Hello & welcome to the first (maybe) annual Life Is Short: Eat Dessert First Contest! This year I would like to send a few edible gifts to people who live far away but I have a dilemma-I do not know how they will ship! Help me determine which gifts stand up to shipping and which ones do not...
The rules are simple:
1. Leave a comment ON THIS POST telling me you would like to be submitted. You MUST have a name-I can not award "anonymous" as I don't know who you are!
2. To earn more entries, have other bloggers (who are not on my blogroll) come by to enter by commenting on this post. THEY MUST SAY THAT YOU SENT THEM. Their name will be entered and you will gain 1 more entry! The more people you send, the more entries you get!
3. If you are chosen as the winner, you must email me to tell me what items stood up to shipping and which items did not. After all, that is the main reason I am doing this.
Contest ends at 5pm EDT, Friday 11/21. At that time I will compile all entries and pick 1 grand prize winner. Depending on the number of entries received, I may also choose a runner up.
Winners will be contacted via email (as well as announced here) by 10pm EDT 11/21.
Please note, you must be willing to provide me with your *real* name and mailing address in order to receive the prize!
OK, so you want to play-but what is it that you will win?!?! Prizes may vary, but they will all be homemade edible gifts made by me.
So...do you want to play?! *Look for ways to earn bonus entries throughout next week*

A couple of someones are going to be just thrilled to pieces to win this contest! I can vouch firsthand that they are in for some major yummy goodness!
Hi Linda: I'm sorry! I can't a referral entry to Ivana-you're on my blogroll. :) Wouldn't be fair to bend the rules, but it was sure nice of you to ask.
I'd love to play. All the selections look delicious!
OMIGOSH! Bond sent me over here...and WOW....WOW!! But, no Obama cake? Sigh.
At any rate, I SO WANT SOME TREATS! I am restricting my daily caloric intake to 1280, but OMG...I would TOTALLY SAVE ALL DAY just for the chance to lick the icing off that first treat. In fact, I'm moving closer to the screen...aaaaah.....
