One day a few years ago, I invented a holiday to celebrate strangely orange snack food, which I called S.O.S.A.D. (Strangely Orange Snack Appreciation Day). In order to take part, simply enjoy an orange snack food of some kind while meditating on the science that makes this color of food possible. What a wonderful time to be alive!
This year I've decided to have a little giveaway in honor of SOSAD. From what I've seen, maybe a couple hundred people (at the very most) have taken part in this holiday so far. It hasn't taken the world by storm the way I had hoped, so I've decided to try and bribe people with a chance to win something. To enter, just send a photo of you and at least one other person enjoying orange snacks to me, here, and I'll make a wire/object sculpture for you using a theme picked by you. I'll pick the winner later this week.
edit- I neglected to mention that June 21 is always the SOSAD date. I'll post the winner a few days later.

I always try to celebrate S.O.S.A.D! Now to find a willing accomplice for this contest!
We've been looking forward to S.O.S.A.D. all year! Finishing our stocking up today and tomorrow we're taking our celebration on the road and will bless 2-4 states with our strangely orange goodies.
There are no dates on your posts. How do we know when "later this week" is?
