviously I am in for the giveaway and I would love to buy a dessert serving ware as I am soooooooooo in need of those.
Congrats on posting 101th post :)
Congrats!! Cake and tree both look wonderful!! Now, if I were to win the gift card, I'd swiftly get me a blender - mine has conked leaving me high and dry!!
