And YOU get a Brownie! And YOU get a Brownie!

Guys. Serious news here. Know how the other day I mentioned the contest I'm doing with the greatest website about wanting to go to the zoo with Roy Halladay? Tomorrow's the last day to get your entry in. But I know not all of you are Phillies fans, or MS Paint Picassos. And I decided that it was really unfair to leave you guys out. (And I'm going to be going to the post office this week anyways, so it's no extra work for me.) 

So I'm going to be giving away a brownie each to 2 of you lucky readers. (2?! Better Odds?! Zoinks!)

And not just any brownies. Animal shaped brownies. 



I just got my hands on a MEGA BUCKET of animal cookie cutters. There's 50 of them in there. Including an Octopus. An OCTOPUS, people. And a squirrel. My mind is spinning with all of the ridiculous snacks I'll be making with these. I plan on making cookies, and cutting brownies, and I'll probably use them to make silly shaped sandwiches. I might start making lunch for Ken just so I can make him dinosaur shaped sandwiches that all the doods at work will envy. For realsies. 

But as for you, all you have to do is leave a comment telling me your favorite animal, and whether or not you're vegan. (I'm making both vegan and non-vegan brownies this week, so I'll need to know which to send you.) THAT'S IT. Simple, right? This contest will have a quick turnaround too. I'll be closing entries at the end of the day on this Wednesday May 12, 2010 and posting the winner and shipping the next day. Tell your friends!

    My life has meant nothing until presented the opportunity to eat an octopus-shaped brownie.

    And I have a hamburger blog, so... you know. Not vegan.

    I'm a bunny and my favorite bolg is ZWR!! Nice to meet you @ the game the other day Colleen. I was the goon in the ZWR shirt. I will be pursuing your vegan delights in the future (man, that sounded creepy. ohwell)

    Could you get any cuter? I think not.

    I'm pretty much abstaining from participating in this giveaway, not only because I get to eat your delicious baked goods more frequently than other people (who don't, for example, belong to a Picnicing Society with you) but also because I simply cannot choose an animal to call my favorite. However. If you are willing to accept "I love all teh animals!" as an answer, then I will continue on to tell you that, as you know, I am not vegan but I am very much vegan-friendly.

    P.S. As a newly-hired member of your Product Development team, I would like to suggest utilizing the Mega Bucket of Animal Cookie Cutters on the wedding cake that you've been commissioned to bake. Particularly if the Mega Bucket includes kitties, baby lambs, or chickens. Just a thought.

    I am not a vegan, and I am a big fan of brownies. My favorite animal at the moment is an Oryx (blame Namibia) though leopards and giraffes are high on the list as well. However, my favorite animal for a brownie is whichever one is biggest! Maybe a whale or an elephant... who knows!

    Also, I like nothing better than mailed desserts. Had a friend mail cupcakes from CA to NY once, and just this week got a box of gourmet ice cream from Ohio. My love for sweets knows no geographic boundaries.

    OMG. Brownies? Sign me up! I have been dying to sample your treats and don't want to wait until PrimeTime. My favorite animal for a brownie would be a cow (because I eat so many I feel like a fatty afterwards), but my darling little helper would probably appreciate a brownie in the shape of a dinosaur or the octopus, because we're all about the sea creatures :)

    I'm always up for a brownie, and I've been drooling over all your pictures of baked goods :) Everything looks delicious!

    I'm not a vegan and I would LOVE a flamingo brownie :)

    An octopus is actually my power animal. And brownies are just friggin amazing. Vegan pul-ease. The shear awesomness of this potential snack will overshadown the unlpleasantries of gluten :)
