Today is a cause for celebration. Why? Because today’s post happens to be my 99th one π
Err. Okay?
I know that 99 isn’t all that common of a number to celebrate, but seeing as my 100th post will fall on WIAW, I figure why not celebrate a day early and spread all the excitement over a couple of days instead of squishing it all into one.Β So, in light of today’s monumental event, I did a little bit of shopping…
Something for me (as a reward for all my hard work):
[A handled bowl. A baggie of my favorite coffee beans. Gossip Girl season 4]
And something for you (as a reward for… well… just being you):
No, it’s not a reusable grocery bag from my favorite store. It’s a reusable grocery bag full of goodiesΒ from my favorite store.
In the three months that I’ve had Running with Spoons, I’ve completely fallen in love with blogging. Not only has it provided me with an opportunity to share my love of writing, photography, food, and fitness with others, but it’s introduced me to some of the kindest and most supportive people that I know. People that I’m so thankful to have in my life. People like you.
Each and every comment, e-mail, or Tweet that you send my way warms my heart like you wouldn’t believe, and I wanted to show you how grateful I am for your readership by giving you an opportunity to win a goodies package containing a few of my favorite things.
Okay, okay! Enough with the sappy talk, woman! Show us the lootΒ already!
One lucky winner will receive:
1 box of Cinnamon Puffins
2 baggies of Camino instant hot chocolate mix (dark & milk)
2 Dagoba dark chocolate bars (lemon ginger & new moon)
2 baggies of Vega Shake&Go smoothie mix (chocolate and vanilla almond)
1 Kashi bar (raspberry chocolate) – 1 Luna bar (s’mores) – 1 Clif bar (chocolate almond fudge)
Plus any other random tidbit(s) that I happen to come across in the next week.

I’m grateful for the fact that by treating my body right, I’ve come to discover what it’s truly capable of. Hell yeah, healthy eating! :]

I’m grateful that I am finally starting to realize that I am lucky to have the body that I do–and that I am fortunate for it to be healthy and mobile and ready for anything. I love that I can run to get help if my car broke down on a long winding road, or that I can open a salsa jar that has it’s top screwed on so tight. I even love that I can haul huge grocery bags into the house–seems silly but I now love my body because it’s am strong and it’s about time I started taking notice! π Thanks for the giveaway, girl!

Hi Amanda, I just wanted to say that you’re incredibly sweet for having this giveaway for your readers. It is really through your experiences, thoughts and genuine positive outlook on life so beautifully written on this blog that has given me the extra little push I need each day to view food not only as nourishing, but as an overall pleasing experience in life.
Thank you π

I am grateful for my freedom everyday. Oh, and GPS…I am directionally challenged and I would end up in Canada without it π Not that there is anything wrong with Canada (been there, it’s beautiful), but when you are heading South…yeeeeah…no good. π

Fab giveaway! I can’t believe you’ve only been blogging for 3 months! I’m incredibly grateful for so much in my life, but I guess one thing that’s been highlighted recently for me is my health, I’m so grateful that I’m healthy and happy and able to do so many things with my body like running π
