CCV in a Box!
Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens… These are a few of my favorite things.
It’s the “CCV in a Box” Giveaway!
What does this entail? It entails everything you see below (and none of the creepiness you see above!). I’ve been blessed with so much in life, and I want to share it with you. (If I were Paris Hilton, I’d share with ALL of you, but sadly—or maybe not so sadly!—I am not Paris Hilton.)
In principle, the box should include a butternut squash, lotsa kale, and a stalk of broccoli… but these were left out, for obvious reasons 
. Running shoes, Adobe Photoshop, and an immersion blender should also be part of the loot—you know, for those blended grains. But they’re not included either. (Please refer to above Paris-Hilton comment.)
What is in the box, and why?
1. My favorite bars:
- A chocolate Jocalat bar (reviewed here)
- A chocolate brownie Z bar (reviewed here)
- A chocolate-walnut Nectar bar (reviewed here)
- A cinnamon-raisin Gnu bar (not chocolate?! Shocking, I know.)
- A Coconut Larabar
2. Artisana Cacao Bliss Butter (reviewed here)
3. Dark Chocolate Dreams PB&Co Peanut Butter (reviewed here)
4. Williams Farm Peach Salsa (My favorite “sauce” for salad. It’s also a main ingredient in my Somewhere over the Rainbow sandwich)
5. The best-tasting cinnamon (I am a Cinna-Monster and shake this stuff like there’s no tomorrow—Banana Spice Pudding, Butter(nut) Me Up Squash Fries, Snickerdoodle Oatmeal… you get the picture.)
6. Chopsticks (because I eat almost everything with chopsticks! I forgot them in the photo, but they’ll still be in the box.)
7. Plum green tea (to wash down second breakfast!)
8. My favorite Irish oats (for all those oatmeal recipes)
9. Agar Agar flakes, so that you can make Three-Ingredient Alfredo Sauce, Choco-licious Chocolate Pudding, or any other pudding flavor your mind can invent (Carrot Cake Pudding, anyone?)
10. An Africard (because even though they have nothing to do with food, Africards are a big part of my life)
Phew! I think that’s enough for one giveaway. Gotta save some stuff for the next giveaway. Plus, I’m not made of money.
.
Oh wait, yes I am made of $$$$—literally.
I’m still working on the rules, so please check my next post to find out how to enter the giveaway!!
Question of the Day: What would be the contents of YOU-in-a-Box?

NAOmni
That is one MEGA FANTASTIC giveaway!! I think I would love every single one of those items. This is so incredibly generous of you, Katie!! (But shouldn’t it be CCK in a box, now that you’ve moved to this new blog–?)
I love what you included in your CCV in a box giveaway! So much chocolate! *drool* My box would include… every Larabar flavor of the rainbow, a random selection of bars (Clif, luna, clif kid, KIND, odwalla, thinkfruit, pure bars etc.) Peanut Butter Puffins, squeezable packets of pb, like barney butter, peach sauce, carob chips, some of my favorite granola, a cute bowl and mug, maybe some lip balms or other cutesy small things, and the Twilight DVD. ;D
Love everything in the box!
Me in a box would include: PB, almond butter, Tazo tea, Z Bars, PB Puffins, granola, banana muffins, pumpkin butter, Post-It notes, highlighters, the Wicked CD, and the movie Center Stage.
Btw CCV, sorry for my lack off commenting recently – I was working my a$$ off on a presentation … now that’s outta the way, I’M BACKKKKK …..
OMG …. OMG … DIS IS CHRISTMAS!!!! *throw confetti in the air* WOOOoooo … this is everything I ever wanted (well, there’re more but this is AWESOME enough). Btw, that pic of you in a box -> “THAT’S HOT”
[Sorry, it is mandatory for me to throw that quote in] 
Oh my good, peach salsa?!!! Is that better than those generic brand tomato salsa – I don’t like those ones :/ BUT OH MY GOD … i tried some pumpkin relish on my sandwich the other day >> it was heavenly …. I just need to get the recipe the nxt time I go there (its labelled vegan too!)…. it is soooo good!
Ahhh I am so excited for this giveaway, I have never tried a lot of that stuff and I have always wanted to!!
My box would contain crunchy peanut butter, pistachio and lemon larabars, puffins cereal & some type of TJ’S trail mix!!
Great idea!! I love giveaways like this–they’re so much more personal:)
I would have to include some protein powder packets for my smoothie obsession, a jar of PB (undecided on variety…), and a box of pomegranate tea.
I’d have all of my favourite comfort foods, my knitting needles, phone, laptop, MP3 player (I think the last 3 are a given for nearly everyone), and my coin-belt (shimmy shimmy). I forgot to add a coconut Larabar too, those are delicious!
Can’t wait to hear the rules.
I think “Kateypooh” in a box would be black olives, veggie sushi (I would have to overnight the box), trader joe’s low carb whole wheat tortillas, apple butter, and curry powder. Oh and a can opener for the black olives.
If one could wrap a big box around whole foods, my gym, and Barnes and Noble and then tie a big pink ribbon around the whole thing that would be Emily in a box.
Can’t wait to see what’s up your sleeve Katie!
With Love,
Emily
This looks really exciting. Those all look like amazing products. ((Especially the coconut Larabar–my favorite!)) Plus all that chocolate. Oh my mouth is absolutely watering.
awesome giveaway. You’ve really outdone yourself! Can’t wait to hear the details
Wow, that is a great prize
You’re so generous!!
My box would contain: grade B maple syrup, a packet of Justin’s maple almond butter, a coconut cream pie Lara Bar, dark chocolate PB, salt and vinegar chips, a SIGG bottle, and a can of Zevia
Oh wow what a great idea for a swap! Can’t wait to find out how to enter, I definitely will do!
Just found your blog through CNC… and I love it! Oh and I love giveaways, haha. Hope I win!
This is the best giveaway ever! I think the only thing that would beat it out would be the actual CCV in a box! Maybe you should consider getting a CCV doll patented. Or like one of those chocolate bunnies, only scratch the bunny and make it a milk chocolate Katie. It’d be perfect, just in time for easter!
Me in a box: peanut butter, bananas (if possible), coffee beans, oats, a box of cereal, granola bars, and small packs of dried fruit and nuts. If it were possible to include veggies there would be lots of those in there too.
I’m excited about the new giveaway!
That is such a gorgeous picture of you! How do you do it? How do you always look beautiful? Do you NEVER have a bad hair day? I’m typing this wearing my cupcake pajamas, messy hair up in a pony tail, zombie face after working all day. I’m jealous!
Nice giveaway!
I’d be red grapefruit, chai, super dark chocolate, a pair of knitting needles and yarn, blue corn chips and mango salsa.
Thanks!
wow, this is an insanely awesome giveaway!
