Holiday Winner

Oh these comments were so much fun to read. The request to win the giveaway was to leave a comment about love. A quote, an unbearable experience, your heart pounding expression of joy ;) or some simple little ditty. 


And, you deliciously diverse stars of the universe wrote quotes from 19th century Romanian poetry to personal stories that made me laugh outloud. 


Well, I haven't yet learned how to use a random number generator to select a winner so I am still using the primitive method of names on slips of paper shaken about in a shoebox. And this is what I've randomly selected:


Jen, fellow gemini, adorable cosmetician, new blog friend and giveaway winner! Here was her comment on love

Jen said...

Cute contest, heres mine!

Don't fall in love with me yet

We only recently met

True I'm in love with you but

you might decide I'm a nut

Give me a week or two to

go absolutely cuckoo

then, when you see your error,

then, you can flee in terror

like everybody else does

I only tell you this cause

I'm easy to get rid of

but not if you fall in love

Know now that I'm on the make

and if you make a mistake

my heart will certainly break

I'll have to jump in a lake

and all my friends will blame you

There's no telling what they'll do

It's only fair to tell you

I'm absolutely cuckoo

Thank you all for joining in the fun and come back often for giveaways in the future. Or just to leave a note because I feel like we've crossed the threshold in our relationship :)
