from a person’s profile page or search results. They don’t have to respond by the deadline for you to be eligible, you just have to send the Friend Request.That’s It! On Monday, Dec. 14 at 6pm (CST-US) we will pick at random five members who have both entered the “DreamFriendsForever” code AND sent at least one friend request.
Ahh, The Fine Print.
We will attempt to notify the winners at the provided email address. If we do not hear back by the 16th of December, there is a great chance your signed copy of Birdie’s Book will not arrive in time for Christmas. If you live outside the continental US there is an excellent chance it will not arrive for Christmas even if you do respond immediately. You do not increase your chances by friend requesting multiple people, but if you find a few more than one you’d like to friend, feel free to do so. You have to be a member of the Academy to send Friend Requests, but you do not have to be enrolled. To be “joined”, or to be “enrolled” (the next level up that allows social network access) is free, but enrollment instructions are only sent to members under 13 years of age.
You can of course also Buy Birdie’s Book for the tween girl in your life!

And since I’m a part of the Arbor Lineage, I want my presents to help the green world…or at least not harm it!! So I’m going to give to green charities and make my own gifts this year. Continue reading

On the Friday after Thanksgiving I take all the leftovers and turn them on their heads. My family loves it! Continue reading
