My First Give-Away: One Pound See's Candy Gift Certificate


This give-away is now closed.



That's right! I am doing my very first give-away today. I am actually really excited! I love See's candies. What about you? If you haven't heard of it, you can go ahead and visit their website. If you don't have a See's Candies store nearby, you can order online, too. They have the best truffles and toffee I've ever tasted. It also makes a great gift for any special events such as birthdays, Valentine's day, Easter, Christmas, anniversaries, etc. My favorite one is their almond truffle. My husband used to get me just those for my birthdays.

      Thanks for coming by my blog. I don't post as many recipes as you do for sure, but you'll find some here and there. I shouldn't have started looking at your blog yet since I haven't had breakfast and I'm getting sooo hungry. :)

    31. Love all your yummies, Sook, and look forward to reading more.

      I'm on yet another diet; the only way I can stick to it (mostly) is to have one indulgence each day - See's looks like an absolutely wonderful indulgence :)

    34. my resolution is to detox and eat more candy!

    35. This is the first time I've commented on your blog, so I just wanted to tell you how much I love it! You don't know me-I'm just another mom who loves to cook good food for her family and spent some time living in Rexburg so I relate to a lot of what you say. My husband was deployed to Korea while in the Army so I love your Korean food recipes too!

      ANYWAYS, my new year's resolution is to keep the weight off that I lost last year. See's candies definitely wouldn't help that, but I'd take them anyways.

      ReplyDelete
    36. I love See's! We had a friend that always brought some back from CA for us. Wonderful variety! Thanks for the opportunity.

      ReplyDelete
    37. Yay chocolate! My New Year's resolution is to cook more, eat more and drink more wine - oh the challenges of having a food & wine blog! Love yours by the way & thank you so much for your comment:)

    42. I love See's candies! I used to live near one when I lived in Arizona - the smell would waft down the block all the way to my apartment. I'm back in NY now and we don't have them here. I'd love to have some again.

      ReplyDelete
    43. Who can resist See's?? I think a good resolution would be to have a piece of candy a day for peace of mind. Works for me! lol
      Thank you for visiting my blog as I am thrilled it led me to yours.
      Take care.

    47. So glad you stopped by my blog so I could find yours. In the spirit of everything in moderation I thought I'd enter. :) I'm following you now and love the blog. My husband grew up getting this candy each summer. It is such a treat since we are on the eastern side of the US.
