Taro Ko Prize Giveaway!!

Inspired by Kat's Prize Giveaway, I decided to have one of my own. I placed an order earlier this week with Dale Nagamine of Taro Ko Chips. The order should be arriving soon! I will be giving away 5 (FIVE) bags to one lucky winner.

You can either comment here or e-mail me at JalnaA@aol.com with reasons why you like to read my blog. Deadline is Thursday, March 11, 10:00 p.m. (my bedtime). Your name will be put into a "hat" and a drawing will be held on Friday March 12th.

Sorry, but my siblings and my coworkers are not eligible. Gotta give other people chance. Hooo hooo!! Exciting!!

I like to read your blog:
Because you post often.
Your posts are short, to the point and not overly wordy.
You post recipes that are simple, local and of interest to me.
Your humor and enjoyment of life comes through in your writing.
Your posts convey a lack of pretension; I like your down to earthiness.
And last but not least, your FABULOUS photography and your enthusiasm for your hobby.
I thoroughly enjoy your blog and would have told you this without the chance of winning taro chips!

Mahalo,
Winnie

Yay! Oh, how I'd love to win, Jalna!! hahaha! I don't quite remember how I found your blog. I faithfully read your blog each day and look forward to seeing what you have posted. Because of all the pictures you take regarding food, I do the same. I know "copy cat". Your posts create so many different emotions and I just love what you have to say. Thank you, Jalna!!

Erick said...

One bag is good enough for me. Thanks.

jalna said...

Hey Kat, your name is sooo going into the hat.

Hi Winnie, thank you so much for your kind words.

This is so fun yeah, Betty!

Erick, if you win you'd best take all five bags. It goes so fast, and I know a few people you could share with.

GOOD LUCK Y'ALL!!

i'm with K&S: no need to put my name in da hat; i just enjoy reading about your daily adventures! i'm amazed you can do it every day! and of course, i love looking at your pictures; it helps me to understand photography a bit more and you've replied to my many naive questions about dis and dat; not to mention the various other photographers i've gotten to know about like ben chrisman! arigatoooo!

what if I quit tomorrow? Do I still qualify?

jalna said...

You're sooo welcome Rand. I kinda can't believe it myself . . . back in September of '08 I told myself I'd try to post something everyday and see how long I'd last. Except for a hiatus or two, I've pretty much kept up all this time. I feel myself winding down now though, so I may end up posting a little less often soon. I'm so glad you've joined me for the ride! We'll see how this ends up, yeah. Thanks for all your support. Even though you said no need, your name will definitely go into the hat.

Les, you toooo funny!!

Hi Jalna!
I look forward to reading your blog and viewing your photos every day! It brings a smile to my face. You have an adorable husband and a loveable dog. (I love hearing about Kona)

You must be such fun to work with in the office. Can you come work at our office?

Your everyday local adventures bring joy to an otherwise so so day. You're doing a great job!

I like reading your blog because there are always interesting photos, but moreso the very funny stories that go along with them! :) I also like reading because Hawaii is such a small world, and I have already seen 3 different groups of people (in your photos) that I know in real life!

jalna said...

Hey josefina. Thanks for responding. Isn't it such a small world here? Funny that you can look for people you might know in my pics! Good luck on Friday.

bebedeer said...

Oooh! I kept meaning to ask you to order me a bag of those taro chips! But, since you're doing this prize giveaway thing, I'd like to participate! Ok...well, I've been a loyal reader ever since you told Edsel about it! I love to try the ono recipes that you post and check out the restaurants you guys go to. I also love the colors in your photography! Good luck to me:D

jalna said...
