$50 Amazon Gift Card Winner!

I totally lied to you guys and I must apologize. I told you the giveaway winner would be announced on Saturday, buuuut I was lost in the forest camping, and without access to a computer and couldn’t tell you who won! I just got in the door and realized this mistake when closing the giveaway down. Silly me. I do these sorts of things way more than I’d like to admit. I’m so sorry!

Anyway, thanks again for entering, everyone! The winner is Heidi from Bits of Sunshine for liking me on Facebook! Thanks for entering Heidi! Also, thanks again to everyone for liking me on Facebook, and following me on Twitter. It helps me reach out to more people like you :)

Also, thanks for letting me know your favorite smoothie flavours. My absolute favorite is still my banana bread green monster smoothie…

And my peanut butter and oat breakfast milkshake is a close second.

Golly, I love smoothies!

Some Spooky Sights!

Site’s? Sights? Whatev’s. I’ll be showing you a few cute and cool Halloween sights on a few site’s in this post. I’m right into the spirit this year. I’d say my best costume to date was my Mad Hatter costume. Hello there! What are you being this year??

I LOVE Halloween. I live on the 9th floor of an out-of-the-way apartment and I still decorate the place to the max, pimp out my pumpkin, and buy candy just on the off-chance a cute baby Batman, baby Yoshi, or real baby hippo comes by. I know that if I were a baby hippo, this scene would blow my mind:

OR! I could bake some of the below tasty, super-creative, treats for the hippos! Like these pumpkin whoopie pies.

Crazy cool Witches Legs.

Super Spooky Oreo Bats.

Or how about these freaking awesome Graveyard Brownies??

Whatever happens in the kitchen between now and that magical day that is October 31st, I will be ready to go with treats to last until Christmas. Thank you food bloggers! For being awesome, and sharing your strange and wonderful Halloween treats!

Cookbook Giveaway Winner!

I enter giveaways a lot. Every morning I open my 88 bookmarked cooking/baking blogs (don’t judge!), check for something new and yummy to cook or bake, and if they have a giveaway I enter! Always. Annnnnnd I’ve never won! It doesn’t discourage me though. It takes 10 seconds to leave a comment, like someone on Facebook, or follow them on Twitter.

I like having my own giveaways, because it’s a way for me to reach new readers, but also because I think it’s a fun way to connect with people from all over Canada and the US…and all over the world really. My favorite giveaways are the ones that bloggers have made themselves. For example, this cookbook. I genuinely like this book, bought it for one of you, and had a giveaway for it. I believed in it and wanted to share with you!

And the winner is…..Alicia from Treble Tart for liking me on Facebook!

Thanks again for entering everyone! I hope one of you wins the next giveaway.
