B-Side Blog Is Back On The Grid! Also, A Contest Update

As some of you may have noticed, I haven’t posted anything on this blog in nearly a week. That’s because I spent four days sans laptop, thus rendering me powerless as a blogger. The good news is that my laptop and I have been reunited, and now I can resume normal blogging activities.

First things first: some housekeeping. Over the summer I launched two contests, neither of which I ever announced the winners of. One was for a copy of Rocco DiSpirito’s cook book Now Eat This! I’ll be honest: I totally forgot about the contest. I pledge to try the submitted recipes next week and provide a winner.

As for the second contest, I challenged readers to submit haikus in order to win a free Beauty Express Brow Kit from Anastasia of Beverly Hills. Well, I’ve selected a winner. The glorious haiku after the jump…

And the winner is…

DearTwisty for this lovely little piece:

My Plucking Haiku (a drama)

Tweezers…from above.
NO, let me LIVE, says the hair.
Pluck you, rogue eye brow!

Well done. Be sure to email me your mailing address at bsideblog at gmail dotcom.

Congrats!!

As for the rest of you readers, stay tuned. Two very exciting new contests will be announced in just minutes!
