And the winner is...

Cathy K!!!

As commenter #7 on "Getting to know you Wednesday," you were chosen by my sweet Savannah to be our winner this week.

See, people, it pays to de-lurk!

Let me know how I can get your gift certificate to you!

And here are my answers to Wednesday's questions, in case anyone was wondering...
  1. Jif. Skippy is too sticky. I buy the two pack at Costco at least once a month. We eat a LOT of peanutbutter here. (And I simply cannot believe you don't have Jif in Canada, Corey. How do you function? I'll have to bring you some next time I visit...)
  2. Asia only likes creamy, so that's what I buy. But I secretly really like super chunk and I always eat it when I'm at my parent's house.
  3. Mayo. I've never really 'gotten' Miracle Whip.
  4. I love both walking and biking. But I think if I had to choose, I'd walk, for the same reason as Corey - I hate helmet head.
  5. Beach. Every time. Although there's nothing like the smell of the mountains on a warm summer morning.
  6. I'm one of the few people left in the world who actually prefers carpet, I think. It's warm. And you can play on it without getting bruises. And you don't have to sweep it. I know. I'm weird.
  7. Ice cream. Although whenever I eat sorbet I can't believe how flippin' good it is.
  8. I grew up with cats. Loved them. But Asia hates them. And as you all know, now I have a love affair with a dog. Who knew?
  9. Europe. Never been to Hawaii. But I've never really wanted to go either. I love the history and architecture and lifestyle in Europe so much I hope to live there for at least a year at some time in my life...
  10. Blow dry. Although the longer my hair gets, the more I'm realizing I can get away with letting it air dry... and that's cool, because I have TONS of hair and standing there with hot air flowing over my head for 20 minutes in the summer is a nightmare.

    Cath! You could totally buy TWO jars of peanut butter: one cream, one chunk. Then you wouldn't have to sneak to your parents' house every time you have a PB attack. I have them frequently. I love PB. And I have the ever-growing muffin top to prove it.

Happy Birthday Cathy! , originally uploaded by Pink Paper Peppermints . All of these sweet bloggy friends threw me a cyber-birthday party! How fun is that? Thank you, dear friends. I am touched. It's really just what I needed today. Sweet Tanya even made me a cake. If you want to follow the party around cyber-space, you can go to Melissa's blog to see everyone who is participating.

Getting to know you Wednesday

So it's been awhile. But I thought hearing from ya'll might cheer up my little snow encrusted Spokane self. So today, if I get at least 12 comments, I'll randomly pick one and send that lucky commenter any CD from Your Music . Whatever you want. So today, in light of mid-winter doldrums, I want you to answer the following three questions. To escape mid-winter doldrums, I like to: My favorite winter memory is: I know Spring is coming when: Okay, friends. Now it's your turn. Go to it.

The floodgates have opened.

So, I was doing pretty well managing my emotions. I kept telling people that I had processed a lot of my grieving over Tejan's departure back in January - when we were so close to saying goodbye... and so that must be why I wasn't feeling overly emotional about it this time around. I hadn't shed any tears. Hadn't choked up in that strange, overwhelming way where I feel like my whole head is filling up with fluid and my throat is so constricted I'm just sure I'm going to die. Nope. I was doing just fine. And then I went out to dinner with some girlfriends. And while I was a little socially inept because I'm a kind of overwhelmed and not really wanting to talk too much lately (perhaps in subconscious fear that I might touch on a nerve that would cause my aforementioned steely resolve to crumble) I thought I got through the evening fairly well. I didn't tear up - or need tissue for any fluids defiantly leaking from my facial orifices... until I made the a...
