If you don’t follow me on Instagram or Facebook, you should! I’m having a giveaway each week, all month-long on there. Here’s my Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thefeatherednester/ and my Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/houseon3rd/
Why I’m Having a Giveaway
April marks the first anniversary of thefeatherednester.com. Since I post food/ home decor/travel/ style pics on Instagram and Facebook, and share my food prep in stories, I decided to have the giveaway on Instagram and Facebook.
First Giveaway
For the past several weeks, I have been all about making french bread since I found this really easy recipe (which I’ll post this week). Because of that, I decided that the first giveaway should be french bread related. I’m giving away a Chicago Metallic Professional French Bread Baking Pan and a set of Bread Armor bread storage bags.
Entering the contest is easy!
- Simply follow me on Instagram or like my Facebook page.
- Like the post that says Enter here and shows my latest french bread.
- Tag at least two friends who would like my Instagram or Facebook account.
Week one giveaway runs until Wednesday, April 11th, at midnight PDT. I will announce the winners on Instagram stories (or a Facebook post) on Thursday, and message the lucky winner.
Subsequent Giveaways
Each Wednesday, I’ll announce a new giveaway on Instagram and Facebook. Plus, I’ll be sharing the new recipe connected to the giveaway here on the blog. So check in at my Facebook and Instagram accounts to enter to win.

Changes on the Blog
I’m still looking for ways to streamline the recipes here on the blog. You may notice some changes going forward. Some of the ideas I’m kicking around are to only list recipes individually, rather than several at a time. Another is to have a static recipe page where the recipes are listed individually and linked. I hope you’ll be patient while I work this out.
Easter Weekend Photos
We had a wonderful time over Easter weekend.The weather was perfect, a high around 80 degrees both days. I thought I’d share some of the pics we took at our family celebratory events.
