Another TiFaux giveaway has reached its conclusion and we have two winners to congratulate.
First of all, to refresh your memory, remember that this giveaway was of the new, special edition of 24’s first season. It’s chock full of extras and has a shiny metallic cover. Our contest this time was to name your vegetable. It didn’t start out that way, if you recall. I had posed a creative challenge to the TiFaux readership and the silence was deafening.
To be fair, though, I was just hoping that I’d have enough good stuff to put in a post so that I wouldn’t have to come up with something to write about. No such luck.
In any case, there are two winners of this giveaway. The winners were selected thusly: I wrote down all of the favorite vegetables of the entrants and sent them in an e-mail to my mom and my brother. I told them each to pick one. And that’s how I found the winners. (Strange side notes: No less than four people said asparagus, which is the only vegetable that got more than one vote. Two people said they wanted to choose kumquat, but that was a fruit.)
So, if you didn’t get picked it’s not my fault. Blame my family.
Winner number one is Mikey from Washington, D.C. He was the first person to write in with the answer of asparagus and my mom chose “asparagus #1″ from my list. Winner number two, chosen by my brother, is Joe from Maryland. Joe submitted bok choy. He is quite fancy.
In any case, congrats to our winners. Publicists, I’ll be your best friend if you keep doing giveaways with us.
Who else said k(c)umquat?! It’s the smallest citrus fruit! I learned that at quiz night.
I’ve been wondering what one can do with bok choy, since I see it at the grocery store all the time next to the broccoli. Any ideas, Winner Joe?
Bok choy: Salmon on a bed of bok choy and cabbage stir fried…I made some this weekend inspired by something I saw on Top Chef…or food network…I am not sure, but it was definitely from TV, so appropriate for a comment in TiFaux
Well, I was the other kumquat guy…it just sounds funny. And I’m the bok choy winner. Not fancy, don’t know what to do with it. Just picked something original. Thanks Dan’s brother. =)
Joe, we have to be best friends. That’s the only reason i picked kumquat too. And we can watch 24 together while we braid each other’s hair.
