I thought she said there’d be a surprise…
Sorry I disappeared yesterday. I got sick at work and had to go home. It was not fun at all.
I’m feeling a bit better today- a little sleepy, but hopefully the worst is over.
I intended to sleep in today, but my body disagreed. I went for about an hour-long walk instead. It was nice and refreshing. When I got home, I made a quick breakfast- a cup of Kashi GoLean (it was hiding at the back of the pantry), a quarter cup of Cheerios Crunch, a few raisins, and a cup of skim milk. The cereal packs in 13 grams of protein per cup. That’s amazing for cereal!
I also had a few pre-packaged grapes that I bought at the convenience store last night. I really need to go to the grocery store but wasn’t feeling up to it. I’m running really, really low on fresh veggies and fruit : (
Now for the good news- another contest! This time, I’m offering a one-year subscription to either 1) Self 2) Fitness 3) Bon Appetit 4) Cooking Light or 5) Shape! All you have to do is:
- Comment on this post what magazine you would choose and why.
- For an extra chance to win, link back to this post on your blog.
- If you don’t have a blog, e-mail me at sarahssweetlips@gmail.com for an extra chance to win.
And that’s it! The contest ends Thursday at midnight. I’ll announce the winner on Friday.
Happy Tuesday!



I would choose Shape because I get the other magazines already
Great contest! I am linking back in my next post!
I would pick Bon Appetit because I just said to myself this morning that I wanted to subscribe to a food magazine so that I can start expanding my cooking skills. This is an awesome contest!
I choose Shape because I already get the other fitness ones and I just ordered Cooking Light last Sunday!! Thanks for running this contest.
I’d like to try Bon Appetit. I usually just flip through it at the grocery stand but it would be helpful to actually subscribe to it.
Wow this is awesome! I would choose Bon Appetit- because I really could use some inspiration to cook healthy, happy meals for my fiance and I to share. I am trying to really learn to enjoy food and having some beautiful photography and interesting new ideas will definitely inspire me. As Mike and I begin our life together, I want our dinners to be joyful and yummy, not gloomy and depressing (for either of us!). You are so generous and sweet! Thank you! Will link back in my next post!
That is so generous, and a really great idea for a giveaway, the gift that keeps on giving! I love Cooking Light, I drool over the recipes in the checkout line…
I’d love a subscription to Shape! I already have Cooking Light coming to my door (and love it), but I don’t have any fitness-related mags. This would be great.
I would love to have Shape. I love the cool at home fitness articles!!!
I’d love to get Self. I buy all my magazines and it really adds up, so a free subscription would be awesome!
I would greatly appreciate a years subscription to Cooking Light because I am trying to eat out less & cook more (good for me) meals at home and I think this magazine would help out greatly.
Thanks so much for sponsoring this giveaway!

I would love to get Self. I like the articles and fitness tips!
Cool! I’d chose Shape, because I already get Fitness nad Cooking Light
I would love a year’s subscription to SELF! I think it’s a great magazine because it’s not just about losing weight, but rather focuses on the whole self!
I would choose Fitness for the workout tips and recipes. I already get Self and Shape and love them. Thank you so much for the opportunity!
Hi Sarah!
Sorry you got sick…that happens to me at work quite frequently…pain in the butt!!! I would definitely pick Shape. It’s been a favourite of mine for a long time. I love their workout tips, and the quick and easy recipes. Especially since I dont cook very well…I need all the help I can get!!
I would pick Cooking Light because I am looking for new healthy recipes. I’ve been stuck in a rut lately cooking the same things over and over. My husband would really love it if I win this
This is a hard one! I think I would choose Shape. They are all great. The only one I think I wouldn’t want is Bon Appetit only because the recipes are too complex for a single person:)
I’m going to say Self. It’s a great magazine. Adding link back to 3/31/09 post!!!
Id choose cooking light! I love to bake, and could read those all day, just looking at the pictures and everything! thanks for the giveaway
I would choose Fitness because I already subscribe to all the others!
I would choose cooking light b/c I am horrible cook. I am going to be a stay at home mom soon and expected to actually cook I am sure! So this magazine would really help me out. Monica
I could use a little more “Shape” in my life! My treadmill reading is becoming a little boring- so a new magazine would be amazing!!!!
Cooking Light fo sho!!!
what an amazing giveaway- this is really sweet and generous!
i would pick cooking light- i love the recipes from there! thanks for the chance!
I would choose fitness because being a college student (but trying to live and eat healthy) is a challenge and I could use all of the tips I can get! Plus it’s interesting!
Awesome contest! And blog!
awesome giveaway!! i’d probably chose shape because you get fitness, health, and good recipes:)
I would love to receive Shape, since I need to get myself into better shape! Thanks for the opportunity.
Great giveaway! I would choose Shape… I love that magazine and my subscription just ran out!
I would love to get Shape…I love to read magazines while on the treadmill, and that is one that I buy probably most often (besides women’s health) so it would be great to have a subscription!!
I would loooove a subscription to shape! thanks so much for hosting this giveaway!
hooo ha!! i wanna subscription!! LOVE ‘em all
I would pick Cooking Light because I would really like to expand my cooking abilities.
Self! I like how it includes realistic portrayals of fitness, fashion, relationships and life. What a great giveaway and thanks for the entertaining blog.
