I know for some of you, coming up with 10 items was difficult. Some letters are harder than others. I decided to turn this into a contest and offer a prize for one random winner.

*** JOANNE GATES ***

Joanne posted her answers on my Facebook wall and lives in Australia. She wrote on my wall, "Ok, J is a little hard, but here goes from my bedroom ... Jumper, Jeans, Jade brooch, Jelly (stuck on my doona thanks to my 4-year-old, hahaha), Jewelry, Juice (on the bedside table), Jersey (my footy one), Junk under the bed, Jumprope, and Jelly beans." Congratulations, Joanne! Pictured below is the prize I picked out and I'll be putting that in the mail right away. I hope you enjoy a little taste of Montana huckleberries!

Thanks to everyone who took the time to take the Letter Challenge. I realize you had to do a little work on this one, so I appreciate everyone playing.
