Our First Winner!

by JM

confetti.jpgYay! That’s right; we have our first winner of a very delicious block of DARK chocolate (and a couple of extra goodies thrown in just because). Everyone give your hearty congratulations to:

Sandra!

Sandra, who writes for Parenting Under the Stars here on the 451 network, won with her comment on Love Me to Love You?:

“I wouldn’t say I was at my highest point in self confidence when I married either. Sometimes you can grow together and make each other stronger though. I think the fact that you were careful with each other’s feelings is wonderful.

Just because someone appears to have higher self esteem or confidence doesn’t mean it’s ok to be highly critical or insulting either. Anyway I think being sensitive to others is a good quality and I would take that over some overly confident cocky insulter any day.�

If you would like to win your own lovely block of chocolate, don’t worry! There are still two blocks of milk chocolate and one block of dark chocolate waiting to be grabbed up by the person who lands on the right number comment.

Also remember that there is a special Australian prize pack waiting to go out to the person who makes the 100th comment. That won’t happen, though, unless we reach 100 comments by June 5th!

So keep stopping by and speaking your mind for your chance to win!

    Yipee! Thanks so much. Chocolate is one of my big vices and I have so few of them left.

    Chocolates… yummy! I’m a milk chocolate lover, but not the ones with nuts inside. I’m fussy in that sense, I guess. Anyway, thuis week’s Love Q is up if you want to join in again. :)

    Thank you for the invitation. :)

    I’m a bit fussy when it comes to what is in my chocolate. I don’t much care for fruit or alcohol ones.
