100+ Followers and a Giveaway

I can’t believe I have 100 followers (okay, a couple more than that now. I was a little slow out of the gate with this post.) When I started talking about doing a blog it was one of those “it’ll give me something to do. No one will ever read it” things. I am so thrilled you all stop by and want to read what I have to say. Okay, maybe you don’t want to read what I have to say… but you look at my lamo pictures and are interested in what we are doing/creating/making/etc. I am thrilled!
So, I said giveaway right? I figured I’d better do something fun to celebrate this occassion. And what better way to celebrate than with chocolate, right?!?!

There’s a lot of posts out there using the new M&M flavors. Oh sure, there’s the original:

They are pretty darn delicious!

But then they came out with these:

I LOVE the peanut M&Ms. I can eat them by the handful. (But isn’t that how you are supposed to eat them? Someone please agree with me.) These M&Ms make me very:

Now you can even buy these for you almond lovers:

But when they made these little babies:

I was in:

But then I came across these:

They are peanut butter and strawberry jelly M&Ms. Don’t they sound delish?!?!
These are the ones that I am reading are hard to find. I found them at Freddys. Another amazing flavor.

But I think the mac daddy of them all might be these:

I LOVE these little things. These are kind of hard to find around here but I looked and looked and looked. (And then ate and ate and ate…)

So why all the pictures of these little morsels of deliciousness you ask? That’s the giveaway. One lucky winner will win two bags of the following flavors of M&Ms:

Plain
Peanut
Almond
Peanut Butter
Peanut Butter and Strawberry Jelly
Coconut
Pretzel

Yep, you heard me right. That’s 14 bags of goodness. How can you win you ask? Leave me a comment. It’s that simple. If you want to enter twice, leave me another comment with a link to a post of a fun activity or project to do with kids. How easy is that! (For you smarty pants out there, I don’t want a link to one of MY posts. It has to be from someone else.) =o)

The giveaway will end on Wednesday, July 28th.

Good luck!

  1. What a fun little giveaway! I’ve never seen(or heard about) the peanut butter&jelly variety. CONGRATS on 100+ followers! Isn’t blogging fun?!? 🙂

  2. YUM! I love M&Ms and so does my little monkey. I have to say that the plain old M&Ms are my all time fav, but we tried the pretzel ones the other day and they were A-MAZING!
    I even tried to use M&Ms as a bribe to use the potty, but found myself sneaking some here and there and the bag disappeared!

  3. Congrats on 100+ followers!! I didn’t even know M&Ms made some of those flavors, I’m off to the store soon and will have to see if they have them in my area!

  4. Here’s my extra post! I have recently started having my 3 year old tell me stories as I type them up for her. I have started making a book for her with the stories that she tells me. Now, mind you, she is only 3 and that imagination of hers is a little out there and her thoughts jump from one thing to another. Check out her story at:

  7. Love the pretzel ones!! Just added you to my blog feed and I love the site!

    I know this is a local thing that we do with the kids, but you might have one in your area. It’s cheap and gives us something to do when it’s either rainy or super hot.
