200th post + a giveaway!

In celebration of my 200th post on this blog, I thought I would have a little giveaway!

First, though, let's take a little trip down memory lane. Here are a few of my favorite posts:
* My Magical Cup of Tea
* Mmmmm, Bunny Soup
* Beside the Seaside
* DIY Banner
* My house Smells Like... CHOCOLATE!
* Parmesan Zucchini Crisps
* Proof I'm NOT as Big as An Elephant!
* Life After 40 Weeks
* Balloons!
* Meet Weebu!
* Alternative to Plastic Storage Containers
* Uh-oh... Kids are a Little TOO Quiet
* Mermaids, Pirates, and Lobsters- OH MY!
* Baking with Toddlers
(My apologies if some of those earlier ones look wonky. When I switched format a while back, it messed up some of the posts, and I just never got around to going back and editing all of them.)

And now on to the giveaway- a Flaxseed Therapy Pack from my Etsy shop!

Winner will receive their choice of either a Headache Helper, an Oopsie Daisy, or a set of 2 small Owie Bags. You can even chose the print! Flaxseed therapy packs can be used either hot or cold, and come in handy for all your first-aid and comforting needs. (Read more about them here)

How to enter: Just leave a comment to this post, and let me know which type of therapy pack you would chose, and what you see yourself using it for. Be sure to leave your email address so I can contact you! Bonus entries for following me on Twitter, tweeting this giveaway, and for following this blog (widget found on sidebar). Please leave a separate comment for each extra entry (maximum of 4 entries total).

Winner will be chosen on Monday, March 9th at approximately 6pm EST, via drawing a number at random.org.

And lastly, ((HUGS)) and brightest blessings to all my readers. Thanks for letting me ramble in these last 200 posts. :)

LOL Today is the day of entering giveaways for me. ;o) I just made a post about entering one at Zen Cupcake.

Anyway...I'm entering because I'd love a headache helper. I've been plagued by migraines, so I'm sure this will help me out immensely!

Hey! I have enjoyed tweeting with you, and coveting your goodies. I would love for you to pick my prize if I get drawn! whatever your favorite is! You have some lovely things! Thank you.

I'm all about the owie bags! And why? Because with LP mere weeks (if not days!) from mobile, I foresee a LOT of bumps, bruises and general owies in our future! Of course, this is completely independent of my browsing your shop last night and debating whether or not to splurge on owie bags when we do the Great Cape Caper Mark I. :hehe

I would love the headache helper, i get tons of headaches with certain changes in my life and well its better to use something all natural right. April your an awesome person! You are sooo creative.

I would love a headache helper because I get them from squinting too much when I make jewelry for my Etsy shop. A nice warm flax seed bag on my forehead and a soft dog to pet should do the trick! (I already have the dog, by the way.)

I would love a Oopsie Daisy in the cocoa dots pattern. I would give this to my friend who has arthritis in her hands.

I would love those owie bags-I have some kids that never stop moving and are constantly getting owies, but don't like ice. And I think we are looking at the tonsils coming out for the youngest-he might enjoy an owie bag during recovery.

Thanks-colleen

I follow you on twitter too!:)

Congrats on 200 posts!

I would love to win a headache helper. It would be fantastic on arthritic joints (my knee!), and welcome relief for cramps.
All this in addition to helping tame the pain of the hormonal migraines!

hugs,

I'd go for the headache pack, because I suffer from headaches. Ughh. Hate them. Although today, I'd be using it on my back, which has hurt since the 28th.

Rebecca F said...

I totally follow you on twitter, btw. :)

Rebecca F said...

oh, and retweeting you too!

Flaxseed Headache Helper Owie is my choice. The size, shape and simplicity is what I like. They are cooling and soothing over the eyes when lying in meditation.

I love them all. They are so cute. I would definitely use it for backaches and for when I go into labor, which actually could be anyday now....

Carrie said...

Any of the owie bags would be helpful in my house. From my headaches to my toddlers bumps and scrapes, we can ALL use one :)
