Drumroll Please. . . .

And we have a winner!

Thank you everyone who entered my contest! I enjoyed reading everyone's favorite flowers: hyacinths, tulips, sunflowers, hydrangeas, lilacs, amnesia roses, the siale Tonga, the Queen Elizabeth hybrid rose. What connoisseurs of flowers you all are Readers! I am impressed!

Congratulations to the winner of this giveaway: Anna J.! Her favorite flowers were tulips and hydrangeas.

Anna and I met a few years ago when we were both bridesmaids to our mutual friend, Jessica in her December 2005 wedding. We bonded over wearing the same dress, getting our nails and hair done, and being there to see our friend get married- a bridesmaid bond.

So, you can imagine my delight when the name I drew out of the hat was Anna's! I did a bit of "investigating" (aka stalking) and read her blog, Just a Smidge and a Pinch, and it is quite lovely (this is my favorite post).

Congratulations Anna!!!

PS- some of my favorite flowers are these:

Bourganvilla

Roses

Peonies

Water Lilies

Welcome to March Readers!

It's time for another giveaway! Like last time, I will be giving away something that smells wonderful, and does wonders for dry hands.

Recently I did a product review for Lollia's Handcreme to share how much I love this product- and today I am giving you an opportunity to win a Lollia Handcreme- that's how much I love it. I will be giving away a "petite-treat" container of the "In Love" scent from this line of handcremes.

In Love is the perfect scent for spring: it is light, fresh, sweet, and feminine. According to the Lollia website, it's key ingredients are "A modern interpretation of a sheer romantic floral with delicate infusions of Apple Blosson kissed sweetly by Jasmine, floating upon the breath of the truest Living Rose." I agree.

SO. . . how do you win this lovely petite treat? This giveaway is a bit different than the last giveaway, in that one of the requirements is to be a follower of this blog. If you already are a follower, great! If you are not, no worries- there is still time!

Once you are a follower, leave a comment for this post with your email address and one of your favorite flowers. It can be a flower you favor for its scent, appearance, meaning- whatever, as long as it is a flower that you like. This contest will close next Monday at 5PM Central Standard Time. Like last time, I will randomly pick a winner, contact them, and send this item in the mail.

Let's review, to enter this contest you will need to:

1) Follow this blog (thanks!)

2) Leave a comment with your email address and the name of your favorite flower

I look forward to hearing from you! Have a terrific Tuesday Everyone!
