I Need a MAJOR Me Moment Right About Now…

This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of Dove Ice Cream. All opinions are 100% mine.

… but since I can’t, a “Mini” moment will do.

*sighhhhh*

In case you don’t keep on top of all my other blogs (don’t feel bad, I don’t, either!), I’m renovating my home. The kitchen, laundry room, and dining room, to be exact. Plus we’re redoing all the plumbing, all the electric, and removing the old furnace and ductwork.
:whyohwhy:
Yeah, that’s how I feel right now.

Demolition is SOOOOO hard. Just so hard. It’s even worse when you can’t wash your dishes or your laundry, and have electrical cords snaked through holes in the walls from the upstairs to the downstairs… we’ll get through this, and we’ll get through it victorious, too! But it’s the “through” part of getting through… it’s not a fun time right now, that’s all.

So when I saw that Dove Ice Cream is having a “My Mini Moment” contest, my heart did a few leaps. BOY OH BOY could I go for a MAJOR mini moment right about now! I’m seriously thinking of taking a little time off from plaster and lathe removal to enter this contest. Here’s the scoop:

Dove is asking women to share their “mini” moment of escape. The grand prizes are more than mini: a getaway to Napa Valley, spa services for a year… orrrr…. (ready?!) a mini-home makeover!!!! You have to submit a photo and an essay to enter. The “My Mini Moment” contest ends June 7, 2010.

Mmmm I love Dove chocolate ice cream. I remember when they came out with it, back in the 80s. It was this big chunk of vanilla ice cream on a stick, coated with thick Dove chocolate. I used to get them at a local deli on Lexington Ave in Manhattan. They were SOOOO good. And I was young back then, so the calories burned right off. Mmmmm. Well, today, the Dove minis are only 70 calories. I can do that. 😀 Their new Café Collection features Java Chip and Cappuccino Flavors.. oo la la. They are yummy! I think they are little mini moments in of themselves.

So anyway, check out the contest. I think I will. I surely could use a MAJOR mini moment…..
