Two Toblerone Chocolate Bars Need Homes

First, a reminder about the Toblerone Giveaway. Enter to win chocolate by correctly guessing the name of this politically neutral country which I attempted to use as a joking symbol of my staying out of Californian politics this year. Of course, I've recently declared my definitive stance as a flip-flopper, but I'm still giving away the amazingly yummy Swiss chocolate bar. I know it's hard, but go ahead, take a guess. You know you want to win this exquisite chocolate crafted in Switzerland.

I shall be holding a drawing from all the correct answers on November 4th as the polls close here in California.

Second, Alison (whose blog is well worth a read) voiced a fondness for limericks, SO in her honor I announce the
Win a Toblerone Limerick Contest!
Yes, that's right! A second Toblerone will be awarded to the writer of the best limerick!


(Just to give you courage, I'll go first.)

There once was a blogger named Jami
whose contest was silly and lame-y!
November 4th it ended
because it felt splendid
to be done with smeary, dumb blame-y.

P.S. Keep it clean.
PPS. Enough with the eye-rolling. Lame-y, Blame-y and Jami DO TOO ryhme.

Because I am a sucker for contests.

When I was in labor with my first, in between killer back-labor contractions, I was licking the Publisher's Clearing House Sweepstakes stickers so that we could win TEN THOUSAND DOLLARS!!!! It was so cool when they showed up on my doorstep with that HUGE check and the cameras and the fruit basket right after E-Baby and I got home from the hospital. Really made the choice to interrupt the sacred process of birth seem wise.

Anyhow...ain't no way, no how, I'm going to get the most answers right in Annette Lyon's Quiz. So I'm going for the "link to the quiz and get entered into a drawing" contest. Of course, if you all link to her quiz the hundreds of extra people entering the contest seem like they might reduce my chances of winning. Oh no! I know the secret. (Actually, I only overheard it, but that's close enough.) I am sending winning vibes out into the universe and the universe is about to dump the motherload in my lap.

So thanks, Universe!
And thanks, Annette!
