Win Some Japanese Kit Kats, Egg Molds & Other Goodies

Want some free stuff? I have too many Kit Kats, cans of Pringles, Japanese egg molds and other goodies that are taking up too much space in one of my cabinets and two drawers!

On May 15th Pass the Chopsticks turned one year old, and to celebrate I'm holding a contest.

In April I posted about a contest to help me clear out the cabinet above the microwave. It was called the Contest Idea Contest, and the winner's (Kelsey from Canada) idea was to write a Haiku about Kit Kats. A Haiku is a Japanese style poem and I explain it below.

Submit your Haiku (by leaving a comment in this post) within the next 15 days.

Contest begins as soon as this is posted and closes two weeks from today - that'll be July 10th at 10 am JST, July 9th at 9 pm EST.

Winner will be announced the evening of July 11th (JST), so those you in the U.S. will see it the morning of the 11th. Be sure to check back for updates and the winning Haiku!

The definition for Haiku for this contest is as follows:
An original poem of 17 syllables in 3 lines written in the format of
-line 1 in 5 syllables,
-line 2 in 7 syllables, and
-line 3 in 5 syllables

-Keep it clean/family friendly language

-Entrants can be world wide
-No limit on entries

*As an added bonus, I'm going to have a drawing on July 11th. The names in the pot will be my followers. Right now there are 95, so become a follower and you'll automatically be entered! You'll see the Followers gadget in the side bar on the right side of the page and can add yourself there.

Ok, these are dorky, but it was fun anyway.

Kit Kats are delish
Never require and dish
Taste way better than fish.

Kit Kats are so grand
Even from a far off land
My favorite brand.

Swell, huh. LOL

Kit kats are the best
In my drawers there are no rest
Not so many is your test.

Talking is real cheap
When you have a kit kat there
Just give up the goods

Hi Katie,
My kids and I enjoy your show and tell video soooo much. I got to know you through Terri. Your finds in Japan are always of big help with my looking for something amazing to send my friends in USA. Thanks for sharing this good point of view. Please keep updating the good finds for us.

Kit-Kats are really great,
Seduce hubs with them is my fate,
With them as my bait.
