Last year was an amazing year for me in that I learned (okay, re-learned) how small & simple things can have such a huge impact on others. For example, on Valentine's Day, "somebody" *coughsGringa* heart-attacked my front door. Not knowing that I hate Valentine's Day, she managed by that small, simple act of taping hearts to make me smile and feel happy. As a result, I had a very enjoyable rest of the day with my family. This is just ONE of many experiences from last year. I am truly blessed with friends and family.

Then, I learned that my "Magical Munchy Popcorn" had an effect on a friend of mine... I had no idea why I felt prompted to make some up for her. I just did it. I didn't question it. I just did it. Then she wrote a post about it... and of course, made me cry.

So, could someone give me a drumroll here? brbrbrrb... actually, how does one describe a drumroll?





ANYWAY!




FANTASTIC NEWS!




I am hosting a...




GIVEAWAY!
Yeah *shrugs* I'm cool like that....





Seriously though, here's the scoop. I am giving away 3 kits to make Magical Munchy Popcorn! Why? Because I think it should be shared (and really, I shouldn't have stocked up on this... but it was on SALE!!!)

This giveaway is about helping somebody out. Helping somebody feel a little extra loved. Notice somebody is just feeling a little blah? Or perhaps going through some hidden trial? Make up this "Magical Munch Popcorn" and just drop it off with a smile and say, "Hi!" and see where it goes.

Did I mention I have THREE, 3 "kits" of this magical stuff to give away?! That means THREE lucky people will get to make this up and share it with their friend(s). (I say share because this does make a lot!)

Write a post on your blog describing a time when somebody did a "little" thing for you yet helped you tremendously. LEAVE A COMMENT HERE SO WE CAN LOOK AT YOUR POST!

OH - one MINOR detail! This giveaway will close MIDNIGHT (PST) January 11th. That's THIS SUNDAY folks! My Boo will be drawing 3 lucky winners out of a hat shortly after (that is, Monday morning before school.)

I participated, but I don't know how to link back. I know this isn't what you wanted, but it's all I know to do and you know how to get to my blog if you don't like this. I'm sorry.

Whew, I'm glad I didn't miss the deadline. I will post tomorrow. I've been trying to spend lots less time on the computer so I haven't had a chance to write anything of substance lately.

I totally participated. I told you I would. I just like to give a little bit of time inbetween posts... Anywho - come on over. Read it. Comment on it. Love it.

I would love to win this munchy popcorn. I posted about a kindness that someone did for me on my blog.
Thanks!

Sorry it took me so long, but I finally have my post up. =)

Thanks for doing this. It was a memory that I needed to remember in print.

Ooh! A "heart-attack" door! Love that! I may have to "borrow" the idea. :)
