First things first, Friday Foto Finish Fiesta with a little story to go along with it.
Hearts are not my thing, but I do have a very good reason that I failed to share with you. It's a sad story about a girl who o.d.'d on hearts. It is the mid 90's, oh I like this part....I was skinny and running a very high volume retail store. Think back to those days if you will, spiral perms on the way out and bangs were back. My store was the ground breaking, start of something new, something fabulous and super pink. It was no longer a Secret of Victoria's because everybody was gossiping about the new pull them up, push them together- sexy bras. It was also the start of Victoria's Secret Bath and Fragrance as a separate company . My gia-normus store was pink with dangling, sparkling, glimmering HearTs. I had to wear a pink smock with a heart on it. They fed us intravenously to pee pink. Seriously, it was hot flippen pink and I spent more than 60 hours a week there. When I went home at night I smelled like a pear and coughed up little pink fur balls...with hearts in them.
"I'm bringing hearts back, you other symbols don't no how to act"...(To the tune of I'm bringing Sexy back) That's right for the first time in years I made heart cookies, I bought heart candles and I am feeling hear-tab-u-lous.
Roll'en in the dough, oops I mean rolling the dough.....
The final product, some didn't make it (Taps sounding in the background) I took one for the team. (Actually, about 7...)
What about the 100th celebration? Honestly, when I started I wondered if I would ever make it to the 100th post.....YiPpY, I did!
Keeping with the 100 theme... 100 quarters= $25.00 Who wants to win $25.00 gift card? Well, than all you have to do to be a part of this gift-a-way is tell me where you would like a gift card from. One lucky winner! This gift-a-way will end Saturday, February 2ist.
As always, if you want to stalk me, I mean follow this blog you will receive an extra entry.
This Annonandon sponsored gift-a-way is open to my fellow Canadians as well as my fellow United States residence. (It depends on the time of the year where you'll find me.) Have fun and good luck.....
In case you haven't heard I am also hosting an "I Love Being Carded!" card swap... click HERE to get the details. Who doesn't like receiving "Good Mail"?

Congrats on getting to 100!! This was a very funny post! Love it!!
I feel bad for the cookies! :(
happy 100!
Bless you for ever working in lingerie. Bras and panties were NEVER meant to dangle from hangers. I still have nightmares about organizing that stuff. I digress.
I am already a stalk... cough...ahem, follower, so all I need to say is I would love a gift card to Target or Bath and Body or heck, I'll say it, VICTORIA'S SECRET! Actually, I am cool with just about anything. Thanks for the giveaway!
Happy 100! and welcome to my madness ;) I'd like an online card (we're plastic-free and jonesin for some online purchasing!!!) like Amazon.com or Paypal ;)
Love the cookies! Congratulations on your 100th post! What a great accomplishment:-)
Congrats on 100!! YAY! I would love a Target gift card. I would buy something nice for myself for once since I spend every penney that I have on bills and my son! LOL I'm already a stalker. ;-)
Happy 100!!!!!I am not even close to 100 yet. We love the "pink heart" store here.
Hey, I'm already a happy follower.
I would love love love a gift card from Target. Yeah, I'm so tame. But Target gets enough of our money anyway, so why not just a little more? :-)
Happy Valentine's Day!
Yeah, Congrats 100th! I really should have done something, maybe when I hit one year :).
Well if I was being all about mom it would be $25 to a pedi, since these feet are looking scary. Yup they stay in socks all winter long, don't need a toe accident when I kick DH and leaving some scar ... LOL
But then super mom comes in and thinks ohhh Target gift card, you could get laundry soap ... yup I know that sounds like sooo much fun! Ahh the mind of a mom gone nuts!
I proudly stalk you, well I guess I'm not that good of a stalker if I announce it. Guess I need to work on that ... LOL
I am an entertained new "stalker" to you... Happy VDay tomorrow. And since you mentioned it... TARGET is a super store. :) Thanks for stopping by OurRitzyLife.
I like your idea of 100th post... I think I missed mine, but my 1 year Bloggoversary is coming up!

You are just too cute in your profile pic! I followed your blog as soon as I got here.
Congrats on your 100th post! I'm not picky I would take a gift card from pretty much anywhere. Like I just went to Bed, Bath and Beyond for the first time today. Target, Marshalls, Old Navy, Amazon, Sephora, Vicki's Secret. It's all good. ;)
Whoo Hoo!!! Congrats on 100! I'd say a gift card to amazon or itunes because I am a music downloading junkie.
Oh, I'm so following you too. Anyone who makes those heart sugar cookies for Valentine's Day I need to follow/stalk

thanks for the heads up on your give away! happy 100!! I think I'm approaching 600...wow!
I'd love a gift card for Victoria's secret...then I'd for sure spend it on me & not on something for the kids.
Congrats on 100th!!!! that's quite an accomplishment...I am a follower as well.

Happy 100 :) and happy Valentine's Day!!!
I could use a gift card from almost anywhere!! I suppose right now we could use a card for Wegman's (that's our grocery store) or Walmart.
I already stalk - I mean follow. :)

I would like a gift card to Paper Source, Amazon, iTunes, Barnes and Noble, Cafe Rio, or Target. How about that?
Happy 100 posts!
Great job on the cookies!
I'd take a gift card from anywhere!
Happy 100th post! What a cool giveaway! Let's see....a free $25 gift cert from anywhere is cool...but to pick? Hmmm...I would say Amazon or Starbucks....either of those would get the most use. :)
Have a great weekend!
OH.....I'm a follower now! ;)

On the card thing, I think I could use 25 at Starbucks easily. It would not be a problem at all. Really. :)
Happy 100! I started following you today, too. :)
I'd love a gift card to Target - I need to start finding good cards for the card swap and Target is one of my favorite places for such items!
Congrats on your 100th post! You had me at "I smelled like pears and coughed up little pink fur balls with hearts on them"! How is it I haven't found your blog before now?!! You're Awesome! Lovely to meet you!

Happy Hundred Posts!
I just hit the milestone recently myself.
As far as gift cards - I would love a book store or Target - I love them both.
(my word verification is kroofest - seriously...what does that mean?)
first of all that story about the store and coughing up pink killed me. VERY funny!
i would LOVE a gift card to Target. I think about getting a Target gift card all. the. time. Not kidding. I go to my mailbox everyday expecting one because over a year ago I won one in a bloggy giveaway and i STILL haven't gotten it. Do you think it is time to give up?! ;)
100th post! Woot Woot! I'm so glad you swung by and said hi, because after reading just one (hillarious) post, you are now a blog I will follow (and not just for the extra entry!).
Congrats on the 100th post!! Happy Vday!
Congratulations on the 100th post!! Funny one at that! When you wrote "to the tune of I'm Bringing Sexy Back", of course I started the sentence over, singing it!
Gift Card.....I would love to say Target, but sadly I now live in a town that is more than an hour away from the nearest Target! The nerve of this town!
I guess it would be Walmart!
congrats on the 100 posts!!! I would love an amazon card!
Happy 100! I would like a gift card to Wal-mart.
I'm a follower.
Happy 100th!!
Happy Valentines Day! Thanks for welcoming me to SITS!!! I would love a Target gift card so I can buy some cute stuff for my bundle of joy coming soon!
I came over to thank you for welcoming me to SiTS. I appreciate the kind words... But then I read about your 100th post!! Congratulations.
Here's to 100 more!
Oh you are so cute! I just read one of your comments on Mommarazzi's blog and had to come by. Glad I did! Your heart cookies are too cute and thanks for taking one for the team, it's always nice to find a team player!
And as for your pink heart lingerie shop, as long as you didn't start pooping little pink hearts I think you'll be fine!
So I'm going to go along with what most people are asking and go for a gift card at Target! What can't you find at Target? They've got everything!
Thanks!
First of all, congrats on your Veggie Pop'rs win!
Second, I love GCs, and I like to shop anywhere - online, in stores, at restaurants.... Hmmm... Target is great (like everyone else already said)... Oooh, a Shutterfly or Snapfish GC would be wonderful! And I already follow you.
Congrats on your 100th post. Just got me thinking - I have no idea how many posts I have on my blog. I guess I'll have to count - lol! I'd love a gift card to Target (I can buy some diapers or treats) :)
I stalk (I mean follow) your blog - lol :)
Ok, I totally don't know why I haven't been a follower since the first time we "met". I love it over here!!
And now...I am a follower!
Congrats on your 100th post! My choices would definitely be Starbucks or Sephora!
hi there! congrats on your 100th post! i'm your MAMARAZZI swap buddy! i just wanted to check on your exact address, because i got sent TWO!!!
A Target gift card would rock my socks! I already stalk you ;)
congrats on your 100th post and on your fight against cancer! thanks for the cake compliments too! anytime i have extra money i of course truck on over to hobby lobby or michaels for anything cakey or crafty! but money to spend anywhere is always a blast! my kids, of course, would love to spend 100 quarters on a carousel ride, over and over...
ok, i have to point out that the word verif. is "foops" and that just sounds really funny to me right now. :)
As a fellow retail manager, I know the hell you describe. I'm happy you can now look at hearts without having palpitations!
Happy 100th post!
I'm a follower now, too.
Oh, forgot to mention, but I'd like a WalMart gift card.
Congrats on your 100th post! The cookies looks YUMMY!
Stopping by from MBC...
A gift card to CVS would be the ticket...
I could shop til I drop and still shop for more!
thank you for the giveaway, too.

Happy 100th! I would love a Starbucks giftcard.
I think the cookies turned out great-- much better than mine would have. haha
I joined SITS earlier in the week. I noticed your badge. I am commenting in roll call and on the featured blog, but haven't had a whole lot of comments otherwise. Just thought I would say hi since I surfed in to see what you got for the V-Day swap at An Island Life. :)
Happy 100TH! Amazon would be my pick.
100 posts already! Way to go, Ann!
I love heart sugar cookies. There are always some casualties, you just have to eat them.
Who doesn't love gift cards? Anywhere will do!
What a great giveaway! Congrats on 100 posts. I'd love a Starbucks giftcard.

I am so glad you told me to stop by. I too worked retail in the 90's
More home decor than lingerie, but at least I got to be part of the let's get the blue geese out of the kitchen movement! I would love to be a part of your giveaway. I would have to say Micheal's or Joann's for the gift card. I am now a faithful follower.
Congrats on getting to 100! hank for stopping by my blog today and reading my mom's story. I'm glad to hear you are doing well today!

רציתי לשתף אותכם בחוויה אשר עברתי לאחר הפיגוע בדולפינריום. במשך שנתיים לאחר המקרה, הרגשתי מדוכאת, חסרת שמחת חיים, עייפה ומדוכדכת. עם טיפולים רפואיים רגילים לא יכולתי להשתקם ולכן פניתי ל- [b][url=http://www.maker.co.il/3_15707/%D7%9E%D7%90%D7%9E%D7%A8/%D7%9B%D7%9C-%D7%94%D7%A2%D7%95%D7%91%D7%93%D7%95%D7%AA-%D7%A2%D7%9C-%D7%A0%D7%A4%D7%A9-%D7%94%D7%90%D7%93%D7%9D-%D7%95%D7%A2%D7%99%D7%A1%D7%95%D7%99-%D7%A8%D7%A4%D7%95%D7%90%D7%99-(%D7%9E%D7%A1%D7%90%D7%92%60).html]עיסוי[/url][/b] רפואי אלטרנטיבי. המליצו לי על מעסה מקצועי מ-Spa-Vip.co.il - עיסוי עד הבית, אשר מכיל מסאג שוודי מפנק במיוחד אשר עורר לי את החושים תוך טיפול אחד בלבד. אני לא יכלה להמחיש את השינוי שעברתי, אפילו אחרי טיפול מסאג איורוודה ראשוני, הרגשתי נפלא, פיזרתי את השיער ויצאתי מה- [b][url=http://www.academics.co.il/Articles/Article12945.aspx]מסאג[/url][/b]' עם כוחות חדשים, מחויכת ומוכנה להמשך.
