Dove Bar Ice Cream Miniatures Giveaway!

"When you think about that one moment in your day that is just for you, that one moment where you’re able to enjoy some “me” time and wipe away the cares of the day, what do you think of?"  

Hmm... for me, my "mini moment" is probably when I come home from work and lay down on the couch with my pup, Sadie.  She's not always so thrilled so cuddle, but I force her to nonetheless.  Sometimes I'll make a cup of green tea, sit on the ground and scratch her chest (her favorite).  Or sometimes we'll play fetch with her most beloved toy, a stinky stuffed olive she's had since her first Christmas.  I just love that pup of mine...  What is your "me" moment?

The kind people at DOVEBAR® Ice Cream Miniatures have contacted me about a contest they ran last month, “My Mini Moments,” asking people to describe their ideal mini me moment.  Now, they are down to 10 finalists and want YOUR vote!  The public gets to decide who wins the fabulous prizes - a mini-getaway to Napa Valley, spa services for a year, or a mini home makeover (I know, some seriously amazing prizes!) Now through July 13, you have the chance to read all 10 finalist's entires and cast your votes for who you feel deserves a prize!  


And for doing so, you can score some free grub!  DOVEBAR® Ice Cream Miniatures is giving 10 of my readers a free product coupon to enjoy some of their Ice Cream Miniatures!  All you have to do is:


1.)  Visit the Dove Bar My Mini Moment contest site and read the finalists' entries (read below for a snippet of each finalist's story)
2.) Cast your vote!
3.) Come back to this blog post and tell me who you voted for and why you think they deserve to win.  Make sure to put your name & email in the post so I know how to contact you if you win!
