Prizes To Be Drawn For: Part 6

Today I’m sharing the last of the draw prizes in the Missy Barrett Stamp and Sticker Search 2024 and just like I wrote in my blog in Part 1, I shared these draw prizes in no particular order because all of these draw prizes are amazing.

Over in Gatlinburg, there’s this amazing mentalist, and his name is Erik Dobell. My mom and me, we’ve seen his show more than once and every single time, I cannot figure out how he does what he does. That’s probably true of everybody that goes to see his show because his show is called Impossibilities: Magic, Mindreading, and Mayhem. In fact, on his website, I read that the show has “stunning magic, reality-shattering mind-reading, and hilarious mayhem” and I totally can say that this is a perfect description of the Impossibilities shows we saw.

Sometimes I think I should ask Mr. Erik to teach me how to be a mentalist like he is because that would help me with my detectiving work but then I think it’s probably so much work that I wouldn’t have any time left over for improving my other detectiving skills, so I don’t ask. Lots of people think he’s superly amazing and plus talented because I read that he’s done his magic and mentalist act everywhere from Las Vegas to South Korea, and the NFL and Macy’s and Goodyear and other humongous companies have hired him to do shows for them.

If you’re the lucky winner of these tickets to attend the Impossibilities: Magic, Mindreading and Mayhem show in Gatlinburg, keep in mind that the theater is not a huge location so it’s always best to call ahead and make reservations with your tickets so you don’t get disappointed.

Also, I hand sewed and hand beaded this ticket holding sleeve for these special tickets. I thought it was important to make sure the winner of these tickets has a great reminder of the time they won tickets to take their family to see and experience the crazy fantastic Impossibilities: Magic, Mindreading and Mayhem show in Gatlinburg.

Prizes To Be Drawn For: Part 5

When Sunnyland Farms said they were donating a draw prize, I was very excited because I knew that whatever it was it was going to be a pecan-y perfect surprise, and I was right. Look at how fantastic that basket of goodies looks. Want to know what some of the goodies are?

Well, first off there’s a bag of milk chocolate almond toffee. Yum! And then there’s a bag of orange frosted pecans. Double yum! There’s strawberry jelly and there’s peach jelly, and plus, gallberry honey and other delicious treats (I only said I would share what some of the goodies are, not all of the goodies). I never heard of gallberries before but my Grandma Barrett said another name for gallberries is Appalachian tea, and then she told me that gallberries are an important nectar source for beekeepers.

In case you think this is a new business, I read on their website they’ve been around since 1948 (which is more than 75 years ago) and the farm where they grow all those delicious pecans is a 1,760 acre farm. I asked my big brother, Aaron, how big that was (because he’s superly good at math and plus he’s going to university and I’m just in middle grade school) and he said that a square mile is 640 acres, so Sunnyland Farms is almost 3 square miles. That’s a really, really, really big farm if you ask me.

I know that the person with the winning draw ticket for this prize is going to be so happy to take it home with them to share with their family members. If you don’t win this prize, don’t worry because you can visit Sunnyland Farms at Mountain Mile on Teaster Lane and make your own perfect basket up to take home.
