~Rhoda
Thanks so much, Rhoda! <3 Cookies and cream ice cream is SO GOOD (one of my family's all-time favorites). :D Adding your three entries to my list!
DeleteHorray!!!! No social distancing or masks (if I had to wear a mask, I'd be avoiding your blog). The prizes look great!
ReplyDeleteI follow via blogger,
I LOVE mint chocolate ice cream, along with cookies and cream,
I told a friend, and
I don't know if this counts, but I reviewed your book on my blog a few weeks ago.
Yes. *laughs* Can't say I'd blame you if you did . . . xD
DeleteThanks! Yep, an older review on your blog certainly counts! Four entries for you. :-)
p.s. Mint chocolate chip is one of my FAVORITE ice cream flavors as well!! (I also really like butterscotch pecan.)
DeleteBut wow! It's been a long, long time since I last had ANY flavor of ice cream. It's possible that my taste may have changed just a smidgen of a bit during that time. :D
Yes! Mint chocolate chip is sooo good! I like butterscotch pecan too! (Okay, so I like all ice cream flavors, though chocolate is not a favorite [but I don't pass up ice cream]).🙂
Delete🤗🤗🤗
DeleteYAY!!!! A SIGNED copy of your book??!! Well, I would have to be out of my mind not to enter!!!! I follow your blog via both email and blogger, I like chocolate ice cream best (I have a dairy allergy), and I shared the news about the giveaway, and, well, I haven't read The Whispers God Gives yet, so..... I can't do a review ( that's part of the reason why I entered this giveaway). I can't wait to see who wins! ~Caitlyn
