Pay it Forward

Last night, I happened to read a facebook status of a friend that said the following:

2013 Pay it Forward Challenge: the first 5 people to comment on this post will randomly receive a homemade goody from me sometime this year. No warning, it'll just show up on your doorstep! The catch: you first five must also post this and do this for five people as well! Annnnd GO!

I loved this!  How great!  5 of her friends near and far would be given the gift of homemade goodness....which I'm told is fabulous, and the pictures she posts of the food she makes leave me drooling like a St. Bernard at a picnic.  So, of course I was the first person to comment!  And then I got to thinking...WHAT IF I post this status and give myself an added challenge of kindness?!  What if I not only send homemade treats to 5 people who comment, but I also send a special treat to an agency or First Responder station of their choice?!  Oh, and these special treats will be given in the name of whoever commented as a way of keeping up with the true theory behind it--to Pay it Forward!  

Sooooo, here we go friends!  The first 5 people who read this blog and comment will receive a special homemade goody from me and an agency or First Responder Station of their choice will also receive a special treat in their name!  But don't forget to PAY IT FORWARD!  :) 

**NOTE: Please do not put your address in the comment...simply leave an alternative method for me to retrieve your address without the world of Blog knowing it (ie--junk email address)!  :)

Ready.....GO!
