Moving in May and a GIVEAWAY!!

How is your Tuesday going?

Is anyone else terrified by the fact that this Saturday is the first day of May? Do you know what that means? I need to start cleaning our apartment and packing everything up to move to a new place. I am kind of excited, because the home we chose has the nicest kitchen out of the two places. There is even room for a table or some bar furniture, if we want! I would love to have some seating right in the kitchen so that I can enjoy a nice breakfast and feel civilized. I currently eat right in front of Fred's (my chinchilla) cage. At least he is adorable!

What would be especially nice would be a pub set, such as this one:

Home Styles Contour Black Pub Set - 5982-358
You can find this set, as well as lots of other furniture at Allbarstools.com. It is part of CSN stores, which offers so many different products, from baking sets, to plates, to couches, to anything you could ever want in your home!
My First Giveaway: The generous people at Allbarstools.com and csn stores have offered one of my readers to win a pretty awesome prize from their stores. I am going to give you the option of two equally awesome presents.
Prize behind door number 1:

Frieling Nonstick 9" Handle-It  Glass Bottom Springform Pan - 3850
I would be pretty jealous of whoever got to take this home! What would you make with it?
Prize behind door number 2:
Chef's Choice International WafflePro Taste / Texture Select Traditional "Five-of-Hearts" - 8300000
Really cute waffles, right?
To enter: Leave one comment that answers the following question: If you could be a hybrid of two animals, what would those two animals be? Go ahead, play along. Also, indicate which prize you would want to win. Please remember to leave an email, or else you won't win anything!
For one extra entry: Become a follower of this blog, and leave a comment telling me that you did.
I will be picking a winner using Random.org on Monday morning, May 3rd. So, you have until 10:00pm on Sunday to enter. Please eneter my first give-away!
Thanks!

  4. Interesting question! When I was young I always like cheetahs so I'd say cheetah and elephant as I'd like to be fast and strong with good memory as mine sucks sometimes :-)

    I'd like to win the waffle maker!

  5. Been a follower for awhile now :-) Always look forward to the art at the start of your posts.

  6. Hmmm...interesting question. I would be a cross between a dog and squirrel. Mainly just because it would give my own dog a huge complex.

    I would like to win the pan!

  8. Good luck with your move! You better get crackin with the packing. :) I love the pub set. Sooo cute.

    Great giveaway! I would pick the really cool waffle maker.
    My hybrid animal would be a tabby cat and a bluebird. Do birds count?

  9. I'm not going to overthink this one. Some days I feel like a a gnat with ADD, but also a cross between a prideful lion (Leo, here) and a sloth. Not sure what that would look like...

    Fun for new furniture! I have a dining room table (in an actual dining room) only because it came with the house. I usually eat all my meals in the living room (when I'm not at work at my desk). It's cozy! The living room, not the desk...

    I would take the pan, and you're already on my blogroll!

  10. Haha, that's a fun question. Okay, I'll be a dog, and a unicorn (I know it's not real, but let's pretend, okay?)

    First of all, a dog because the dog's life is SWEET. I mean, people feed you, walk you, treat you like a family member, yet expect nothing of you except to wag your tail occasionally. Man, how easy a life is that?
    And a unicorn, because then I'll be pretty. And shiny. And glamorous. And I can fly, too.

    OMG. Would LOVE the waffle-maker!

  11. a chameleon and and a black panther, so I could blend at any time of the day, and hunt things.

  12. Hmmm this is hard.
    I think I would want to fly but not sure I would be a bird.
    I would want to be something furry and cuddly too so maybe some sort of flying squirrel mixed with something bigger and less delicate.
    Hmmmm. I will have to get back to you on this one
    haha! :)
    night!

  13. Where is your "followers" thingy I cant find it for some reason.
    I am not surprised since I am, in general, technologically challenged :)
    Let me know

  14. Hum....I would say a bunny and a puppy. I mean, I'd be so cute, I could rule the world!

  15. Ohhhh I think I would want to be a combo of a horse and a tiger fast and smart!

    ReplyDelete

  18. That waffle maker has my name all over it!! Yay for giveaways!

    I would be a mix between a dolphin (I love swimming) and a dog (I love sleeping) haha.

  19. Hi Astrid! What a cool giveaway! Love it!

    I think I would be a hybrid of a leopard and a panda bear. I like leopards because of their speed and beauty. And I like pandas because I just want to give them a hug. HAHAHA!

    I would love to win the springform pan and make a cheesecake! Thanks Lady!

  20. Hey again,

    I would be a bee and a sloth. Then I could be buzzed and lazy. LOL

    If I were to randomly win, I would choose the springform pan. Or the wafflemaker. Either one is nice...

    Cheers...Eric
