My sister is such a Chick-fil-A freak that she and her co-workers once dressed up as cows to win a free lunch at one of the restaurant locations in South Carolina.

It’s no surprise, then, that she was the one who sent me an e-mail announcing an upcoming chance for all of us to score free chicken strips on Labor Day at a Chick-fil-A near us.

According to the company’s promotional site, all you’ve got to do is visit a participating Chick-fil-A between 10:30 a.m. and closing time on Labor Day wearing any clothing or accessory that has a collegiate logo, or the logo of your favorite recreational football team, middle or high school football team, or professional football team.

If you do that, you’re eligible for three of the restaurant’s new chicken strips, which they are advertising as “bigger, tastier and dippier.” I guess this promotion serves as advertisement for their new strips as well as a celebration that football season is upon us. I can handle that!

In other news, please make sure to post a comment about why you want to win “Eat, Shrink & Be Merry” by Janet & Greta Podleski. The Cookbook Giveaway ends at 5 p.m. today and I’ll announce the winner tomorrow.

Stay dry. Eat a bowl of soup. Warm up.
