giving thanks & giveaway

~ Etc.

today i’m grateful for

-bubble yum chapstick in watermelon. it smells like watermelon pop rock! i literally grinned so big after smelling it.
-frozen tim tams
-despite their fights every 5 mins., the moments when adalie and ariana watch out for each other and love each other. like during lunch today adalie said to ariana, “ana, make sure to eat your vegetables okay? and your rice too.” and when adalie pretended to be sleeping beauty and lied on the floor, ariana went up to give her a kiss on the lips which “awakened” the princess.
-for jay for always taking out the trash.
-that we have a nice home that can accomodate 6 college boys for a night for the apparent crazy blizzard we had last night.
-the blizzard that never happened.
-despite our differences,the good relationship jay and I have with both sides of our in-laws.
-the chicken kalbi that turned out fabulous for last night’s dinner and the 6 boys and my family who devoured it all.
-that i have no drama in my life right now. knock on wood.
-the neighbor that just dropped off a plateful of white chocolate popcorn. yum!
-for jay’s kalua turkey he’ll be making for thanksgiving.
-i just realized 1/2 of these are of food… hmm.
-how jay and i still flirt like we’re dating.
-for God for being so kind, sweet, and loving towards me. I would be nothing without him.
and to express my gratitude, I would like to to a giveaway!

the winner can choose any item from my store, S.T Collection.
i haven’t worked on my store at all for awhile but i just updated some.
Do you think I should start making/selling again?(none I’ve made on the store right now) I’m still deciding…
to enter, visit my store and simply leave a comment by monday, november 29th.
best luck!
