Bloggy Boot Camp: The classes, the knowledge, the women, the expertise, the valuable information and… the door prizes!
Yes, I am a winner. Perhaps not THE grand prize winner, but I still think I scored.
So, without further ado, it’s time to reveal my prize. Look closely. Can you spot the difference between these two pictures?
Yep, there you have it. I won an Ice Cream Pint Cozy!
Holding your pint of sweetness with a crumpled paper towel is so 2010. Now, Squirt can eat her Cookie Dough Ice Cream in style and I can enjoy some well-adorned Schweddy Balls.
The Ice Cream Pint Cozy is handmade by TaraDara. I had the pleasure of meeting Tara at Bloggy Boot Camp and she is truly a nice woman and a talented artist and blogger. Besides the ice cream cozy, she makes other great stuff, including Kindle and iPad covers, wallets, and business card holders. In fact, I’m thinking I need a Kindle just so I can get the Dr. Seuss cover for it. If you get a chance, check out her Etsy shop here – could be some great, unusual Christmas presents.
hmmm… and as I wrote this post, I started making up a Schweddy Balls song to the tune of Smelly Cat, Smelly Cat… Perhaps I really DO need to start vlogging!
Disclaimer: I received no compensation or product for writing this post. I simply needed to share with you a funny door prize I won so that you can order one and sit on your behind eating a pint of ice cream in style and with no shame!





Okay, everyone needs an ice cream cozy!

It would have been more awesome if I had been able to actually find a pint of Schweddy Balls so I could take my own picture for this post. Well, and so I could eat it too! Schweddy Balls are apparently hard to find around here…
Bet you’re the first one in your neighborhood to have one ! ! But probably not the last!
Hahaha! LOVE Smelly Cat…I miss Friends.
Awesome prize though. And yes, I’d like to see you do a vlog.

What are they feeding you?
Smelly Cat, Smelly Cat
It’s not your fault.
And now, in honor of my inability to actually locate a pint of Schweddy Balls:
Schweddy Balls, Schweddy Balls
Where are they hiding you?
Schweddy Balls, Schweddy Balls
Is it Ben or Jerry’s fault?
Christi!

I’m glad you like it Tara! I had a lot of fun with this one and I just couldn’t resist the opportunity to throw in some Schweddy Balls. I have to say, I’ve spent some time on your Etsy shop and I REALLY do like your stuff. You’re so creative!
OMG I was totally singing Smelly Cat in my head to this too!

It’s been stuck in my head all day now!
Oh my goodness – ice cream flavors have totally moved on and left me in the dust since I left the country!

The name “Schweddy Balls” came from a Saturday Night Live skit. It’s a big controversy here at the moment. Lots of stories in the news about angry moms wanting to boycott Ben & Jerry’s. Personally, I’m just appreciating it as an amusing blogging opportunity!
Ohmigosh, I so want an ice cream cozy! And why have I never heard of Schweddy Balls before??
Thank you for enlightening me on these two things!

Jennifer, do a google search – you can watch the SNL skit that it’s named after!
This is a fabulous prize. And I agree you need to start vlogging.
