I learned a valuable lesson these past couple of days:
1- if you want comments on your blog, offer prizes
2- if you need an ego boost, bribery really does work!
Thanks to everyone who commented! It was really fun to read your comments and very gratifying. I feel quite inspired!
Sally and Nora will be figuring out the official winners — all of our readers are winners, of course — and making the announcement later. Merci!!
And here am I, getting to be first, having not seen yesterday’s post until this morning 🙂 Just to prove that you don’t have to bribe us (though I’m guessing it gets lurkers like me out of the undergrowth!) Thanks so much for your blog – looking forward to seeing what the 5th year will bring 🙂

Even without bribery, I read. I comment.

Well, promise I read comment and visit all the time!
Love your blog with or without prizes!

Am more of a lurker than anything else, so bribery was kind of a factor in getting me to comment (snort, sorry!). Have really enjoyed reading your blog since finding it a bit back.

Wow indeed! That was a lot of comments. I am thrilled if I get four, which I think is my record. Actually, I am thrilled if I get one!
