100th Post Contest!!

As a person who loves competeing, I had to do something fun to celebrate my addiction to blogging. :) That's right folks, I've posted 100 blogs and what better way to celebrate than to reward the folks who read my blabber. It's not a big reward but you can win a $5 gift card to Starbucks. Even if you're a lurker, now is your chance to let me know you're there and maybe win a free coffee.
So on to the contest....

Post a comment with what you would want if you got to choose the gifts for the 12 days of Christmas. I'll put all the names in a hat and draw one. I'll mail you your gift card. You need to post by next Monday, December 10th. Here is my version of the 12 days of Christmas.

12 shades of shadow (eye shadow that is)
11 pounds of weight loss
10 PAINTED TOES
9 more miles per gallon
8 hours of sleep at night
7 passenger mini-van
6 months- no re-runs
5 NIGHTS OF TAKE OUT
4 brand new outfits
3 healthy Thompsons
