50th follower giveaway!

Edit: Apparently Blogger won't allow OpenID comments to go through. I don't know why, I was blessed with the technological know how of a flea, and I have no solution for this so I ask those of you who encounter this problem to enter by sending me an email to the usual address: macnunuboo@yahoo.ca
T.T
Sorry for the inconvenience.
 
Well knock me over with a feather and consider me gobsmacked, I do seem to have hit the 50 followers mark! in fact I have 3 extras! Whee! human sacrifice! who's in?! xD
Hellooo sheepies, thank you for your interest in the words of a whiny Somalian pirate living on America's hat. I started this blog in the hopes that a Hollywood bigwig would come along, sign me up for some movie or book deal and save me from the hut that I'm living in. Tis quite the bother living in this hut, every time the elephants walk past, they end up trampling on my internet line and then I have to run all the way to the village to plug it back in.
Currently, I am still living in my hut, but I have hope.
Regardless of the setback, I promised myself that in the event that I reach 50 followers, I would have a giveaway. So here it is.
The rules to this giveaway are slightly different to the norm, I'm not here to solicit more followers, I just want to express my gratitude towards those who have been there for this here blog from the beginning. It's only fair, they've had to look at my face for longer. As a result, I would like to open this giveaway only to EXISTING followers (as of today, March 29, 2010), however, I know some of the people who read my blog do not have a blogger account, so if you are a reader and have previously left a comment on this blog, then you may enter this giveaway.
To enter, simply leave a comment to this post with answers to the following questions:
  1. What do you remember most from my blog?;
  2. What do you enjoy most from my blog?; and
  3. What recommendations/improvements do you suggest for my blog?
And the prize? One great bundle of love. At the moment, I don't really have many details (hence no photo), but I can tell you that it will consist of many things that I love. I will also possibly tailor the gift according to who wins it.
It WILL have the following:
  • MBD masks cos you all know how they're the shizniz to me.
  • MAC eyeshadow in Hey! it's my favourite eyeshadow in the whole wide world.
  • Lush cleansers.
  • MAC lipstick in Hue/lipglass in Underage.
  • Dariya fringe velcro.
  • Snacks de jour that I have been stuffing my face with lately.
All new of course.
Please note, I need to actually be aware of your existence or have seen your name before this post went up.
Winner will be selected by Random.org from a list of qualifying entries.
Entries close Monday 5 April, 2010.
This contest is open to international readers. Be prepared to provide your personal details should you win.
Questions can be sent to macnunuboo@yahoo.ca alternatively you can tweet me.

    1. What do you remember most from my blog?
    - When I think about your blog, the first thing that comes to mind is the food porn!! One of the things I like other than makeup is food hehe :]

    2. What do you enjoy most from my blog?
    --I enjoy everything that you have to offer such as food recipes, daily life, reviews, and tutorials.

    3. What recommendations/improvements do you suggest for my blog?
    --In my honest opinion, I don't thin there is anything you need to change on your blog. Everyone has his or her own style of doing things, and I believe this is your way of blogging.



    I hope to see more posts because I love reading them!! even though I'm not an active commenter heheheh ^^;;

    I love the content flow of your blog as it is. The balance of cooking entries, lifestyle entries and makeup talk makes it very engaging and fun. I'm sure that whatever changes you decide to apply would be for the best and I'd love it no matter what :D

  7. thanks for hosting this giveaway nunu! Here are my answers:

    1. What do you remember most from my blog? -- At first i found your blog when looking for MBD mask reviews then landed on your black pearl reviews which i enjoyed reading. Then I read all your entries and litterally DIED LAUGHING when you explained where "nunu" came about.
    2. What do you enjoy most from my blog? - well, makeup and food are things i can't live without, and you've got both!
    3. What recommendations/improvements do you suggest for my blog? - honestly i can't think of anything to change (other than maybe more frequent update cuz i really enjoy reading you). I feel that you really evoke feelings in your entries and I def. love the cute design... then maybe my recommendation to you is NOT TO CHANGE ANYTHING AT ALL! :)

    p.s. u prolly have a lot more than 50 followers cuz i can't imagine being the only one using google reader ;)

  8. yay congrats!

    1. I remembered most your soup! The one that starts with a b, that I can't pronounce. lol. It looks soo yums.

    2. I'm pretty new to your blog, but so far I enjoy just how you share your food with all of us. lol. And the snippets of your life.

    3. Hmm. Suggestions? I honestly, no lie, think your blog is great the way it is. Your setup, the color scheme, your posts, it defines who you are as a blogger.

  9. I would have entered this contest, but I realized I wasn't following you... hehe~ My bad! Good luck with the contest though! :)

  10. Oh cool I could enter... hehe~

    What do you remember most from my blog? It has to be recipe, recipe, and more recipes... hehe~ Most beauty blogs have only beauty related post with pictures of food. I can drool about the pictures of food, but I can't apply it into my life. With your recipes, I can take it beyond just pictures... wheee~ :)

    What do you enjoy most from my blog? It has to be recipes again. You have unique recipes that I don't know how to cook. Okay maybe I'm just centered on Korean cooking since that's the only thing my father eats... hehe~ I like learning new recipes to try. :)

    What recommendations/improvements do you suggest for my blog? There really isn't anything to change. It's very easy to read and enjoy the pictures. I can't think of anything to be honest.

  11. Congratulations on reaching 50 followers on your blog! It's a big milestone. :)

    I remember your recipes and My Beauty Diary masks posts the most. It's the reason why I started following your blog because I could drool over food porn and get my beauty fix. ^^

    I really enjoy your pictures from your blog. They're usually very large and great quality, almost look nice and professional. :)

    I think you're blog is great and you should keep doing what you're already succeeding at. I think more frequent updates would be nice but who am I to suggest updating more hahaha.

    Thanks for hosting such a nice giveaway. :)

  12. yay for milestones!!

    What I remember most... mhmm all your food posts (i never attempted them :( guilty as charged!) but the most memorable post was where you gave us the definition of a nunu... of course I didn't believe you, i thought you made it all up and had to google it myself :p

    what I enjoyed the most... the subtle humor!!! i. am. kiddings. not.

    what recommmedations/improvements.... mhmm this is hard because i'm still following and still reading... so obviously you're doing something right! I really don't have any complaints :p i mean you've never stated that this would be a makeup blog so I can't complain there's a lack of makeup posts. this not a food blog either, so I can't make you commit to food tutorials for us... so therefore... no complaints! XD

  14. 1) The thing I remember most from your blog are probably the yummy recipes you put up. You do things step by step and I love the pics!

    2) I guess what I enjoy the most is that knowing we live in the same city..and so I can easily relate to your postings (esp. when you put up pictures..etc)

    3) Improvements? Maybe some more makeup reviews? skin care reviews...share with us your good finds!!!

    PS. You bought the Dariya fringe velcro!!!

  16. I don't have a blog so I don't follow you the regular way (Google follow?) but I have left a comment before and I subscribe to blogs using Google Reader (including yours, of course) so I hope this counts as an entry! :)

    1. What do you remember most from my blog?
    Definitely your entry on MBD Black Pearl mask! I randomly found it at first through Google, and I was so impressed with your review that I just had to get some myself when I went to T&T.
    2. What do you enjoy most from my blog?
    I enjoy everything, but I have to say I like the beauty and food posts the most. (I love food and makeup porn, hehe) I love that you share recipes too!
    3. What recommendations/improvements do you suggest for my blog?
    Nothing really; of course, like everyone else, I'd love to see more posts :)

  17. 1. What do you remember most from my blog?

    Well, you dry-humping the bear in the post below this one.

    J/k! Your passion to MBD masks, I guess :)

    2. What do you enjoy most from my blog?

    Your recipes. They make me hungry and I want to lose weight so that's not good.

    3. What recommendations/improvements do you suggest for my blog?

    You're doing fine, don't worry about this aspect.

  18. What do you remember most from my blog? The false lashes tutorial. It's one of the few do-able, fully-explained entries on the web.


    What do you enjoy most from my blog? I love your light-hearted voice/tone for your entries (doesnt matter if it's your outings/experience/food). It's truly enjoyable to read when I take a break from work.


    3. What recommendations/improvements do you suggest for my blog? More posts. I know you're wondering if you should do more posts w/ less content or less posts w/ more content. Either is fine with me. Your blog is fun to read.
