Cans for Comments

I was checking out Anne Ruthmann's blog and saw that she is doing an awesome thing called Cans for Comments. There are a lot of bloggers doing this, and each is agreeing to donate one canned/boxed/non-perishable food item for every comment left on their blog.

I am jumping on this bandwagon and will be hitting the grocery store on Tuesday December 16 to donate one item for every comment left on my blog between now and then to the Salvation Army food bank, which serves the local community.

So, if you're a blog stalker, now's the time to become a blog-commenter! You can comment on any post anywhere on this blog, and it will count.

If you don't know what to write, then answer a question:
What's Your Favourite Part of Christmas Dinner?

Okay, I realized I should give a little more info:
if you don't see where it says "post a comment", to post a comment, click on where it says "x comments":


I don't use word verification and you can also comment anonymously.
