SweetBricks Giveaway

THIS GIVEAWAY IS NOW CLOSED

Fall is my absolute favorite season, all the smells, the colors and the initial chill of winter. I've noticed this season really brings out the bakers and the candy makers... so who better to share it with us than Ms. Jena and a tasty giveaway from SweetBricks!

In 2010 Jena and her two brothers started SweetBricks by handcrafting delicious gourmet butter toffee in their very own kitchen here in San Diego. Their original flavor is based on a family recipe that was handed down, but that hasn't stopped them from playing with flavors to create more delicious combinations. Now the family business is expanding coast-to-coast and creating even more exciting product like cotton candy, ice cream toppers and even starting their own restaurant!






Pumpkin Spice


Cookies n Cream


Pretzel (seasonal)


Peppermint (seasonal)


Peanut Butter Chocolate


Dark Chocolate Cherry

Giveaway item: Any bag of your choice to THREE lucky winners!

one year blogiversary

THIS GIVEAWAY IS NOW CLOSED

Wow, how time flies... My Little Artichoke is one year old today!

In celebration of the last 365 days AND it being my birthday next weekend, I wanted to put together a special giveaway from me to one of my lovely readers!



Recently I was strolling along the beach and happened upon a bead store. I chose to make this necklace because as far back as I can remember I've had a fascination with skeleton keys; I even have my most favorite key that I've come across tattooed on my arm! Making this necklace was so much fun, I truly wish I had the time and money to make lovely little keepsakes for people.

Giveaway item: 22" skeleton key and lock necklace made by yours truly
