Giveaway Packages for Easter

I am sorry I never got the March Gift post up. I had one Celtic book and some St. Patrick day magnets to giveaway but I misplaced which computer the picture was on!  I was going to add another Irish related book.  Then I gave the magnets to a local group for last Saturday's St. Paddy event since I knew I could not get them mailed out in time for March 17.
Ah well - to make up for it I'll have four prizes for Easter. Three packages for US/Canada and one for International entries.

Now it is time to get the Easter Gift Post up before that gets here as fast as time is going by for me!

I have three little Easter packages for the US/Canadian entries:


Here they are in separate picutres:
#1 QUACK the DUCKY 
(who quacks when you push the patch on his chest!)
with a candle, a dish towel and treats

#2 MISSY BUNNY (a cute old fashion look!)
with a ceramic bunny house decoration that opens,
Easter window decals/stickers and treats

and #3 CARROT BUNNY (so soft and plump)
with a bunny bell, a dish cloth and treats


To enter you must comment telling me if you have any special Easter tradition.  Or if you do not celebrate Easter but some other celebration at this time of year tell me what tradition you have for that.

US/Canada entries may enter by telling me whether you want #1, #2 or #3.  You may enter for all three but you will only be allowed to win one package.

International visitors are entering for a chance to win a gift certificate of your bookstore choice for $8.00.

Okay- I hope those rules are all clear.
The giveaway will run until 10pm Central March 28.  Hopefully that will allow the packages to arrive near Easter!!

Hurry to enter A Great Follow Giveaway at Storywings!

I thought I had posted about this one last month but I don't see it. Hurry because this great giveaway - lots of wonderful books with multiple winners - ends March 19!

Martha's March Movie Madness - Contest!

My family and I have this habit of picking up lines from movies.  So today is Martha's March Movie Madness!  Your goal, *should you chose to accept it *, is to identify the ten (10) movies the quotes came from.  So we do not give away the answers PLEASE DO NOT ANSWER HERE but e-mail me your answers at mesreads@gmail.com. 

I will do a drawing from all entries that get ALL of them correct and I will do a second drawing from all OTHER entries.  So even if you miss a few you will still have a chance.
The winner with ALL correct answers will get to choose a book or $5.00 gift card from the Friday Pick books AND a credit of $5.00 for a book from eTreasures Publishing.  
The winner from the other entries will get to choose a book or $5.00 gift card from the Friday Pick books.

1.  "They never call, they never write."

2.  "We'll do that!"

3.  "100% pure old fashioned homegrown."

4.  "Don't worry. I've done this before...once."

5.  "We're sending someone in to negotiate."

6.  "I'd die for you."

7.  "She's in good hands."

8.  "The secret's in the sauce."

9.  " What am I supposed to do? Walk around with their little corpses stuck to my finger nails?"

10.  "And Winter slumbering in the open air,
Wears on his smiling face a dream of Spring!"  ***  I liked this so much I looked up the full poem:
 
"All Nature seems at work. Slugs leave their lair- The bees are stirring - birds are on the wing - And Winter slumbering in the open air, Wears on his smiling face a dream of Spring!"And I the while, the sole unbusy thing, Nor honey make, nor pair, nor build, nor sing."
Samuel Taylor Coleridge,
Work Without Hope


*Bonus - what movie is *that phrase* (in the third line of this post) from?

Please comment here to let me know you sent an entry and for extra fun when you comment tell me one of YOUR favorite movie quotes and I'll try to guess the movie!
I will pick winners Thursday night at 10 pm central and announce them on Friday.

There is no way to keep people from searching quotes online. AND I know that if it were me I would be trying to search the answers!! I am thinking - hoping - one of these might really get you stumped! *BG*
I'll check answers and if everyone gets stumped by the same question I may add hints if it looks like its needed and I may extend the deadline.  That means I will allow updated answers so check back Wednesday and Thursday to see if I have added hints.

I have used a similar but shorter list for fun at the (SaSR) Sweet and Sensual Romance Tuesday R&R. They have to name the character and movie or show for five quotes.
