Beate…you are amazing…look at all the comments already (let’s hope you surpass your last totals!). My favorite beverage is Earl Grey tea…I drink copious amounts of it with Splenda so I can not worry about all those liquid calories. My favorite treat would be peanut butter chocolate bars from Purdy’s (a chocolatier here in Canada)…they are so awesome, addictive and deadly!

 
 
Jana Says:

Ok Beate…that’s just too tempting to pass up!! :-)

So, my favorite dessert is Chocolate Brownies with Walnuts ideally topped with a scoop of Vanilla bean ice cream, and occasionally with some yummy chocolate sauce as well!

My favorite drink is probably good champagne, or sparkling wine. I’ve been enjoying the Sekt since getting here! :-)

Thanks for the contest…and all your fun creations!

Sandra Lew-Moll Says:

Those are hard questions. My favority candy is made by Cadbury but I can’t get it in the USA so I placate my love of it when I go home to Panama. It’s name is CRUNCHY and is like what I have heard called Fairy Food in this country. My favority drink will have to be Coke. Strangely enough I prefer Diet Pepsi to Diet Coke (go figure).

Wow! That’s some good looking blog candy there! I sure would love those inspiration sheets! When I first started buying SU! stamps, I didn’t realized how much I would love them. I firmly believe that I am now addicted to collecting them!

Favorite drink? Diet Coke, elixer of the Gods, of course!

Favorite candy, hmm..I have tons, I love candy. Right now in my drawer I have mentos, some spearmint leaves, and some hershey kisses!
Favorite dessert, hands down, cheesecake! I adore this stuff!

What is your favorite drink? Hmm..I would have to say coffee, but since having ulcers I can’t have too much of it..boo hoo, so I tend to drink rootbeer.
Love your candy, btw.

My favorite candy: Milk Chocolate Dove candy in any shape! If you let it melt in your mouth, it’s heavenly! But sometimes I have to chew it! :( I’ve never tried the dark chocolate variety. I also like Lemonheads, gotta have them at the movies!

My favorite dessert: Pumpkin pie with a dollop of whip cream! It brings back memories of the Fall, my parents & brother as we were growing up.

My favorite drink: Dr. Pepper & Mr. Pibb are a tie! On the “adult” side of a beverage it would have to be Smirnoff Twisted V Green Apple on my patio at night after a hot Summer night.

Thanks again for your beautiful artwork!

Hi Beate! You and my demo inspired me sooo much that I’m becoming a Demo - I should hear from SU today!!!

My favorite candies are anything with chocolate (m&m’s,milky way, chocolate covered raisins…) and Butterfingers.

My favorite dessert depends on the time of year and the time of month. Anything chocolate, pecan pie, strawberry shortcake, warm gooey cookies straight from the oven…. I’m hungry now!

My favorite drinks are milk and a good coffee mocha.

Thanks for all your wonderful artwork and tips!

 
 
Michelle Rose Says:

My favorite candy would have to be a Nutrageous candy bar. I Like my chocolate and I like my peanuts. They make a great marriage! As far as dessert, well…I’m not big on cakey type stuff, but cookies and brownies however, Yum!
My favorite drink is Tazo tea, but when I get to splurge, I usually get a diet Dr Pepper, Diet Cherry Pepsi or Coke and now my new favorite is Coke Zero.

 
 
Shannon Nordgren Says:

My favorite candy AND dessert is anything with toffee in it! Have you ever tried that recipe on the back of some German Chocolate cake mix boxes? A lot of people call it “Better than Sex Cake” but my pastor’s wife calls it “Better than Almost Anything Cake!” :o) My favorite drink is really water, but if I had to choose something else I’d say Root Beer. I’d love to win this - I love that ribbon but never got any!

Leah Says:

Congratulations! I would love to help you celebrate ;) My favorite dessert is always something chocolatey with fruit… I love trying new things & testing new recipes. The time old favorite is probably brownies though :) My favorite drink is probably lemonade - though I drink it in the form of Crystal Light most often.. lol

 
 
Debi Says:

Your site is great! Congrats on 10,000!!

If I would have to choose ONE favorite dessert I think it would have to be my dad’s 3 layer lemon pie… (I’m drooling as I’m typing this! hehe )

And without even a second thought, my favorite non-alcholic beverage is Unsweetened Iced Tea w/Splenda. My favorite alcholic beverage would have to be a Marguerita on the rocks w/rim salt.

Good Luck!

 
 
Jane Says:

My favorite candy is chocolate…mostly Dove because they melt in your mouth (there is no biting them-my rule) and they only have 1 WW point plus you get an inpirational message…what more could you want in a treat?
Favorite dessert: flourless chocolate cake with fresh whipping cream and raspberries.
Thanks for the offer. I will enjoy the candy when your son draws my name!

 
 
margot Says:

My favorite candy is M & Ms (commonly called just “Ms” at my house! Lol!).
My favorite treat drink is a Caramel High Rise-no whipped cream from Caribou Coffee.

Wow, more blog candy! Beate, you are as awesome as your cards!
My favorite dessert is anything my Mum made when I was a wee girl, but probably most of all was an old-fashioned steamed pudding she did. It had orange and lemon peel grated into the mix (I know, because I helped to grate them!), and it was heavenly.
I love Tim Horton’s coffee! Medium double double please (medium size, two sugars and two creamers, can you tell I live in Canada now!). And if we are talking about alcohol, a gin and tonic on a hot summer evening is lovely….
