Happy Hobo Giveaway- A Game of Hobo Stew

Happy Hobo Giveaway!

Follow the instructions below to win three free Happy Hobo watercolor prints of your choosing. You can visit my online shop to view all the available prints at- www.cedricwilford.etsy.com

Here’s how this giveaway is going to go down: We’re making Hobo Stew!

Every time Hobo Stew is made, the ingredients are different, because we use whatever is lying around. I have 15 different ingredients for Hobo Stew written down in a secret place. What you need to do is 1. Go to the comment section of my blog between today (Monday) and Thursday at 9 pm. and 2. Write as many ingredients as you can think for a delicious Hobo Stew. Whoever writes the most ingredients that match the ones I already have written is the big winner! I will announce the winner on my blog the next day (Friday), so check back to see if you won. When you have found out that you’re the winner, you can write me and tell me which three prints you would like and I will send them to you posthaste. Good Luck! P.S.- if you post this giveaway on your own blog so all your friends, family, relations, and enemies can see it, and you end up winning, I will throw in an extra print to sweeten the deal.


It's True!

Here we go: Potatoes, carrots, one large rock (I learned that somewhere random), beans, water, orange rhine, celery, corn, random casseroles in the fridge, cheese, more potatoes, a sock?, sawdust, rice, and seasoning (anything you can find, salt, pepper, etc.). Bring to a boil and allow to simmer for 20 minutes.

P.S. I have a job proposition for you, so if you want to email me or Ammon I'll give you the details. melanee@storiesyoushare.com

I mean, I don't know what goes in a hobo stew, but I know that I would love the hobo collection that you have, and the garden veggie vampire. These would be perfect for the girls room.

Well, let me list some ingredients just in case:

Baked Beans,
Coyote,
Rabbit,
Stones as in stone soup,
Weed (interpret how you want),
Frog legs,

Scorpion,
Ants,
Potatoes,
Salt (free from fast food joint),

Sounds delectable.
