The terrible twos...
Today my blog turns TWO!
I can barely believe that it has been two years since I logged onto Typepad and wrote my first post. Not only does my blog turn two today, but I have another reason to celebrate. Today will also signify my 2,500 comment. I'm actually pretty impressed with that considering I haven't been particularly regular and consistent with my posting over the last 12 months.
In light of this double celebration, I have decided to put together two special packs of yarny goodness and birthday giveaways. One pack will go to the 2,500th comment and the other will be given away raffle style to anyone who leaves a comment on this post.
So, what do you need to write in this comment? Well that is easy, you just need to tell me if you prefer pink or chocolate brown.
Pink
Two skeins of Noro Lily yarn, two balls of Kidsilk Haze colour blushes, one ball of Opal Uni sock yarn colour number 1413 and a secret mystery non-knitting gift.
Chocolate
Four balls of Cleckheaton Country Silk 8ply (DK weight), six balls of Phildar Licorne and a special non-knitting mystery gift.
Terms & Conditions (because being a marketer it is in my blood to write terms and conditions)
- To enter you must leave a comment indicating which pack you would prefer
- Only one comment per person. Any duplicates will be excluded.
- If both the 2,500th comment and the raffle winner choose the same pack the preference will go to the raffle winner. The 2,500th comment will then have a choice to accept or decline the remaining pack.
- The draw will take place on Tuesday 20th February.
- Comments for this post will be closed off sometime over the weekend.
- No late entries will be accepted.
Ok, enough of those boring giveaways. Let's eat some cake!
In keeping with the pink and chocolate theme and also being an Australian blog, perhaps some pink and chocolate lamingtons would be appropriate.
Happy blog birthday to me!
Good luck to all of you!
happy blogiversary, darling! love you! pink!

Happy blogiversary.
Mmm, lamingtons.
I think the pink and chocolate should get mixed together. I love that combination. I like them both but I guess I'll have to say I prefer the pink.

Happy Blogiversary. To choose between pink and brown is really, really hard. Together they are my favorite color combination. And pink is my favorite color. Tough, tough choice. I will go with pink. Decision made!

Happy, happy blogiversary!!! It should be us showering you with gifts! How very kind of you to be the giver of gifts! I know that I should say the chocolate wins over the pink, but weirder things have happened than me picking pink. Pink!

Happy Anniversary! I love the pink...and the brown...and the lamingtons look delectable, too. Pink is my first choice, I guess ... unless I get hungry.
