That is how Jeremiah says it! And it's so stinkin' cute when he says it at just the right time!
Anyways... HOLY MOLEY COW! I clocked in over 20,000 visitors as of this weekend. I don't remember exactly when I put the counter on there but it's been in the past year and a half or so, I think. I was watching it and wanted to have some kind of drawing or contest to celebrate (and just 'cuz it sounded fun!) but I almost missed it because the last 200 visitors slipped on me in the past 2 days ~ SERIOUSLY?!?! Who are all of you?!
So... I am giving away something really cool. I just don't know what yet. lol Maybe a gift certificate to Starbucks can keep someone warm this winter??? If you're not a coffee drinker, they've got some yummy hot chocolate too! Or it makes a nice re-gift! haha!
All you have to do is show yourself (friends and family can play too!). Make sure to put your name and maybe how you found my blog or why you visit but you have to answer the following question to qualify and so I can maybe get to know you better!
Question: Would you rather have one year of free chocolate or a lifetime of free potatoes?
(I love these questions, I may have to do this more often...)
Okay, so I'm sporatic in my posting lately so you may be sporatic in your visiting, I'll give you until this friday (Dec. 19th) to comment ON THIS POST. K? Oh, and even if you don't want to win anything - please post a comment so I know who is stalking this blog!
Ok... Go comment already!
As much as the one year of free chocolate sounds absolutely wonderful I better go with the lifetime of free potatoes. The chocolate would just add back the pounds I've fought so hard to shed.
ReplyDeleteLuv ya girl!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I think I would like the lifetime of free chocolate because potatoes are cheaper to buy in bulk then the chocolate and plus its yummy stuff!!! Helps a girl get thru the day ya know! lol I love the pick of Jeremiah! He is so adorable!!! As far as how I found your blog....duh...you sent me an e-mail to let me know you have one and to check it out....but then I am a friend of yours....so that would be a given...lol I love you girl, you are too cute! How is the rest of your troop?

I'm not a big chocolate fan so would have to go with the potatoes. When I diet my grandaughter, Rosie, will call me and say, "Guess what I'm eating? French fries", just to bug me.
ReplyDeleteI would take chocolate. I visit your blog, because I like to look at your pictures and read what Jeremiah has to say! Your boys are such cuties!
ReplyDeleteWell, probably the potatoes, I am not a big chocolate fan.
ReplyDeleteAnd I found your blog because I am your cousin!

I'd go with the chocolate, I dont have a lot of use for potatoes right now :)
ReplyDeleteand of course i found this from the Meetup/Forum
Hey Joanne! Its Noelle! How did I find your blog? You sent it to me and told me to look at it? Why do I visit? Because I don't get to see you often so this keeps me feeling in touch - plus your boys are adorable and your photography has gotten incredible!
ReplyDeleteAnd would I rather have chocolate or potatoes? I'll go with potatoes... Did you know that you can make candy out of potatoes? So there's the loophole - best of both worlds! Here's the recipe for anyone who's interested:
Potato Candy:
1 cup mashed potatoes or 1 medium sized potato (cooked)
1 cup powdered sugar (approximately) may need more if not firm (icing sugar)
1 tablespoon vanilla
1 tablespoon maple syrup
1/2 cup butter
peanut butter (crunchy or smooth)
Combine mashed potatoes, powdered sugar, vanilla, butter and maple syrup until a dough forms. It's better to wait until the potato is cooled because if you don't, the sugar melts and you seem to have
to add a lot more sugar than if the potato were cooled. Roll the dough out to whatever thickness you like. Roll it to about 1/4 inch or maybe a little thicker. Spread peanut butter (crunchy or smooth) onto the rolled out dough. Roll the candy up and wrap it in wax paper or plastic wrap. Put it in the refrigerator to harden it up a little. Slice and eat.
Ok, WHAT'S MY PRIZE?! :)
Why am I just now finding your blog? Well anyway, now I'm here thanks to facebook.
ReplyDeleteAnd it's no contest. Lifetime of free potatoes. Potatoes are a top-five food. And you'd save a ton of money over a lifetime ...

Oops. Well, at least now it looks like you're getting more comments :)
ReplyDeleteWell, you KNOW I stalk your blog, so I have probably contributed at least a couple hundred visits to your counter, LOL! As for your question, I am a total freak and don't much care for chocolate OR potatoes, so I'd have to pass on both! I know, I know. :p
ReplyDeleteI've popped my head in a few times. I found you from the MeetUp forum. And I love chocolate! but french fries are a close second. hehe
ReplyDeleteHey Joey - Poet here! I've been subscribed to you in my Reader for a while now.
ReplyDeleteAnd you know me - I'd pick the chocolate!
Chocolate... oh oh oh chocolate :)
ReplyDeleteHmmm... is that enough potatoes for a family of 13? And can I get them pre-peeled? I'm a Dutch girl at heart who grew up with potatoes at every supper, but I married an Italian who only likes them fried. Might as well eat chocolate then, right?
ReplyDeleteYou know I'm a faithful reader. I love a good photo and your mommy moments are always special.
This makes my second visit to your blog, because you told me where to find it! Your work is beautiful, and so is your play with your sons :) Keep clickin'!
ReplyDeleteDefinitely the chocolate! I'm not for sure how I found your blog, I'm guessing that it was through another blog that you commented on. I love your Mommy Moments and your gorgeous photos.
ReplyDeleteYes! I am a blog stalker of yours from way back!!!! and you know I love chocolate! You got me hooked on Choxie Mint Chocolate from Target. I will take that please. I love ya..How could I now look at your blog...
ReplyDeleteOh...chocolate - hands down. I like potatoes, but chocolate will always win in my book ;) This is my first visit with you. I found you via Amy's Daily Pleasures blog :) By the way, your photos are beautiful! I'll be back for more visits :)
ReplyDeletehands down, the chocolate. And it is seriously at need...at certain times of the month ;) I just happened to visit, following a link you posted at 2peas. I don't stalk blogs much. It is fun though when I have the time. I have enjoyed ready yours today. Thanks!
ReplyDeletedef the free chocolate
ReplyDeleteThe potatoes...not much of a chocolate eater except around the holidays...
ReplyDeleteI found your blog through one of your Mommy Moment links on the 2peas photography forum.
You're boys are adorable.
