[Edit: Comments are closed and a winner has been chosen!]
I can hardly believe it, but Scrumptious Photography is 1 year old today!! :) It has been a great year personally — I got married and had an amazing honeymoon to Greece — and I've loved meeting so many people through my blog and learning so much about baking, food and food photography.
In keeping with the holiday spirit and the celebration of my blogoversary, I wanted to share the love with all of my readers and have a giveaway! I'm sure you all love free stuff as much as I do, so read on to see the prize...
But before we get to the giveaway, I want to tell you about a couple of new things going on ;) I've recently joined Twitter! If you're also on Twitter, let me know by following me. You can also keep up with my tweets in the Twitter Updates section at the right.
Also, you can now subscribe to my blog through email, as well as in your RSS reader like before. Either click on the "Subscribe" link at the top right, or scroll down to find the Subscribe via Email button.
Enough of that... on to the actual giveaway! ;)
...::Drumroll::...
It's a Jessie Steele snowflake apron!
Yes, it's the uber cute one that's on the Jessie Steele homepage at the moment. I got it at Girly Aprons (sorry to the guys... distinct lack of manly aprons there). By the way, I just want you to know that I am totally jealous of whoever wins this. But I'm pretty sure A. would object to my keeping it, since I already have 2 aprons in our tiny closet ;)
Here's how to win...
- Leave a comment on this post! Tell me what your favorite holiday song is :) (Mine is The Christmas Song!)
- Make sure I have some way to contact you to let you know if you've won.
- Multiple entries will only count as one.
- The winner will be chosen at random using random.org.
That's it! I'll announce the winner next Wednesday, December 17.
In the meantime, check out some photos of the packaged apron by my teeny Christmas "tree" (which is actually rosemary!)
Good luck and Happy Holidays!! :)

Happy blogoversary! What a great blog you have!
That apron is gorgeous! My favorite holiday song is the Chipmunk Song (Christmas Don't Be Late). :)
Happy Blogoversary! I'm a recent subscriber--love visiting :)
Can I just say, my husband and I went to Greece over the summer for vacation and had a wonderful time too. I just looked through all of your Greece posts and was so reminded of how beautiful it was there and how much I miss it. You look like you had a fabulous time, and ate lots of good things (How can you not in Greece? We did too!) You made a comment about how you took so many pictures--don't even worry, we did too, and I had a heck of a time trying to downsize for the two blogs posts that I did on our trip, haha. Congratulations on your recent wedding!!
My favorite holiday song, or songs, are The Christmas Waltz or There's No Place Like Home for the Holidays. Or, any Christmas song by the Carpenters. Hee, can't pick just one! :)
Happy blogoversary, Kim! I adore your blog and can just stare at your pictures all day long!
I've always had a weak spot for The Little Drummer Boy.
Happy blog day too you!!!My favorite Christmas song would have to be Jingle Bells!What a happy song.Cool giveaway! Thank you.
HAPPY 1ST YEAR BLOGGIVERSARY!!!
**Favorite Christmas Song = "I'm Dreaming of a White Christmas"
Happy blogoversary! I love checking in with you to see what you're up to and admire your photography. Two of my favorite Christmas songs are "River" and "What Child is This".
Happy blogoversary! I love your blog and that apron is way too cute! I think my favorite song because of memories is "Feliz Navidad"
Happy Blogoversary!! My favorite song is O Come All Ye Faithful.
Happy Happy Blogiversary! We must have started our blogs around the same time. Mine is in 4 days. w00t! I'd say my classic fav xmas song is "Silent Night" but my contemporary is "All I wnat for Xmas is you" by Mariah Carey. So cheesy but I love it. I hope I win. Goodness knows you can't have TOO many aprons right? haha

Happy Blogoversary! My favorite xmas song is also "Silent Night". I hope i win it. it'll be a great gift for my wife. your blog just getting better and better. Love your food pictures. keep up the great work.
Happy Blogiversary to you!! My Favorite Christmas song is really an entire album - I love Amy Grants Christmas CD it plays from Dec 1st until the 25th each year!!
I congratulate you on a year of beautiful blogging. How cool. My favorite Christmas song is Christmas Time's A Coming by Bill Monroe. Les Paul also does a really pretty Jingle Bells.
As a recent transplant to LA from the East Coast, I NEED memories to get me in the holiday spirit with 70 degree weather in December. We know that cookies are the lifeblood of the holidays as is "I'm Dreaming of a White Christmas" but the version by Otis Redding. Love your blog and share your food addiction! A. E.
What a beautiful apron! I found you on Twitter, too (I'm flyingwithkids). My favorite Christmas song is The Christmas Shoes and Michael W. Smith's Christmas CD **every** year
Love the blog, Kim!!!
"Last Christmas" by Wham! has got to be one of the top songs of all time ;)
nice apron! ummm... I'm not sure I can pick one Christmas song. I have favorite albums--The Carpenters, The Muppets (w/ John Denver), etc.--but I couldn't pick just one song. I suppose Nat King Cole singing "The Christmas Song" is really the epitome of all Christmas songs, though.
Oh man, I'm not sure I can pick just one Christmas song. I am one of those crazy people who REALLY LOVES Christmas music...and pretty much all of it! If I had to pick thought...hmmm. I'm a big fan of White Christmas and Let is Snow. And also Jolly Old Saint Nicholas. Oh, and Baby it's Cold Outside. Totally not one song...I know...
That apron is so adorable! I love it! Thanks for the chance to win it!!
Happy blogoversary!
How about the one where grandma gets run over by the reindeer....it's a country music song... always, always makes me smile.
Happy Anniversary to you! Your blog is wonderful, you can be proud. :)
My favorite Christmas song is O Holy Night.
That apron would definitely add a festive note to holiday cooking! My favorite Christmas song is O Holy Night.
Happy anniversary! I have a traditional favorite (carol of the bells) and a nontrad (grandma got run over by a reindeer) - can't choose! :) That apron is the cutest EVAR.
happy blogoversary! your blogs is one of my favorites. that apron is awesome.
my favorite christmas song is rockin' around the christmas tree by brenda lee. i like singing it really loud.
Happy anniversary! I've always wanted to go to Greece. "White Christmas" is my fave. Cute apron :)
Just added you to my Twitter!
Happy Blog-iversary!! You've only been blogging for a year?? You seem like such a pro, I thought you had been doing it for longer! I love your blog, and your pictures, and I'm flattered that you come to visit mine and leave comments!
Favorite Christmas song? I love them all, but I am getting a little tired of "Jingle Bell Rock". They are playing it all the time on the radio! I've been listening to Christmas music since Halloween. Sad...I know.
Love the apron!
Happy Blogoversary! I had no idea that so many of us started blogging last December (mine is coming up later in the month). I have a hard time picking just one song. I have a whole bunch of holiday CDs that I listen to during the entire month of December. If I had to pick one, it would probably be Bing Crosby singing White Christmas, since that's my favorite holiday movie as well.
I love Jingle Bells!! It's just so fun!

Congratulations on your anniversary!
My favorite Christmas song is Darcy the Dragon, which is about a dragon who wants to buy Christmas presents for his friends but can't because "unlike a horse, a dragon of course breathes fire whenever he speaks" and he keeps burning down the stores. But then he swollows a bunch of snow, and it puts out the fire inside of him.

Silent Night is my favorite Christmas song.
Wow, that's a lot of entries!
Well, I love most Christmas music! Christmas is such a great season!
I've been singing peaceful Christmas music to my son at bed time lately. I love Winter Wonderland and O' Holy Night. Those are some I always come back to.
Well, thanks for the chance to win that cute apron. Your blog is really great. All you foodies really inspire me!
That apron is too cute! My fave Christmas songs are Santa Baby and Fairytale of New York.
I love your little tree too, oh how I want a little tree. My big one is getting old and no-one wants the chore of putting it together anymore but they all want me to put it up. It has been sitting in boxes in the family room for a week. Maybe today....
Happy blogiversary!! I love your blog SO SO much!
Ok, my favorite Christmas song is a tie between White Christmas (sung only by Bing Crosby!) and O Come All Ye Faithful...but if I had to choose only one I think it would be White Christmas...love it!!
