It Pays To Twitter All Day

The other day I was moaning and groaning on twitter. I don't even remember what I said, but I'm sure it was some pregnancy-induced rant. You know how it goes......well, suddenly, this popped up on my twitter stream:

A few short days later my candle arrived. This is not your Mama's Glade candle, my friends. This looks like something you'd buy in a trendy boutique rather than your local Target or grocery store. Glade's new line is called The Fragrance Collection and features soy and soy-based candles and scented reed diffusers with enticing scents, inspired by nature. The candle I received was Currants and Acai, and let me tell you....pure bliss. Plus, it has three wicks, which I love!

Another day, one of my twitter friends (@PamperingBeki) sent out a tweet saying something along the lines of "first one to comment on my newest blog post wins!". I raced over to her blog and was actually first!! Look what she sent me...

That's my anniversary, in case you're wondering. Beki has a lot of really cute necklaces and other jewelery items in her Etsy shop, Pampering Beki. This was a new design she was playing with and I'm super thrilled that she was so generous and gave me one of my own!

I've made so many connections through twitter, it has honestly been the best thing for my blog...and my friendship base! If you're on twitter, send me a hello @give_me_a_latte. If you're not....why aren't you????

Wow, that's awesome! Those new Glade candles are cute. I think I have a coupon for one... :)

I was really hoping my BumGenius post on Twitter would get me some love...but I don't think the person Twittering as "BumGenius" is actually the company.
