National Pie Day, our SECOND anniversary + Vogue Pattern GIVEAWAY!

Posted on 8:14 AM by dvdsvdsdv

Friends, it gives me great pleasure to announce that today, January 23rd, is National Pie Day -- but that's not all!

Today is also our second anniversary here at MPB.  That's right, folks, on this day just two years ago, Male Pattern Boldness was born.  Today we're walking, talking, and nearly toilet trained!



Just like last year, the cables, cards, and flowers have been arriving nonstop from so many celebrities and friends around the world, including --

Mae West



Miss Barbara Stanwyck



Dr. Lorna Gallo (soon to be seen in the uproarious Noah's Very Unusual Insight)



The surviving cast members of Petticoat Junction



And so many more.

As has become a tradition here at MPB, I have a very special pattern giveaway for you on this very special day.  It's the beautiful Vintage Vogue repro 1948 pattern, V2787, in a (contemporary) size 12-14-16 (34", 36", 38" bust).  The pattern is complete and uncut.

Isn't it dreamy?



Can you name these two lovely bloggettes in their own versions?





MPB readers the world over are eligible for this giveaway, and all you have to do is leave a comment below.  Please share your favorite kind of pie, most inspiring MPB moment of last year, or just let off steam. (If you want to say hi but don't want the pattern, just let me know.)

As always, our staff are here for you, and qualified clinical social workers are standing by.*

You have until Tuesday (tomorrow) midnight EST to enter, and I'll announce the winner on Wednesday.

I wish all of you a very Happy Second Anniversary -- please have a slice of pie on me.

Have a great day, everybody!
