You guys are the best! Thanks for thinking of us--you know we'd visit even without the prizes. You all are just too much fun to hang out with! Hope your hearts and tummies are full today, too ;)

I agree with the ladies. I love hanging out at Cigars. Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving.

I totally agree with everyone!

You guys keep us going, too, so believe me, you are all very much appreciated -- sometimes writing is difficult, or it's just a tough day, and coming by here and seeing you all can be such a perk-up. :)

I have my Monday gift all ready to go - I can't wait to pick my first recipient!

I've seen lots of blog contests lately, but this truly sounds like one of the best. But I agree with everyone else...I love stopping by Cigars, with or without presents. :)

sounds very wonderful, thanks ladies as always. love this blog

any winners from cait or sarah blogs earlier this year thanks

Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving - we have a new little granddaughter, Natalie to be thankful this year.

I love popping in here at this blog and the prizes are a bonus. Especially love seeing what contests are around for the holidays.

Congrats to Betty for being the first to win.

The generosity of you ladies continues to humble me. You truly do represent the best of the season! I love coming and reading the blogs (and the books!) even if I don't comment on them all. I'd do it without any prizes, as most everyone else has said, too. :-)

Happy Holidays - which every holiday you celebrate!

Cigars ladies! This is a nice way to end the year! Your thoughtful blogs and chatter are gift enough. That said, throw some swag my way! ;)

What a lovely and thoughtful thing to do. Thank you!

Enjoy your prize! :)

Wow! This was such a lovely surprise! I haven't been online as much the past week because I've been helping my daughter go through a rough patch. She and her long-term boyfriend just broke up and she's taking it very hard. So instead of celebrating her senior year and getting ready for first semester finals, she's very sad and mopey. Most everyone goes through this at some point in their life, often more than once, so I'm sure many of you can understand.

Thank you for pulling my name out of your magic hat and best wishes to everyone for a wonderful holiday season.

Betty

Congratulations Betty---sounds like you got a really great present.

Congrats, Ani.

Yippee for Betty and Ani! And I'm excited about the auction for Jo--I'm so sad for her loss, and am thrilled to see the warm generosity of the romance community at work in this event for her.

Congratulations to Ani for being a winner!

This is such a nice thing you guys are doing. ***hugs*** all around!

Congratulations to the winners and what a sweet idea. I hope everyone's holidays are special and not too stressful.

Making room for you in the winner's circle! ;-)

Buddy, what an awesome gift of one of Jeannie's necklaces!!! I'm jealous!

Kim, thanks for looking that up -- Sarah did announce winners, and did send the prizes. I did miss Cait's though, and so we picked one today -- PJ!!!

Thanks for helping me catch that...
