The cool weather reminded me that Thanksgiving is right around the corner, and if you're anything like me, you've already started planning. If you're nothing like me, please, no judging, I know I have a problem...a holiday addiction. Regardless of whether you're a planner or a procrastinator, this giveaway is perfect for you!
The Loose Goose emphasizes vintage decor with a past. Nicole's items are classically chic and can be customized to any occasion. She explained to me that the term "loose goose" comes from the meaning that if you are loose, then you have a past, just like these items!
How cute is that?
What's even cuter are her items. She (primarily) sells personalized antique silverware and serveware on Etsy. It's perfect for weddings, holidays or to mark special occasions, and it's affordable!
We are so excited to be giving away this gorgeous *Vintage Silver Plated Hand Stamped Thanksgiving Serving Fork & Spoon with a Lady Doris 1929 pattern, just in time for Thanksgiving. To enter, all you need to do is answer this question in the comments section below:
Be honest...what's your least-favorite dish that someone always shows up to Thanksgiving dinner with? The one that they insist you "take two bites of and you'll be hooked" and you actually never get hooked on.
The deadline is Sunday, October 14th at 5pm. Please leave your email address with the comment.
The winner will be selected randomly using random.org. Good luck, and don't forget to drop by The Loose Goose shop!
Love and cute things,

*Fork: 8 1/4"
Spoon: 8 1/4".
Hand Stamped "bless us & give thanks
You will receive the exact items shown.
Due to the size of these items they will be wrapped in tissue paper with a lovely coordinating ribbon. Please understand that silver plate flatware has a past. This means there are imperfections that represent the traces of history. I carefully select pieces that are beautifully designed and have a pleasing patina.
Cranberry sauce, for sure.
ReplyDeleteI know it's weird, but i hate stuffing !!!
ReplyDeletei luv it all!!!!! what's to hate??
ReplyDeleteSweet potato pie. Not that sweet potato pie itself is bad, but it can LOOK a lot like pumpkin pie. And nothing's more disappointing than taking a bite, expecting pumpkin-flavored goodness, and getting something completely different. ;-(
ReplyDeleteMy Grandma's "Frog-Eye Salad" made with Acini Di Pepe Pasta. Not so yummy!
ReplyDeleteStuffing. It's really all I need for Thanksgiving and is the only time of year that I eat it....your Gma Sanders makes the best. :)
ReplyDeleteGreen bean caserole!
ReplyDeletecranberry sauce...the kind out of the can that just "plops" onto a plate! ugh... homemade with real cranberries is SO much better! :)
ReplyDeleteThe turkey leg! I am a white meat girl, and the turkey leg always reminds me of the Flintstones for some reason:)
ReplyDeleteThe sweet potato casserole with marshmallows on top. Too sweet.
ReplyDeleteNothing, I love all food, Cos I am thankful for everything everyone has brought! :) TY
ReplyDeleteMy least favorite dish is definitely the sweet potatoes!!! Even with all the marshmallows on top...it just does NOT taste good! ;)

I can't say I don't like any of the foods that are shared at thanksgiving, I am not picky at all and usually love everything :)
ReplyDeleteHonestly, I only take a bite or two of turkey...it's just not my thing!
ReplyDeleteMy least favorite dish is cranberry sauce and the one people always insist to eat some I sweet potatoes with marshmallows!

My least favorite dish is Cranberry sauce, or canberry sauce, as my fiance calls it. And then it's shaped like the can do.

Hate chunky cranberry sauce (but I do love the jiggly stuff in a can!!)
ReplyDeleteI married into a family of folks from Minnesota. My mother in law always insists on making stuffing with oysters in it and an abominable green jello salad they call "goulash." Every year they insist that I will try it and like it.
ReplyDeleteThis is awful but...my sister in law's dressing recipe that her grandmother and her mother have made for years. It is just gooey and I can't stand it! I always take some to be polite, but ugh

sweet potato casserole. no matter how many times i hear, "it's like a dessert!" i can't do it. nast.
ReplyDeleteThe thing that I despise the most is cabbage rolls. Don't get me wrong my Aunty makes a recipe that is to die for... anyone else who attempts to make it fails utterly.

cranberry sauce, yuck. It's just this gelatinous blob! haha
ReplyDeleteMy aunts stuffing. She adds carrots, celery and chop meat to it. That's not stuffing. Plain stuffing from a box is what I enjoy. I always take a few bites to make her happy but ugghhh.... Not good.

It would be the green bean casserole. It just does not do it for me! mjn132(at)gmail(dot)com

ReplyDeletesbabij2 at shaw dot ca
My least fav is this nasty green bean casserole my (beloved) elderly relative makes. I'm not sure what's in it, as it's an utter mishmash of flavors and textures spoiling perfectly lovely green beans. But I love the cook so I choke it down every year. :)
ReplyDeleteIt would have to be really milky potato salad, the person who makes it has no restraint with ingredients. ugh!
ReplyDeletewalkbyfaith3715 @ yahoo.com
Oh boy! Shuckins. I'd say probably the turkey and the pie. I'm not big on dessert anyway, and it seems like the turkey is always too dry. Though I love dark meat....white meat isn't that great!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the giveaway! I favorited Loose Goose's Etsy shop. How adorable! I'm going to add her to this week's Handmade Roundup on my blog. :D

Stuffing.
ReplyDeleteI absolutely loathe stuffing. Every year, a different relative makes it. They always tell me it's so delicious and has wonderful flavor, and I really should try it.
No. I hate stuffing. I appreciate that they want to share, but I really wish they wouldn't.
Cranberry sauce. I can't stand that nasty stuff.

ReplyDeleteCanned cranberry sauce is just horrible...I mean, if it's not jello or jelly, food shouldn't look like that, and it just tastes bad.
ReplyDeletegantzgirl87(AT)gmail(DOT)com
Some disgusting jello type mushy mess. Also while I love sweet potatoes, I despise them when they are loaded with marshmallows or other sugary stuff or in a pie- I think they are extremely sweet on their own and my teeth literally hurt when I try to eat them with the sweetened toppings.
ReplyDeleteThat's a hard question because I like EVERYTHING. I usually pass by jello salads though.
