And this time...I get to find out who my secret spoiler is! Without further ado, I give you...AMY! Go visit Amy, won't you, and congratulate her on a job VERY well done! She loves animals, adores beagles (and daschunds, MB!), loves music & reading & writing and is also Harry Potter fan! Go say hi!

Amy has been the absolute best secret spoiler, altho this time...she sent me COCKROACHES:

Big, dead cockroaches!

Amy's GROSS!

Well, not really...actually, the cockroaches came in this:

and tasted quite delicious, or so Amy said. I couldn't put it in my mouth LOL! I'll bring it to work tomorrow and get one of the girls who always amuses me by trying the Bertie Botts Every Flavor Beans to eat one...and I'll try to photograph it LOL!

Amy also sent me two things from my wish list:

Greek honey and Tuscan Chestnut Spread with Honey Almonds! Yum!!!

This has been so much fun, all due to Amy. This last box was addressed to The Lovely and Talented Janet Mylastname...and the postwoman said...are YOU the lovely & talented Janet? I cracked up and muttered something about a strange friend in CA...and Amy...that's you! Thanks for making this game so much fun.

A friend recently said (and another agreed) she didn't understand why someone would want to play this Secret Spoiler game. She said, among other things, that it seems very materialistic (yes, that's me, I'm the very definition of materialistic), downright gimme gimme (again, that's just so me) and that it gives a whole new meaning to "Pimp my blog". I tried to explain the concept, but I don't know...maybe they don't have much of a sense of humor or their idea of fun is just something else entirely! Oh well, takes all kinds, right?

Anyway, the conversation went a little something like this:

me: well it's nice to know you both think i'm materialistic, gimme gimme and out to pimp my blog.

she: HAHA! No, i just feel that id rather spend ot on people I know and love than strangers.

me: it's like spending money on yourself, tho.

she: Right, so, like id just spend money on myself.

me: right, but it's fun to get things you'd buy for yourself in the mail.

OMG! The cockroaches look so awful! Yuckie, yuckie!!! And it's only 7AM and I was just finishing my eggs!

OMG!!! You couldnt PAY me enough to put that in my mouth!!!!

Eww that first glance... Hey, here via Michele's today. Have a good one, without bugs.

I'm afraid the cockroach clusters would have to leave the house. Shudder! Only thing I didn't like about Harry Potter!

Thanks for visiting via Michele!

No matter how good they may possibly be there is no way that I could put those candies in my mouth. That picture of them alone gives me the crawlies!

OK those cockroaches are gross! I have nothing against Secret Spoiler, it is just not my thing. I aplogize if my post offended or hurt you. Really it was not my intent! Silly girl why would I be mad. Seems you are more upset with what I said. Touche....as long as we are still meeting at Ned's on Friday!

Awww..how fun!

ooh, i would soooo eat those and i would love to gross people out doing so!!! heheeheheeee!

Oh...THAT bug picture! Eeewwww. Remember the noise my husband thought I was making yesterday? Well, I'm making it now.

Haaaark, harrrrrkkkk.

We all pimp our blogs in some way. I think it sounds like a whole lot of fun. I'm such a lazy procrastinator that I'd be terrible at something like this. :-)
Those cockroach clusters are disgusting looking.

I am so glad you enjoyed your last box o' goodies...

Did your test subject...er...coworker try them?? Really they are just gummy candys with a crunchy shell...delish. I ate both of mine in the same sitting. Hee hee.
