Easter has been saved and the friendly little Easter Chick has been returned to his role helping the Easter Bunny.

Now I guess you would like to find out who was the hero and saved Easter. To my surprise there were 2 entries that came through to me withing seconds of each other. Given this I’ve opted to provide 2 first prize’s, it just wouldn’t be fair to reward one and not the the other.
I’d like to congratulate both Elke and Cailin for winning my first competition.
As for the prize well they will both be receiving a gift parcel in the mail filled with some awesome Australian treats, just like the ones you see below. Thank’s to everyone again, IÂ look forward to running a new competition for you all in the future.
oh man! What a delicious prize package!
Great job on the contest.

Thanks Adam. I had a lot of fun with it. Think I’ll have to run another one next year. Thanks again for being part of it.
What are “Musk Sticks” or do I want to know? Just based on appearances they look interesting….
Anyways thanks for including me in your contest! I just may not take that chick down. Great idea for a competition. You clearly put a lot of time and effort into it. Congrats to the two winners of those Musk Sticks and delicious chocolate goodness!

haha Suzy, Brooke will tell you that musk sticks are horrible but don’t mind her 🙂
Thanks for being a part of my competition, appreciated it. I had lots of fun so hope I can run another one next year.
DAMN! Hahahaha. Awesome competition Chris, I had way too much fun with it. Did you realize how competitive we were?! It got outta hand. I hope you do this again next year.

Candice I thought you guys were having some fun but did not realise you were that into it. So those couple of tweets I noticed were just the tip of the iceberg huh.
Oh, Tim Tams, I just finished a whole box of you and I want more. 🙂
Hey Alison. I so need to make room for tim tams in my backpack. They have to be instant friend making items for when I travel Europe.
Thanks for asking me to take part, and awesome swag those gals will get! 🙂

P.S. I was going to compete, hoping for vegemite, but I see none in the loot pic. If I had won, would you have given me vegemite exclusively? LOL 🙂
.-= Nomadic Chick´s last blog ..Gypsy Wednesday – Wandering Carol =-.
I would have given you vegemite for sure. I know Cailin will kill me if I send her some but I’m sure Elke won’t mind getting some 🙂
you sent me some didn’t you?! haha
Nicely done, mate! Grats to the winners 🙂

Thanks Wes, and thanks heaps for being a part of it. Without everyone being involved it would never had been as much fun.
Haha great package minus the musk 😉 I CANNOT WAIT for Cailin to try the musk sticks!!!!
Thanks for including me – you’re a peach!
.-= Brooke vs. the World´s last blog ..Australia & Italia Cultural Overlap Part 2: Aussie Space Invaders =-.
hehe, Brooke you and those musk sticks 🙂 I should have included a disclaimer that requires them to report back on what they liked and didn’t like lol.
Your welcome mate, I was glad you said yes to being a part of it.
i’m worried!!!!!!! haha
Chris, thanks for letting me be a part of your contest. Very cool idea! That’s some serious swag you’re sending out! Happy Easter! 🙂

Your welcome Pam. Half the fun was finding the questions on everybody’s blogs. You guys all have great blogs and are just great people.
Gee, Chris, this looks like it was a really clever contest! I wish I’d read about it sooner. I just discovered it minutes ago. I would have participated. Well, next time!

I’m sorry you didn’t know about it Sabina. It’s hard to get the word out to everybody I think. Defiantly think I’ll do it again next year so I’ll be sure to let you know when.
