a Giveaway to show my thanks

by Chocolate-Covered Katie on September 8, 2009

Thank you all so so much for the birthday wishes.  I really felt like a princess, getting all those nice comments (the Facebook comments too).   If I could, I’d buy everyone something to show y’all how much you mean to me.  But since I’m not rich enough for this, I’ll at least offer up a gift to one of you to show how appreciative I am that you read my blog.

So…

How about 5 jars of Chocolate-Coconut Love (or any flavors the winner chooses)?

Leave a comment—on my Banana Butter post—telling me your favorite flavor of nut butter (or dream flavor).

Remember:

Do NOT leave your answer on this post; leave it on the post entitled “Better than Peanut Butter” and I’ll enter you just like that.  No having to link back or make a recipe this time :) .

Question of the Day:

What makes you feel like a princess?

Wee, I’m the first :D
My bf makes me feel lik a princess. He really takes care of me and pampers me, tells me I’m beautiful all the time. I know it sounds kinda corny, but he does that and it’s really sweet

Pedicures and fancy dresses make me feel like a princess :) Also, my hubby does a great job of treating me like royalty!

I don’t think that yummy food would make it all the way to Saudi so I won’t enter the giveaway but I will answer your question.

What makes me feel like a QUEEN (I’m a grown woman, no princess here!) is how much my sweet husband dotes on me. He makes me the center of his world and never stops letting me know in big ways and in small ways that I am the most important thing in his life.

Whether it is getting up in the middle of the night without a word of complaint to get me a glass of water or filling the house with dozens and dozens of love letters, I always know that I am special to him.

*Swoon*

Excuse me, I have to go give someone a kiss now!

Wow! You got so many presents, lucky girl. I think I love opening presents way more than the actual gift. My birthday is coming up in a month and 4 days, hopefully I`ll have gifts to open and not just cards.

To answer your question: I really like taking a hot bath and pretend I´m at a very fancy spa (I have some bliss products to bring a little NY to Germany LOL).

You are one very lucky lady!

I feel like a princess whenever I get the chance to dress up for an elegant formal dinner. I am a tomboy every other day, but when I wear formal dresses and have my hair done it makes me feel a bit more special.

Oh, and when I went to Walt Disney World I was treated like a princess by everyone there – Donald Duck even kissed me! Mickey kissed me too… *big grin* It was like being a princess for a week.

Wow, that’s a great assemblage of presents ~ I hope you really enjoyed your day and although it’s a little late (I was so confused by when your actual birthday was!) I couldn’t comment without wishing you happy birthday in hindsight.

Nothing really makes me feel like a princess…I’m just not a girly girl in the least and princesses always seem so elegant and delicate, but running (racing in particular) and lifting weights make me feel like an amazon ; ) Yeah, a 5ft 3 amazon lol.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY KATIE :)
I hope it’s been fantastic for you, if anyone deserves to feel like a princess it’s you – you’re the sweetest, kindest person ever!
I feel like a princess whenever I’m getting all dressed up – with or without somewhere to go!
Again, happy birthday. Hope you’ve had an amazing time and you got exactly what you wanted, present-wise ;)

Thank YOU, Katie! I’m glad you had a great birthday. I feel like a princess when I get a massage, which is rarely, but really, the drive over, the actual massage, and all day afterward is heavenly.

glad you had a good bday :) i haven’t felt like anything close to a princess lately to be honest. but i remember a time when just hanging out with my best girlfriends felt like the world was our oyster. those memories will always be cherished. off to enter the contest!

Ah man, how are we not FB friends? I think we need to rectify that situation…somehow I don’t think Chocolate Covered Katie would yield many results in the search box.
Anyway, hope you had a fantastic birthday:)

I feel like a princess on the rare occasion I do yoga. Or when I eat really delicious ice cream, from a cone!

I’m so off schedule. Happy Belated! Sounds like you had a great day.
Pedicures are enough to lavish any gal, but when the hubby brings home wild flowers, freshly picked, then I feel like a princess!

Happy Happy Day!!! I think I wished you Happy Birthday in a previous post, but you deserve a happy day EVERY day!!!
I feel like a princess when I feel loved :-) Also, when I wake up and feel amazing about my body and my potential in this world.
When I am in a play, movie, photo shoot — basically any time I am blessed enough to book something — I REALLY feel like a princess. truly, i’m so so grateful.
And when my mommy and I fenagle our way into first class on planes sometimes…..that is pretty princess-y :-)
