Thanks to all of you who’ve been commenting on the “Mixed Bag” blog. We’ve been giving out bags as prizes for 14 weeks…and we aren’t done yet.
Congrats to Stephen Millard for last week’s great “you know it’s the Festival when” challenge. Give that man a bag! Also congratulations to AJ Jimenez who wins the raffle for the Baldacci-Trigiani tickets.
Now, back by popular demand is the put- a-C’ville-Restaurant-into-a-book-title challenge. But we’re upping the ante from challenge #13; this time, you must use a title from a participating author from VABook! 2009…
Mixed Bag Challenge#1: Can you add a Charlottesville restaurant into a 2009 participant’s book title?
Here’s the Participants list and C’ville Restaurants list if you need help. Examples: Rita Dove’s Sonata Milan. Adriana Trigiani’s Very Vivace. Go!
