523

I have a thing for numbers. 
Not math, numbers. 
I love odd numbers. 
I absolutely adore prime numbers. 

And, if the numbers within a number add or subtract to equal odd numbers, even better.
For example, my birthday falls on the  25th.
It's a glorious number.
2+5=7 (my lucky number)
5-2=3 (my second lucky number)
Plus, I was born in an odd numbered month, and an odd numbered year.
What could be better than that?

Today could be your lucky day. I was checking some details on blogger, and discovered that this post will be my 523rd post. Not only is 523 an odd number, it's also a prime number. To celebrate that fact, I'm  having a give-away. My first ever. 

I'm giving away this set of two SnackSleeves. I made them, and they are reusable snack containers. (You may use them however you want.) They are washable and lined with rip-stop nylon. My daughter Debra uses hers all the time for my adorable granddaughters, her terrific husband, and her sensational self. 
SnackSleeve
The pattern can be found here on Etsy. You can read more about the SnackSleeve at agreensleeve.com.

Here's how to enter: make a comment (only one) on this post. That's it. You have until Friday, October 1 at midnight. Then I'll do a random selection and the winner will receive the SnackSleeves shown above.

Who knows? Maybe 523 will be your new lucky number!

  10. Those are so cute! Here's my odd number fun fact- my birthday is on the 29th of the month, along with two of my boys (Bradshaw in April and Xan in Oct.) My father-in-law and step mother-in-law also have birthdays on the 29th, along with a niece on that side.
