Oh, homemade truffles? I bow to the Empress! :)
ReplyDeleteOooh, I'm the first! Does that in or de crease my chances of winning? Maybe I'll comment again later on, just to up the odds
ReplyDeleteDAMN! I wasn't the first, after all!
ReplyDelete*giggle*
I would have your baby if I could. Pick me!
ReplyDeleteUh-oh, early comments never seem to win, but I'll give it a try anyway. I just want that picture! Best wishes for another great year ahead~
ReplyDeleteTHE Homemade Truffles?
ReplyDeleteIf I leave a bribe with this comment, does it increase my chances of winning?
You are awesome, and I'm glad you had a fun week.
(that wasn't the bribe...just the truth!)
Dude, I hope I win, and I hope the truffles aren't too big of a dairy-free cheat ;) So happy I stumbled onto your corner of the Internet during your first year!
ReplyDeleteYou're not letting Baby E pick the winner again are you? He tends to favor certain numbers over and over again...love ya Baby E!
ReplyDeleteAnd you know I'd be willing to PAY for those truffles...just sayin.
well, i doubt you're going to send a package to australia... but i wanna join in anyway. don't want to miss the end of your week of your first year celebrations. hahaha. make that the last day of the first week of your second year. or something like that. happy blogoversary!
ReplyDeleteas if those truffles were not enough (they are incredible people!) a signed pic of baby e...woot woot! happy monday and happy blogoversary
ReplyDeleteYou're the best! I hope you have a fabulous week!
ReplyDeleteHow did I miss this extravaganza?! Happy Blogaversary, momma :)
ReplyDeleteDid someone say TRUFFLES? OMG! I love them...big old chocolate things.
ReplyDeleteOn a more serious note, I really enjoyed this week..you just make me feel good...what can I say?
What a terrific way to wrap up the week! I'm praying hard for this, because I could use a happy present from a generous lady right about now.
ReplyDeleteSuch a fun week. And boy do I need some truffles and coffee!
ReplyDeleteI'll take anything from you, Miss Fabulous!
ReplyDeleteTruffles. Truffles. MMMMMMM. Truffles.
ReplyDeleteSince my comment is not even close to Baby E.'s age, I know I'll lose. It's been a good ride. Have a wonderful 2nd year.
Ooooh... truffles. And I would totally stick the pic of Baby E up in my cube at work.
ReplyDeleteThank YOU
ReplyDeleteYou were there when I first began my blog, welcoming me.
You tweeted out that I was new.
I was welcomed into a group of women I never knew existed.
Thank you!
Just wishing you another well earned CONGRATULATIONS...
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to see what the 2nd year brings from this amazing space. :)
I just hurried through my washcloth "shower" so that I could catch up on the people I've been missing. Congratulations on your first year!
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful ride, my friend....thanks for taking us all along!
ReplyDeleteAnd I'm hoping Green Skirt gal makes a comeback next year...
I am sorry to see the green skirted lady to go, but if it means I might seem homemade truffles in my mailbox? Well, good riddance!
ReplyDeleteI have enjoyed the past week here! Hope you have a good Monday!
ReplyDeletebest milked-blogaversary celebrations ever!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations Miss Empress on a truly fine accomplishment. Did you know that 62% of blogs fail in the first year? (That may or may not be true. Did you know that 87% of of statistics are just made up ;-)
ReplyDeleteOne person will be oh-so-lucky!
Enjoy the day!
Erin
I want the Baby E photo!! Woo hoo!
ReplyDeletelove you so much. and by 'so much' i mean 'a totally nbrmal, non-stalker amount.'
ReplyDeleteIf you send me truffles, I will send you one of my kids (not the puking one).
ReplyDeleteI'm really going to miss that green skirt swingin' gal!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on a wonderful year!!!!!
Awww, you're just so sweet! I'd cut a bitch for any one of those prizes. And I don't even know what that means!
ReplyDeleteOoo, ooo, pick me, pick me!
ReplyDeleteya know, you could send some trufffles my way even if i don't win.
ReplyDeletei'm the one standing quietly in the back... thinking, hoping, holding my breath - Oh I hope they choose me, please choose me!
ReplyDeletePick me...pick me ;)
ReplyDeleteI hope my comment's a lucky one too...because you know I could always use some roasted coffee from your hometown. No, truly.
ReplyDeleteWow, the week went fast! Oh goodbye, lady in the green skirt.
So nice to celebrate your week long blogoversary with you, dear Empress. So happy to celebrate and know YOU. :-))
I LOVE that pictuer! Ha! I also love that you celebrated your blogoversary all week. What a great idea! I need to do something nice for my readers. Thank you for inspiring me!
ReplyDelete*picture
ReplyDeleteOh, and I would LOVE to receive any or all of the things you mentioned. Fun!
If I could send you all homemade truffles I would. But the P.O. kills me with their shipping rates.
ReplyDeleteAnd those truffles can't go in flat boxes.
GOOD LUCK!
I, personally, can't wait to see how Baby E will determine the winner.
That's always the highlight for me with the giveaways.
He cracks me up. And not just cuz he's my kid...well, maybe...
do truffles come in flavors?
ReplyDeletePick me! It's my birthday month!
ReplyDeleteYum...truffles.
ReplyDeleteTalk about the best giveaway. I love that it's so personal :)
I'd like the prize, please, if only to complement the green polyester pantsuit I am wearing now in homage to your anniversary week.
ReplyDeleteFelicitations, by the way - thanks for the laughs!
Truffles?? Coffee?? Signed, original piece of artwork, from Baby E?? Oh, how wonderful!!!
ReplyDeleteAll of my favorite things...all in one post. How do you do it??! :)
Happy, Happy Blogoversary- you have made the world a better place with your wit, kindness and overall awesomeness.
Thank you!
XOXO
Is it legal to send truffles over the border? Will Baby E be carrying a passport?
ReplyDeleteI just want to know how many cans of hairspray the lady in the green skirt had to use to get her hair to stay in that very attractive beehive.
ReplyDeletei want the coffee, the truffles, I want it all! I just don't want to look like the lady in the green skirt.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on your blogoversary! And if you need any more pictures to give away, I can have my Princess E send you a few she has painted. ;)
ReplyDeleteMmmmm, truffles. Good luck to all (though I'm definitely crossing fingers and toes for this one).
ReplyDeleteI'm sad to see your blogoversary come to an end. And also that I won't see lady in green skirt any longer. *sniff*
Well, I'm late but I read every post for everyday. I think I can let go of the need to hire an expensive friend.
ReplyDeleteYour posts have inspired me, made me take a closer look at who I am, who I wish I was and what I'm gonna go do now.
And, I loved reading them all! Happy Blogoversary!
Truffles...yum.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations again on your blogoversary! And thank you for welcoming me so warmly when stepped into this bloggy world.

ReplyDeleteWell, I was here every single day waiting for the cake to be served, so truffles would be a very nice substitute!
ReplyDeleteNow if you could please the photo of me in my lovely green suit off of your lovely blog, I would be so happy.
You have outdone yourself, Celine! What an amazing giveaway! Especially the Baby E. artwork.
ReplyDeleteAnd Baby E? Don't torment yourself. I know you promised that I would win this - and in my heart, I have.
Choose the winner justly (gulp), tis all I ask.
If I win? Does the dancing lady in the green suit come in person to deliver your truffles to my door?
ReplyDeleteThat would be almost better then Ed McMahon delivering the giant million dollar check
(I said *almost*... I LOVE you, but I ain't crazy.)
Good bye Green Skirt..Looking forward to another great year following you and Baby E, Empress.
ReplyDeleteI think we all need a picture of YOU shaking it in that green skirt!
ReplyDeleteYou know how much I want those truffles and the autographed picture by Baby E. IWANTTHEM. STAT.
ReplyDelete(Happy Blogiversary week, Empress, it's been a doozy)
Me me me me!
ReplyDeleteCan it be me??
Cause you know...me and chocolate. We're buds. Really!
And happy happy happy happy blogoversary! So happy you and your blog are here!
Truffles <3 OMG, freaking Happy Happy HAPPY Blogoversary!
ReplyDeleteI'm going to miss the green skirt.
ReplyDeleteHooray for YOU and your fabulousness and your green skirt and your give-aways! Yes. Hooray for YOU!! XO
ReplyDeleteWhat a year! I would be honored to win any of the prizes, but will admit to being disappointed that the green skirt is not one of them. With St. Patrick's Day and Easter coming up, I could really have rocked it if I won.
ReplyDeleteWow it was one busy week of partying, you must be so tired :) Oh truffles, yum!!!
ReplyDeleteOh I will miss the green skirt but I would totally trade it for truffles. Why don't you just have an anniversary year? This week with you was fun! Although next week will be too, and the week after that, and the week after that. XOXO
ReplyDeleteAw. I can always attempt it one more time, right?
ReplyDeleteThis is what I get for being under a rock. I've missed all the fun!
ReplyDeleteWhaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.
I will totally add my google adsense dollars into the pot. The coat of postage might be more but it will be worth. Happy Blogoversary!
ReplyDeleteDid I miss this? Do you come present the gifts in person?
ReplyDeleteHappy Blogoversary to one of my favorite bloggers!
ReplyDeleteHappy happy blogoversary!
ReplyDeleteGlad you had a wonderful week celebrating! :-)
