Last night was "super fun!" (I do love Reese Witherspoon's Elle Woods in Legally Blonde.) So we'll play again next Tuesday night but for a shorter time. Stay tuned for more info. Here are the details on what went on this week:
No one wants to play Scene It? The Twilight Saga with me around here. I also fell victim to my OCD* and bought way too many Twilight Eclipse boxed Valentines, Hallmark cards and Valentine candies. So let's play Twilight Trivia on Twitter! This Tuesday, February 8, 5-9p.m. MT (7-11 ET). Here's how to play:
I'll Tweet a trivia question. Some may include a link to a photo or very short audio or video clip.
Hit "reply" and type your answer.
First person to reply with the correct answer wins the prize.
This Tuesday's theme is "Everything Eclipse:" The books (The Short Second Life of Bree Tanner: an Eclipse Novella is included), the movie and the music.
Congratulations to @puddinPOP07, chosen by random to win the Show Me the Love Twilight Eclipse Chocolate, Card and Magazine Giveaway.

Cap'n Twirate swiped my credit card and went shopping. Stupid, unreliable, vampire pirate! Now I have all these boxes of Eclipse valentine chocolates, Eclipse valentines with stickers, Entertainment Weekly's with the Breaking Dawn honeymoon photo and Hallmark cards, including the one with the sound of Edward and Jacob. Then there's the Eclipse gum and I don't even like mint. What to do? Give it away, of course. Random drawing per each time period (or until 100 entries are reached), two ways to enter per cycle.
The winner of each cycle will get:
1 box Skybar Eclipse Valentine Chocolates
1 box of 32 Eclipse Valentines with stickers
2 Hallmark Eclipse Valentines
1 Entertainment Weekly
1 package Eclipse Twilight-edition gum
Why "Show Me the Love"? Because of Alice, of course. It's her line in New Moon when she takes a photo of Edward and Bella. Also, Alice is the photo for February in my Twilight Eclipse calendar.
Here's a slideshow with detailed photos of each item and a video that has the sound of the card:
