Sweet Treats Thursday & Giveaways

Welcome to a super exciting Sweet Treats Thursday! It's a giveaway party today, so I hope you're ready to comment like crazy!

You'll have to be a little patient today, I've got a lot of text before the actual party begins, but it's all worth it, so keep on reading...

Today's giveaway is extra special because I've got TWO different giveaways!

The main event(s) here today are THREE certificates for Lovin' Scoopful Light Ice Cream-- which I completely {heart}. A LOT. Have you ever had it? It's unbelievable. Seriously. I could write an entire blog post about this ice cream.

And because I can feel myself wanting badly to ramble on and on about this ice cream, I'm going to have to list a few of my favorite things about this ice cream in bullet points (trust me, I'm sparing you):

  • D.E.L.I.C.I.O.U.S. and LOW FAT! (did you hear me?? LOW FAT!)
  • They have a billion flavors. Well, 13. And they are ALL so good.
  • I think their website is fantastic.
  • Out Of This World Chocolate is my favorite ice cream of all time.

Here's the deal on this giveaway:

  1. It's open to Texas and Utah residents only.
  2. You can earn entries by: 
    1. "Liking" Lovin' Scoopful on Facebook  
    2. Visiting their site and telling me which flavor looks the most enticing to you
    3. Following Something Swanky on GFC 
    4. Stumbling or Pinning any Something Swanky Post. 
Leave me a SEPARATE COMMENT for each of these and you'll receive up to 4 entries for completing them! {if you already follow Something Swanky, just say so}. I will randomly select and contact 3 winners on Monday morning. Certificates are for a free 56 oz. container of Lovin' Scoopful Light Ice Cream. I have received no compensation for this giveaway.

Now what to do with the rest of you who live don't live in Texas or Utah...


How about an exclusive Something Swanky giveaway??

Extreme Moose Munch!!
If you didn't catch my Moose Munch Post yesterday, check it out here. And I totally made a batch tonight (complete with M&Ms, Ghiradelli Chocolate, and a white chocolate drizzle) for the express purpose of mailing it to YOU!

Entries are pretty simple. Receive one entry into the giveaway by doing each of these:
  1. Follow Something Swanky on GFC
  2. Tweet about this giveaway (and tag @somethingswanky)
  3. Stumble or Pin any Something Swanky post
  4. Mention Something Swanky in your FB status today!
Please leave me a comment for each item you complete and you will receive up to 4 entries. This portion of the giveaway will only last for one day!!! Simply because I'd rather not mail you stale popcorn :) A winner will be randomly selected and contacted on Friday morning.

Alright, are you ready for a Link Party??

I think I can squeeze in one feature today... and truthfully, this is a super biased pick--not that it's any less worthy of being featured!-- I just think I should be honest about this:

I Bleed {BYU} Blue Cupcakes from Make Myself At Home!!
This weekend is the big rivalry game against Utah-- GO COUGS!
Thanks for linking up last week!

  45. I clicked on the Lovin' Scoopful web site and happily found they had it available at my local store! I'd never noticed it before but will certainly hunt it down now! I already know my first container purchase will be the Caramel Chocolate Heaven....that sounds shivery delicious!

  47. Your Frankenstein marshmallow pops are my FIRST PIN on Pinterest. I'm new to it and have moved slowly...good grief there is so much! I'm starting to think about Halloween baking (or non-baking as the case may be) and I'm so jealous that you met Bakerella. She's my hero.

  48. Last, but not least, I friended them on FB. Saw they had an in-store coupon too...woo hoo! Bet I'll have a container in my freezer before the end of the day.

    And, last LAST, but not least... I added my Braided Vanilla Bean Cinnamon Bread to the linky party. Thanks, as always, for keeping up with such a great linky...I love to click on all the desserts!

  49. I. LOVE. LOVIN. SCOOPFUL. The "What the Fudge" is my all time favorite!

I so appreciate my readers and all of your comments make me smile! I do my very best to respond to questions in a timely manner, but I don't always get to respond to every comment. Bummer.

I'm very supportive of blogger-networking, and you are welcome to leave links back to your own blog or link party!

Thanks for stopping by, xo
