Hi All! I can’t believe it’s already here!! I meant to have this post all written and ready to go right away. You know, to be at the top of the HUGE Rocks in My Dryer giveaway list. Instead, as usual, I’m behind and scrambling to catch up.
Ah, these things happen.
Mainly it was the snow.
It happened here at our house.
In western Washington.
Washington, where we usually have more rain than snow. Tim says we do things proper here and keep our snow on the mountains, where it belongs.
As promised, my giveaway is centered around two of my favorite things:
Chocolate
Coffee
Leave a comment on whether you prefer milk or dark chocolate. The giveaway ends on Saturday, February 2nd at midnight (Pacific time). A winner will be drawn randomly on Sunday, February 3rd. US residents only.
Prizes:
$10 Starbucks gift card
Chocolate (in some shape of form – it’ll be a surprise)
Kathy
Dark chocolate, Please.
Great fun in the snow!! Love you kids, Aunt Kate
I love dark chocolate. Thanks for offering the giveaway!
I’ve never been the first comment on anything! I’d pick dark chocolate and a skinny cinnamon dolce latte….yum…
Milk chocolate is definitely my fav. Thanks for a splendid giveaway!
Thanks for the giveaway, how fun!!!!

I like milk chocolate

Coffee and Chocolate? Sign me up!!!
If I had to choose between Dark and Milk, It would be milk. Although White is my favorite….
Oh yay – I am usually a milk chocolate kinda girl, but I’ve been getting into the dark lately! I would love to win so I can get the new Starbucks travel mug that I have my eye on!
Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm… Enter moi, please!!!
You must live where I live!!! We too, woke up to snow!!! It didn’t stop until around 9AMish here!!! How exciting! Someone out in this blog land lives close by!
I prefer Nutella, but if I can’t get that, I prefer milk chocolate. Dove’s, by preference.
How delish! My favorite is most definitely dark chocolate. I have family in Seattle and they’ve gotten more snow than us this year!

I enjoy treating myself to a cup of coffee at Starbucks
while my kids are at Awana’s plus add chocolate
to that who wouldn’t.
Great dual.
thanks
Talk about a great response for your treats! I am with Tim on this one, Nutella or bust! If no nutella, I would prefer milk chocolate.
Side note, for those of us who have started or are going to start a better eating plan, Starbucks is now offering sugar free chocolate. You can have your chocolate and coffee together with less calories.
Count me in. Thanks!
count me in please
Mmmm….milk chocolate, no doubt! Great giveaway, thanks!
love milk chocolate
Hi Julee and Kathy!
That would be dark chocolate…at least 70%. I already have a card so if you pick me, randomly of course, it can be charged over the computer and so easy! If you just add on a dollar I can get my sugar free chocolate at Starbuck’s as well like Julee said and it would be SO easy!
You’re taking such great pictures with your new camera, how fun. Next time we get together I’d love to see maybe a hundred pictures or so. I don’t think I can do the thousands unless you take me to Hawaii for a weekend, but a hundred would be nice.
It snowed here in Oregon too!!
Milk chocolate!!
Dark, dark chocolate!
Thanks for a chance to win! : )
milk chocolate!! YUM!
Count me in please.

Stop by my place to win a bath set & candles or one of two copies of a book I’m giving away.
