Ham it up

Did you think I forgot to do a contest today? I didn’t forget. My Monday just sort of exploded unexpectedly. I think I still have some on my shirt, here, even. Sorry about that.

A little while back a nice lady from Cook’s Ham (warning: site has sound) contacted me to see how I feel about ham. I am extremely pro-ham, as it turns out. Though my daughter is a vegetarian, so you can imagine the hilarity that ensues around here when we eat it. (Woo!) (She especially loves it when I say, “Mmmm… pork fat” ala Homer Simpson.)

To further nurture my love of ham, I was sent a coupon good for one ham up to $30. That’s a lot of ham, y’all. Maybe you would like it? One lucky Want Not reader is going to receive this coupon, good through the end of the year, to redeem for a Cook’s Ham. Yum!

Want to win it? First go read the contest rules and regulations, then come back here and leave a comment on this post by 11:59 p.m. Eastern (that’s 8:59 p.m. Pacific) on Wednesday, October 28th, 2009 to be entered. Winner to be determined by random number generation and amount of drool produced by the word “bacon.” (Um. Ewwwww.)

Thanksgiving is coming. Christmas, too. Ham is awesome. Free ham is awesometastic!

Ready? Go!

    Random generators don’t like really small numbers, do they? Oh well. Thanks for the opportunity and hope your explosion debris settles reasonably.

    Sarah October 26, 2009 at 5:57 pm #

    I like ham! But I don’t like bacon, so there’s no drool at all produced by hearing that word. In fact, my mouth is so drool-less that it’s rather dry, maybe I’ll go eat a chocolate chip cookie… mmm…. okay, chocolate chip cookies can make me drool….

    Green Eggs and Ham is my favorite book from my childhood. It started me on the path of loving ham, bacon and most everything pork related.

    Can’t come up with a suitable rhyme at this time – but we love ham for thanksgiving! No turkey roasting around here – any other time of the year, I just don’t follow the holiday *rules* is all. :-)

    Thanks!
