I Didn't Believe It Either

So, guess who won the Enjoy Life Sweepstakes?



Seriously. It was me.
I'm still at a loss for words, which for me is an unnatural state of affairs. Just completely dumbfounded. Absolutely gobsmacked. (Not to mention drop through the floor mortified when I received the news not long after this whiny post. Oops.)
My whirlwind trip to Illinois takes place this week, and you can follow along with the fun on Tuesday by way of Enjoy Life's Facebook page. I'll be touring the factory, baking in the test kitchen with Betsy Laakso, one of the authors of Cookies for Everyone, and having lunch with CEO Scott Mandell.
That's right, I'm going to a chocolate factory run by the incredible people that make safe food for my son. And they're letting me play in the kitchen with a pro, which is kind of like someone from Little League getting to practice with the Majors. Did someone read my diary? I'm still not convinced that I'm not being punked!
If you have any questions or messages you'd like me to take with me to the Enjoy Life headquarters/test kitchen/bat cave, leave them in the comments. I'll pass them along if I can stop stuttering.
