Look at it! Would I really want to win that. I reluctantly paid my money and wrote down my guess - a suitably ridiculous high number that would surely put me out of the running.
Then I watched as others held the jar and slowly revolved it while trying to count. Still others attempted to calculate from weight. Others took a great stab in the dark. The manager in charge remained impassive while telling everyone that one guess was really close.
Lovely, I thought. Not me. My guess is totally unrealistic.
Then after lunch this email appeared
Yes!! I won the jar. Others will have to eat it and already I have lots of " close friends" calling by my desk :-)

I wouldn't want the lollies either, but that looks like a great jar for your crafty bits. I have 3 very similar in green and am looking for some in a pinky wine colour now.
Spoken like a true crafter, Sandra! I am sure you are very popular at work now Margaret.
Your guess was very close Margaret, isn't it typical though that it was a prize that you didn't really want.
Dear Margaret, I've been reading your blog for years...
I've never laughed as hard / loudly at one of your posts. You sound exactly LIKE ME!
The love you and your Sweet Mother to bits!
