A few months ago, I had so much fun visiting blogs in the Bloggy Carnival, that I decided to join up this time. I scoured my house to find a prize worthy of this carnival. I decided on a box of "stuff". :) How is that for original? The box will be an assortment of full size cosmetics (at least 3 products) and at least a dozen sample products. I'll dig deep and pull out some fun stuff. The cosmetics will have a retail value of about $15. I'll add something for every 25 comments I receive on this thread.
Here is what's in the box so far:
* Sally Hansen Hard as Nails Hard as Wraps Polish
* Jane Colorless Translucent Face Powder
* Jane Sheer Protection Formula (SPF 15)
* Various samples
The rules:
Please post a comment below. Bonus points if you post something relevant to my blog. (i.e. something that sounds like you read at least one of my posts!)
Sorry, only US addresses. (I am on a budget!) If you win, please be patient. I work full time and I have 3 very busy children. It might take some time, but I'll try to make it worth the wait.
I mentioned the Revolution Money Exchange on a previous post. I did some research to find out more about it. I found this site to be very helpful. Information

Oh, I love surprises! Count me in on this one. We women can never have enough "beauty products"!
i was reading your post about switching to whole grain pasta and cutting out pepsi...i so relate. and its funny...because my daughter eats all the whole grain without complaining. oh how i hope she doesn't fall into the traps i did...that i can train her well to make good choices from day one. i can relate to the struggle of changing eating habits!

Julie! I so totally saw the Queen too! My elementary school was on Victoria Avenue and her motorcade drove by on her way to open the music school at our local university. So cool! I checked out your other blog a little...good luck with your goal! You can do it!
Great giveaway! I think it's cool that you have both biological kids and adopted ones...my honey and I are considering adopting.
A box of stuff is always nice!!! I hope that you trip went well. We have been through the adoption process, but ended up being surprised at my pregnancy with my dd.
i love the silly blog names you chose for your kids! hehe

Don't need in on your drawing, but just thinking of you and dropped by to say hi. :)
What a great friend--the one who bought you a new outfit to wear to see your mom! The color is one of my favorites.
What a cool idea!
Very fun giveaway - who doesn't love cosmetics?
I've been seeing that Revolution Money Change a couple of times now, but I'm still unsure about it. I don't even have a Paypal account.
I would love to win and I think it's amazing how you and your husband talked about adoption and infertility at church. People need to know they arent alone and it's ok to adopt.
I think it is really cool how open you and your husband are about adoption. It will really help others who are in your shoes! What a great giveaway! Please count me in! Thanks!
Cosmetics are great for a giveaway. Thanks for doing this!
Wow... your mattress does look painful! You should look into a sleep number bed... my husband and I got one a couple of years ago and it has been AMAZING!
I don't know how you could stop drinking pepsi for 6 weeks! I tried stopping for 2 weeks and I have had a soda here and there since the two weeks. But I have still been sticking with water for the most part.

my sister is struggling with secondary fertililty...it was a miracle for their first, and now she's back to feritility drugs and many prayers.
Great giveaway! I enjoyed reading your post about going to California! Can't wait for more!
First off, congratulations on your weight loss. If you love Walgreens, you should go to CVS if you havn't been there yet! They are always giving away free stuff. My bathroom cabinets are packed full of stuff so I sent a bunch to a friend who was stationed in Iraq.
That's great! I love cosmetic stuff!
CVS and Walgreens are both great! I've had more luck with CVS lately though.
What a great way to clean out the house and be generous at the same time!
What a great giveaway. I especially enjoyed the post about your friend buying you a new outfit to go see your mother. That was very special and something not soon forgotten!! Thanks.
this is a neat little pack your giving away

Did someone really ask if those are your kids' real names? What would they think of me, I recently "re-named" my kid on my blog!
Fun stuff--the bloggy giveaway is really fun, even if I am sort of neglectful of my family during it! My email addy is in my blogger profile, in case I win!
I read what you had to say about the book "Change your Heart, Change your Life" and I think I'm going to have to check it out.
Thank you for the giveaway!
You had mentioned about the wood chips catching on fire....well the same thing almost happened to my neighbor on Wednesday! She has a bunch of chips in the backyard waiting to be distributed and she saw smoke coming from them. I guess that is a danger with wood chips! Great contest prize! Thanks for the giveaway!
I love that your kids picked their pseudonyms! So cute!! :) Thanks so much for the giveaway! I'm a beauty product junkie, so this is perfect for me. Thanks!!
I looked around your site and know you would make toys if you inherited a plastic factory. Aren't those questions a hoot?
Great giveaway! I hope i'm the lucky winner! :) cute names for the kids! how unique
I haven't flown very many times eaither, but I love it. Now, I have never been stranded at an airport either, so maybe thaat is why I love it!
