Today marks A Life of Geekery’s second birthday. When I started this blog, I had no idea where it might lead. Did I think I’d film my recipes with Loyd Grossman? Hell no. See my recipes on the side of products in a supermarket? Dream land. It’s been an incredible two years and I honestly feel that without my blog to focus on, I might have gone crazy from all the medical drama that whips in and surrounds me from time to time. So thank you!
And next year? Who knows. I’ve been playing with the idea of You Tube and filming more recipes, maybe that will happen.
I wish I could send a thank you to all my regular readers, instead I’m running a giveaway to win a retro sweet hamper from All Occasion Sweet Shop. The hamper includes: Sarsaparilla Tablets, Kola Kubes, Sherbet Lemons, Pineapple Cubes, Midget Gems. Chocolate Limes, Blackcurrant & Liquorice, Haribo Hearts, Pink Millions, Blue Millions, Flying Saucers, Foam Strawberries, Parma Violets, Candy Whistles, Lovehearts, Double Lollies, Drumsticks, Sherbet Fountains & Space Dust.
If you’d like to win this whole lot of retro sweet awesomeness, just use the rafflecopter widget below:
