Guess What!

My soul sings today!!  There is something back in stores that makes me one VERY happy girl.  First one to tell me exactly what it is gets a gift certificate to the store where I buy it.  (Yes, I have blogged about it before.)  We're talking a $5 certificate, nothing fancy.  Just enough for you to go out and purchase this item plus have a little change. I'll send something else too, but I'm not divulging what just yet as that would be a huge clue.  Happy figuring!

Another thing that makes my soul sing....I'm going to have a NIECE!!  I'm so thrilled I can hardly stand myself!  Lia is going to have a girl cousin to grow up with!!  I'll have a niece (that lives close vs clear across the country) to spoil.  My parents get to have TWO grand-daughters, and my brother gets to have a daughter.  Life feels really good right now. ;)

When you get some of your 'chocolate mint creamer" I'll have some in my decaf-espresso!
Thanks!

Ding Ding! We have a winner! Heather, send me your mailing address and I'll get that gift card from Wal-Mart right out to you. The deal is, you must purchase the International Delight Chocolate Mint Truffle with it. Something tells me sending a refrigerated item through regular US Post just wouldn't be a good idea. There'll be some change left over -feel free to spend that $2 on whatever you want - just don't go getting to crazy on us! ;) I'll be sending another little suprise along too. I hope you enjoy your creamer - and think about me when you do!

Just FYI - I drink mine in hot chocolate as I won't touch coffee with a ten foot pole. Also, I've heard it's good poured over icecream. Not that I would know anything about that first hand! ;)

Crystal - it's at my house now - bring your fancy smancy espresso maker over and I'll share! Or, I'll bring it to you - I'm nice like that. ;)

NO FAIR!! I'm just getting time to read some blog posts, but I knew what it was before I even finished the first sentence!
Wonderful about a girl niece! I was just telling Mother today that Brad and Lesha hadn't found out yet what they're having. I know that Lesha is floating on pink clouds!!

Dear Kristen,
Fabulous! I will have to try some in your honor. Excuse me as I wax prosaic...

[Ahem] As the soft wisps of steam curls up into the Nebraska air I will think fondly of Lia's curly head far-far away in Texas. As the cup warms my heands I will remember the warm and cozy time we had at your house on our visit South. And As I sink into the rich brown of my hot-chocolate I will invision the lovely brown eyes of my daughter's betrothed....

How's THAT for sap, honey? Hope it made you giggle into your cream enriched cocoa. That's the kinda girl I am.

Love,
Raimie

All American Family said...

Raimie - thanks so much. That DID make me laugh. Yep, gotta get our betrothed children together again! ;)

Darcie said...

I totally knew what you were talking about without even reading the entire post...just saw it on my dashboard. ;-) Only if we could share a cup together.

LOL! I knew what it was too before I finished reading the first line--I'm a bit late in reading the post tho, obviously!!
I'm going to have to try some of this, this year too--only in my hot chocolate--I prefer my coffee uncontaminated too! :)
