Pay it forward...

The first five people who comment on this post will receive a special little handmade gift from me sometime in 2013. May I ask in return that you also post this and pay it forward to others in some way?

I just recently tried doing this on Facebook and did not get five takers, so we'll see if this gets a better response. And, if you're one of the three Facebook commenters, please let fiver others 'win' this time. Thank you.

And thanks to Jeanne at Spiral for re-inspiring me to try again.
