Oh wait...looks like I forgot to water it. Hmmmm, I've got it. You can win something delicious for the chocoholic in you:



Much better. How do you win this yummy gift? Just leave a comment on this post. I prefer comments with sassitude, but any comment will do as long as it is family friendly. Maybe you could tell me something interesting about you! Contest ends Saturday, February 2nd and the winner will be announced Sunday, February 3rd.

Did someone say chocolate? Great, now I'm going to have to go find a piece of chocolate before I go just a little nuts! BRB...

Teddi said...

You said the magic word - all loyal subjects in our kingdom know that to get anything done around here it must be said with, accompany, come with a promise of or be dipped in chocolate! (Either that or a foot rub! but I digress...) Either way chocolate is never turned away! Thank you in advance if I win!

Liz said...

Ha ha! I was wondering how you could mail a plant without getting dirt all over the post office!

Awesome Mom said...

Much better than a pot of dirt lol

Julie Donahue said...

Chocolate is the language of the soul....

Meagan said...

You sure know the way to the blogger heart...chocolate!

The Chatty Housewife said...

You are right, I would much prefer the chocolate gift package than the old dirt! Cute pot though! Well something about myself... Hmm... I love to sing!

michelle said...

Oh my goodness! I almost spewed my morning Coke all over my keyboard! When I first started reading your post about giving away a plant, I thought you were giving away one of those pots that has a special flower bulb in it, which you would then send to the winner, they would water it, and it would grow. As I scrolled down and saw that that wasn't the case...well, let's just say you have a sense of humour similar to mine.

I wouldn't have minded a plant, but the chocolate prize sounds even better. I would love to be entered in your drawing.

I'm happy you aren't giving me a plant...cause it would have died over here anyway!

Something interesting about me...I am a mommy to four boys, ages 5 (almost 6) and under...and due in August with baby #5! What are my chances of having a girl...um, I'm thinking boy, lol. We'll find out in about 6 weeks :)

I'm thinking that all you'll need to do to perk your plant up is stick your little finger in it. Your sassitude will liven it right up! Thanks for the chance to enter your drawing!

Hey, that looks like my plants!!
Thanks for the great giveaway.

Qtpies7 said...

That is how my plants look if I am in charge. So my husband took over. He started a game with our 16yo dd. Every Monday they race to be the first to ask "Did you water the plant?" and that person has to water it that week. It is a huge competition. Setting alarms to get up first, leaving voice messages on cell phones... it gets crazy, lol.

Love the mug, I collect them, and then the kids break them. Brats.

Holladay Family said...

This post was made for me. When I was in College, I decided to have a pet plant. I named it Chocolate. One day I went home for the weekend and then I remembered about my tiny plant and raced (yes I raced back for a dumb plant) back to college only to find him dead. I was devastated. I tried having a few other plants which my mom had to rescue and keep. She later threw them away because they were beyond help. I have 3 (soon to be 4) children and they all get fed and watered. That is if you count mac and cheese and chicken noodle soup as food. So, anyway, I use chocolate to make it through the day. To win this would make my day!
My email is holladayfam(at)gmail(dot)com.

Thanks again!

brooke said...

I'm glad your giveaway is that cute mug and not the plant. Even if the plant were alive, I'd kill it. I more of a brown thumb than a green one. :(

Wendy said...

Great giveaway! Count me in:)

Anonymous said...

Anything with chocolate sounds fantastic to me!

Marcia said...

I have to have that mug! It's so gorgeous and it would be perfect for me at work. You see, they only serve coffee here and I don't drink coffee so I have to buy my own hot chocolate and use the microwave to heat it up in one of those styrofoam cups. THIS mug would make me feel so much sassier!! :-D

Anonymous said...

Fun. I Have some plants that need some attention, too.

Unknown said...

Mmmm, chocolate. I don't know if I can even muster any sass, in the face of chocolatey cookies and a cute little mug!

Thanks for the giveaway!

A chocoholic mug... mixing my two favorite addictions. Now all I'd need to do is wrap a skein of lovely wool yarn around it and it'd be the Valentine of my dreams! Maybe I'll have the opportunity (although I'm usually dreadfully unlucky when it comes to drawings. Where is the luck o' the Irish when I need it?)

Sorry but I am all out of sass for today. Thanks for the great giveaway!

Unknown said...

i wonder if i would be more motivated to care for my houseplants if they were chocolate plants....

Jenna Z said...

Tes283 said...

Water, please water me. Oh, queen of nurture please water me.

Yo Ho H2O.

lol - enough attitude for you sis?

Amber said...

Oh, I love the mug. I have a thing for coffee mugs. I have several cute ones, but this would be my new favorite one.

And I'm not good at sassy. I think of sassy about an hour later after the moment has long passed and it's too late. But I'm working on it. :)

PastormacsAnn said...

Mmmmmm. I hope I win!

noreen said...

sassy sassitude, that is my girls, can't think of anything they said recently but it is late, would still love to win

Beth @ The Natural Mommy said...

I was all excited about your plant. I thought it looked normal.

But THEN I SAW THE CHOCOLATE. And I forgot all about the plant. (Or lack thereof.)

Sheila said...

That's one of my plants! Please count me in for another pretty pot full of dirt or the chocolate!

Krista said...

POST FOR A MAGNET GIVEAWAY…

Having just become 50 and suffering from MENTAL-pause, I have found it necessary to balance my magnetic personality and a metabolism—that has slammed on it's brakes—with something that will force me to stick to the outside of the refrigerator door instead of opening it!
