giveaway: nestle chocolate

Walking home from work a few days ago, I started thinking about the fact that I'm at one of the few stages of life for which September doesn't mean "back to school." There's this minuscule period between being a kid and having your own kids -- and while September still means shorter days and cooler nights, it doesn't mean textbooks and teachers anymore. Part of me was a little sad, this September, to miss out on that brand-new-year feeling!

Um, Katy, what does this have to do with that box of chocolate goodies I'm staring at? Ok, well, first of all, I'm half apologizing -- this was supposed to be a back to school giveaway and I kind of dropped the ball. The reader package has been sitting in my apartment begging to be sent out since before Fashion Week, and I'm only just getting around to posting about it.

Second, this package from Nestle contained these totally adorable Mommy-sized and kid-sized aprons, and I couldn't help but think about how cute it would be to have a little school-aged munchkin to put into the mini one. Fortunately, I have a little semi-munchkin of my own:

Isn't he a cutie pie? Now onto more important matters -- like how to win this package! And what's in it!

One lucky winner will receive the same package I received (don't worry, a fresh, pristine one -- my dog won't have worn the apron you're getting), which includes two cartons of Nestle mini-chocolate chip ice cream toppers, six coupons for free packages of Nestle chocolate chips and Tollhouse cookie dough, Mom- and kid-sized aprons, recipe cards, and other goodies from Nestle!
