Tea and RIP: a giveaway

Well, the day hasn't turned out too badly after all despite my electoral chagrin. Thanks to everybody for all the birthday greetings! I also received a new book in the mail today from Random House, one I have been anticipating greatly -- The Gift of Wings, Mary Rubio's new bio of L.M. Montgomery!! Yay! I can't think of anything that could be more suitable for me today. Along with a day off work and some really really sinful brownie cheesecake, it's been a pretty decent day. But with all the new books coming into the house today, I thought I had better clear out a few others. And what better way to celebrate a birthday than by giving something away?

The last two books I reviewed have melded to form a new idea; a giveaway featuring RIP-ish tales and some very suitable tea! The tea is a new offering from my favourite local teashop, Distinctly Tea; despite sounding like a bit of a gimmick, the garlic vanilla tea is actually very tasty, a nice savoury tea to drink alongside a meal. It's been donated by Distinctly Tea for the purposes of this giveaway, and I've added a book about, of course, vampires -- Vamped by David Sosnowski.

So, to be entered into the draw, simply leave a comment on this post. I'll draw a name in a week, so you can enter until midnight (Eastern Time) of next Wednesday, Oct. 22.

Oh yes, and it is open to anyone, anywhere.

**oh, and you must pop over to Dewey's Hidden Side of a Leaf for a huge spooky Hachette draw!
