Followers & Give-Aways

Just wanted to thank you all for participating in my first give-away. I was quite overwhelmed by how many of you entered. I'd been toying with the idea of a give-away for a while but never really thought about what to give...
At first I thought I'd offer you a piece of my birthday cake. But I'm not very pleased with how it turned out. I think I must have cranked the heat up under my desk a little too much. Reminds me of my very first RL cake making adventure. I was so proud of myself that within minutes of taking the cake pans out of the oven, I started frosting it!

Then I thought about giving you a strawberry and chocolate cake.
But I wasn't any happier about that one. Those strawberry centers look a little too pink for my liking!

Then I got to thinking about chocolates. Everybody likes them.....especially Belgium chocolates! And what better way to display them then in a shiny silver candy dish.


Let's see: there white chocolate & dark, ones with cherries and coffee beans and walnuts on top; hard centers and soft ....I guess with fimo they're all hard centers but we'll pretend.

I picked up a tip from Christel Jensen about the simplest way to make a random selection. I used Random.org to pick a name for me. All your names went into 2 piles: one with blogs and one without. Victoria and Brujita would you both please email me your mailing addresses.

Thanks again! We'll have to did this again real soon.
