There were 16 total entrants. So, I went to Random.org & asked for a number between 1 & 16.

Number 10 is Laura E.
Laura – you have until noonish on Saturday to email me your mailing address. You can get in touch with me at gazellesoncrack (at) gmail.
Congratulations!
Now – what you DIDN’T know, is that there is a 2nd prize! The 2nd place winner also gets a slightly less elaborate gift basket – and the second place winner is:

CilleyGirl! Congrats! And, since you do not live far away, if you don’t mind, I’ll present your gift basket in person. If I work REALLY hard, it will be ready by Sunday morning & I can give it to you at the race.
So – congrats, winner! And Laura – please contact me as soon as possible.
