Eat More Kale T-Shirt Contest!

I was introduced to Bo’s site Eat More Kale by one of our viewers.  Bo, who resides in Vermont, became a farmer’s market sensation with his made-one-at-a-time soft cotton t-shirts.  You’re going to want one.  Here’s Jane wearing one (and munching on the appropriate leaf):

eat-more-kale

How to enter:

Add a comment that is a  second line to the phrase “Oh the joy of eating the super food kale”. Your  line has to rhyme.  For example the entry could read “It keeps my complexion rosy, never pale”.  You get it. Extra points that don’t count if you incorporate a rhyming word that hasn’t already been used. Only ONE entry per person please.  I’ll delete multiples…

We’ll draw a winner on July 14th.  The winner will be able to choose any t-shirt from Bo’s site (men, women or children sizes, lots of earthy colors, several designs) and he cheerfully agreed to mail the shirt to the winner directly from Vermont. You might want to check out Bo’s you tube video on Screen Printin’ 101.  Scary fun.

What could be better?  New t-shirt, ode to kale, good times.  Get going! (tell your friends). Bale, dale, fail, gale, hail, hale, mail, nail…

WE HAVE A WINNER.  DRAWING TOOK PLACE 7/14/10.
