Today, March 11th, we are Giving Away... (PRIZES CLAIMED)


A Chic Apron and Swim Diaper Cover from Olive Jane Designs

If you’re going to be working hard in the kitchen, why not look cute doing it? Olive Jane Designs is here to help with their very hip aprons. The talented seamstress behind Olive Jane Designs loves her work and it shows in the quality of her products.


My daughter owns this adorable and high-quality skirt from Olive Jane Designs. Each time my daughter wears it I can’t quit looking at her throughout the day and thinking, “That is one of the cutest skirts I have ever seen on her!” I love it!

And today you have the opportunity to win some of Olive Jane Designs' products. The first is a darling apron:


It is made from 100% pre-shrunk cotton. It is very flattering, functional, and even sexy! So in other words, watch out ladies, your man will want more than dinner when he comes through the door and sees you in one of Olive Jane Designs' aprons.

The second product you can enter to win today is a swim diaper cover:


Olive Jane Designs' swim diaper covers are worn OVER a regular swim diaper. Due to an outbreak of cryptosporidium last year, almost all of the public swimming pools in our area make children ages three and under wear a swim diaper PLUS another plastic diaper over the top. At our local pool plastic white swim diaper cover-ups are $8.00. They’re just plastic, and boring. So why not purchase a cute diaper cover-up? You can even have your child wear a rash guard on his or her upper body and one of Olive Jane Designs' swim diaper covers over the swim diaper on his or her lower body. WA-LA: you have double diapered your child AND you have a swimsuit all in one.

ATTENTION: Olive Jane Designs is giving FREE SHIPPING (Yay!) to the readers of Give Away Today. In the notes upon check out you need to enter the code “giveawaytoday” and then Olive Jane Designs will refund the shipping through Paypal—it’s the only way that the Etsy/Paypal combo will allow Olive Jane Designs to do it. But hey, we’ll take free shipping any way we can get it, right ladies (and gents).

Each person can enter to win the stylish apron or swim diaper cover from Olive Jane Designs up to THREE times today.

For one entry leave your first and last name in a comment.
Example: Jane Doe

For a second entry visit Olive Jane Designs’ website here. Look at all of their darling products and then come back to Give Away Today and in a NEW comment tell us your first and last name and one of Olive Jane Designs’ products that you wish you owned.
Example: Jane Doe: Blue Harlequin Waterproof Diaper Cover

For a third entry I thought it would be fun to learn about our reader’s most embarrassing moments. In a NEW comment tell us your first and last name and one of your most embarrassing moments (your embarassing moment does not have to be pool or swimming-related).
Example: Jane Doe: When I was in eighth grade my dad took me and my best friend swimming with a youth group of about twenty boys (we were the only girls who got to go). That morning I snuck into my sister’s room and grabbed one of her swimsuits to wear. My friend and I had a great time swimming. Afterwards we jumped out of the pool and began talking (and flirting) with the boys. My friend quickly suggested we go to the dressing room. As we were walking away my friend told me to look down. When wet, the swimming suit had become completely see-through!! My sister had discovered this too and wore it only when laying out. This was a hard way to learn that I shouldn’t wear my sister’s clothes without asking.

The winner of the great products from Olive Jane Designs will be announced tomorrow, March 12th. Please visit us then to see if you are one of our winners and to check out the new giveaway for the day. Thanks!

Marianne Nicolaysen: My first day of my first real job in "the big city" was pouring rain. As I was getting off the el and taking the stairs down into the subway I slipped and fell down the stairs. They were gross and dirty which had become muddy with all the rain. It was rush hour in the morning and all these kind strangers stopped to help me up when I really just wanted a hole in the earth to suck me in. I ended up with mud caked all the way down the back of my khaki skirt - so embarassing!

Katie Rhamey - On “move in” day freshman year of college, my parents pulled the car up to my new dorm and student volunteers started helping to unload the car amidst a sea of my new classmates. One particularly strapping “older” male student picked up a plastic, stackable drawer unit to carry it to my room. Not realizing that the three drawers were actually separate pieces, about halfway to the building’s door, the unit bust apart and my “undies” spilled out all over the lawn for all to see! So much for looking cool . . .

I was in high school and I slipped on the hallway floor. I was wearing a very short skirt and I just started to slid on the floor. The skirt pushed up and you can guess the rest! I was glad I had on cute panties that day. My BF still teases me about it years later.

Chrissy Parkinson: It was a warm, springy morning and I was wearing my flipflops, shorts, and surfer girl t-shirt for the first time. I felt totally california, with my headphones in and my sunglasses on walking to campus loaded down with a bag full of books. I had 4 flights of stairs to climb when a HUGE class on the bottom floor just let out. I didn't want to get stuck behind slow people so I tried to run up the stairs ahead of the masses of people. At the very top I TOTALLY biffed it when my flip flop caught the edge of the top stair. My sunglasses went flying and my backpack went over my head, and my knee took a nasty gash. So much for feeling cool....

Rebecca Hughes - When I was a sophmore in high school, I was helping make spaghetti for a fundraiser dinner. I was playing basketball in the gym with a certain boy I had a crush on. We ran into the kitchen to help with the spaghetti. Well, the oven door was open...I tripped over it, and the entire oven tipped over. Spaghetti went flying all over the kitchen. I was mortified!!! Later I realized just how lucky I was to have NOT been severly burned or injured from the oven. Gotta love high school and those awkward teenage years! :)

I chased my 3 year old through the crowds at disneyland all the way into a mens bathroom. Yes and the bathroom was packed with men at the urnals. I screamed and ran out of the bathroom. The people outside on the bench had seen me run into the bathroom were laughing as I came running back out. It was then I realized that I had left my son in there. Soon a man came walking out holding my sons hand and laughing. I recieved alot of smiles from men walking out of that bathroom. I was so embarrased.

Andrea Stewart- When I was in college, I was kissing a boy and my tiny hoop earring got caught on his shirt by the neck line. My earring was so small that I didn't have any room to try to get it unstuck, and he couldn't see it to help. It took about ten long minutes and a tired neck before I got free.

Marisa Garrett: One summer during high school a bunch of friends and I decided to spend the day up at a friends cabin. After returning from a walk I was chatting with my high school crush and proceeded to walk right into the glass sliding door. There were people sitting at a table right inside the door and got to see the whole thing. Lucky me, I had TWO audiences to view my embarrassing moment.

Jenna Zufelt:
Moment-
In high school they would do these stupid tricks during pep assemblys and call random students down to do them. I was sadly enough picked and we were paired up guy and a girl and were told to pop a balloon by squeezing each other. Awkward enough as it is, but I am shorter and was paired with a TALL guy and we could not pop that balloon for the life of us. So just imagine us bouncing off each other while everyone laughed at the last ones standing....

Burwell's Bits said... 124

Ingrid Burwell; I started grad school after returning from an LDS mission in the Philippines so my English slang was a little rusty. I was talking with a group of guys about something and I couldn't remember if the right phrase was snow job or blow job...Yep, I used the wrong one.

I have embarassing moments all the time, so to pick one humn....when i was at my brother in laws college graduation, my husband and his brother both shve there heads have similar builds and both wore maroon shirts, I put my arm around his brother (who i thought was my hubby) and said hey babe have I told you how sexy you look today, He turned and looked at me and replied, uh no but thanks for the compliment.

Andrea Updyke - one of my most embarrassing moments was in the late 90s when we were all wearing the horrible platform shoes. I was out with some friends and we were standing around in a parking lot trying to decide where to go next and a friend and I started goofing off and pretending to riverdance...well in those shoes I turned my ankle and ended up breaking my foot! It was so awful to explain when people asked me how I got hurt :-)
