Spring Giveaway Day 4 & 5

This is my catch up blog from yesterday so here we have goodies for Day 4 (yesterday) and Day 5 (today)

A giveaway wouldn't be complete without chocolate so when I spied these Springtime mini figures in my local Co-Op I knew they were just the ticket!!!

Day 5 saw me trawling the GREENMETROPOLIS site (if you're an avid reader (buyer of books - Justine from Down to Earth with a Bump) like me it's a great place to recycle/buy/sell books) I was trying to find a Spring titled book and as I'd spent the past few days checking the shelves of our local charity shops where I couldn't find anything with Spring in the title, not even a gardening book, Greenmetropolis came to my rescue and I found this book



Here's the blurb as my kids would say!!!

When Lou Winter picks up a dog-eared magazine in the dentist's waiting room and spots an article about clearing clutter, she little realises how it will change her life. What begins as an earnest spring clean soon spirals out of control. Before long Lou is hiring skips in which to dump the copious amounts of junk she never knew she had. Lou's loved ones grow disgruntled. Why is clearing out cupboards suddenly more important than making his breakfast, her husband Phil wonders? The truth is, the more rubbish Lou lets go of, the more light and air can get to those painful, closed-up places at the centre of her heart: the love waiting for a baby she would never have, the empty space her best friend Deb once occupied, and the gaping wound left by her husband's affair. Even lovely Tom Broom, the man who delivers Lou's skips, starts to grow concerned about his sweetest customer. But Lou is a woman on a mission, and not even she knows where it will end ...
So a Spring Affair is winging it's way to me as we speak (obviously this will cause a little delay in sending out the parcel but hopefully it will all be worth waiting for!!!!

I thought I'd do a little reminder as to what we have so far....

I still have two more days to go before my birthday so will be adding more goodies tomorrow and Monday.
Closing date for entry is midnight on Monday 7th March and I will pick a name out of the hat on Tuesday.
