Happy Birthday Summer Is A Verb

Today is Summer is a Verb's birthday and in celebration I'm hosting a blog scavenger hunt of sorts...


Rules:

- Must answer all 5 questions correctly to be entered
- One correct entry per person
- Hunt is open to everyone including family, friends, girls AND guys
- All answers can be found within the past year's posts
- Deadline for entry is 11pm Wednesday March 24th
- Prize will be announced at drawing but, trust me, it will be nice
- There will only be one winner
- Send entries to summerisaverb@gmail.com along with name and email

- I will only send reply emails to entries with all 5 correct answers

1. What is the name given to the full moon in March?
2. Which Southern state do Emma and Hilary go to school in?
3. Name one of Babe's favorite casseroles.
4. Who do I refer to as the "illustrator to the bloggeratti"?
5. What french brand beach towel do I lust after?

Good luck!!!

*Pretty pink mini cake from here.

Kindness of all my loyal followers and readers from the past year. I am so appreciative of my new friends, old friends, family and "lurking in the shadows" support. And, most especially Babe, the boys and the rest of my cast of reoccurring characters, without whom I'd be quite boring I'm sure...XXOO

  12. Happy Happy Happy Birthday :) SiV is a thrill to read each and every day!

    I have to say that it's kind of sad that I knew all 5 off the top of my head- to be fair- the namesake of the fav' casserole is also my name, so that was easy enough to remember!

    popping you an email in a sec!

  14. Firts of all, thank you for all the kind comments and emails. I feel like I'm the winner. Also, please don't be shy about entering. When I said "everyone's" eligable, I meant everyone. My firends and my family were the first outta the gate to support me so darn right they can win. And, lastly my lil peeps, let's try and refrain from letting anymore answers slip out so those serial contest sweepers don't get a leg up...XXOO

  28. Happy blog-a-versary! I have so enjoyed reading your blog. You are my first stop every morning and sometimes I stay way too long stalking all your informative posts. I even have a Summer Is A Verb's Repertoire Essentials wish list in my fashion notebook ;). So far I have checked off as purchased; Rainbow flip flops, Pink Elephant PJs, Kiehl ~ Creme De Corps lotion and Olive Oil hair products, Kerastase Mousse, JCrew Pixie Pants, and the Canoe sunglasses. Love your style and thought you might get a kick out of knowing that you have a devoted follower.
    xoxo

    Not sure what this says, but knew all the answers without having to dig around in old posts, so without further ado, email sent.
