Happy Valentine's Day & the winner is .......

Happy Valentine's Day Blogland Neighborhood!! ....or, shall we say ...


.....happy hearts and...



....flowers day !! both lovely gifts from Mr. Moonbeams.








OK .... so I'm stalling .... we're running a bit late with our Valentine Giveaway drawing here at MBIAJ Headquarters because we've been waiting for her majesty, The Queen of Hearts herself to get her royal self back from her day of beauty at the spa .....still waiting ......and STILL WAITING ......oh, here she comes .....what? oh, she says can I put all the names in "the hat" because her nails aren't quite dry .....(sigh) uh, sure.....




.......hmmmmmm, that fabric looks familiar .... could this "hat" be the Valentine Giveaway Mystery project? ......we'll see... (I have to stall again while Kitty finishes blowing on her nails ....(sigh)...oh, she says she's ready ....



......Kitty says "O.K. I'm going in .... I'll be back in a minute with the winning name....if I'm not back in a minute, send help..."

......hmmm, what the heck is taking her so long .... Kitty? Kitty? how's it going in there? oh, here she comes ...



...looks like she had a rough time in there, but she is holding a winning name ....it's Kathie / Mamabug !!!! CONGRATULATIONS Kathie Mamabug!!!! (email me your address so we can mail out your prize!!) .....what? oh, Kitty says sorry she has to run but she's got to finish sprucing up for her big date tonight with her Mystery Man ..... OK, while she does that, we'll show Kathie Mamabug what she has won .....



......the Valentine Mystery Project is a Chef Hat made out of the "I Love Lucy" fabric, a little "I Love Lucy" bank for your chocolate fund, and some heart shaped chocolates in that heart shaped box (or you could keep them in your chef hat like Lucy and Ethel did in the Candy Factory episode!)(if you click on the picture it should enlarge so you can see the loot better) .....oh, wait, let me show you how the chef hat looks on somebody ....



.....(sorry, this guy was the only one available to model on short notice ...)







....Ding Dong (doorbell)......Kitty ... your date is here!!! .... oh, she wants me to take their picture before they go out on the town .....




.....(drum roll...) so.... this is the Mystery Man !!! .....well, .... have a good time ! (I'm not quite sure what she sees in him ....I think her other offers for tonight were Peppi LePue and the Travelocity Gnome .... in which case I think she made the best choice ....)

ANYHOW.....Thank you everybody for playing along and for your great comments! and HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY !!!

Be back soon!
xoxoxo,
Mary Anne (aka Mare)

Congrats to Kathie! I am so relieved Ms. Kitty has chosen wisely as to whom she is dating. I was afraid she was stepping out with Gumby and frankly, he has always worried me. Happy Valentine's Day! Cheers.
