I LOVE A SUNBURNT AUTHOR (a.k.a. Bronz Blog)

I'm Buying This Book!

Not only because it's all pretty and pink, or because the headline book is Helen Bianchin's current #1 Waldenbooks bestseller The Martinez Marriage Revenge, but because every purchase is an entry to win a cleaner for a year!!! Is that a cool promotion or what? Haven't read the small print and really hope that HM&B authors are not excluded. Um, it is a Harlequin Australia promotion so the cleaner prize is probably restricted to ANZ readers. :-/

But since I'm reaching for my credit card to order myself a copy and it does look like a cool collection of stories and a perfect Mothers Day gift, how about I buy two? The second I will give away as my Mothers Day gift to one lucky reader who visits and comments on any of my blog posts between now and April 15.

To give you something to comment about: a cleaner for a year sounds like THE perfect Mother's Day gift to me, but perhaps you disagree. What would you like a year of -- a massage a day, a personal trainer, flowers delivered daily to your door, your own personal chef, laundry service, gardener, chocolate delivery service? What would put a smile on your face every day this year?

A book a day keeps a smile on my face.

*ahem*

But if it's gotta be something you listed, I'll go with the trainer--I'm not always as disciplined as I should, and I really should exercise more.

Hmm, it's tough to choose. I want the massage and the laundry service.

I love your list, Bronwyn. It is the ultimate. What a choice.
I would enjoy having a personal chef. To me that is creative and a must in life. I could workout easily and the cleaner service is a necessity as well.

Oh no, definitely doesn't have to be one of my choices. They were random examples. I love your book a day, AL. That would be an awesome prize, yes?

Myself, I NEED the trainer but I'm sure it'd be a waste on me. I would pay him extra to give up on the PT and start doing handyman stuff.

Handyman for a year -- now that would be a cool prize, too...

Hey Jane, Diane. The choice is difficult. Maybe ALL of them (plus a book a day and the handyman) would be the ultimate.

Impressive and lovely list, Bronwyn. I enjoyed reading the choices. For me a personal chef would make life wonderful. A cleaning service I had always dreamed about. I already have a built in handyman whose services are great and efficient.

A house keeper and cook would just be wonderful!! Books would be nice but I wouldn't need one a day but maybe if I had the house keeper and cook would make a differents.

Ellie, lucky you having your own handyman. Mine is rather handy, he's just always too busy to get to most things.

Virginia, exactly! If we had someone to take care of all these pesky things then we could read as many books as we liked...possibly while on the treadmill or stairmaster, if we had the personal trainer!

Love this choice and mine would be a perpetual cook and cleaning service. Who wants to deal with mundane chores. Reading is my priority.

I would love to have a housekeeper and a deep tissue massage once a week.

I'd have to go with a book a day, too *bg*

I would love to visit Australia and stay in a different person's home each week. I could help(or hinder) with whatever they have to do.

A book a day works for me. If given a person for a year, I would pick someone that would go to a dog shelter, and walk the dogs every day. They need some kind of exercise. Dogs have my heart in life. Spelled backwards you have GOD. It doesn't get any better than that. Unconditional Love.

Since I live 2 and a half hours away from my kids (adults now) I would love a phone call a day from them

All of the above are really great;
however since my most favorite thing to do is read I would love to
have someone organize all my books so that when the urge came to reread one of them i would know exactly where to find the one I want rather than search through hundreds to find the one I want while gathering together all those special ones I had forgotten I had
really liked and wanted to read again also. Then I wouldn't waste
time searching and could read more.
