Guess what I forgot to do on Friday…
What do you think it was?
I forgot to pick a winner for the Temptation of the Night Jasmine giveaway! I’m blaming Friday the 13th for my slip-up. But at any rate, we have a winner – it’s Erin. Congratulations, Erin! Email your address to ashley.pinkforallseasons@gmail.com and I will get your prize in the mail to you.
Since I bungled last week’s giveaway, I’m going to run another one today. Lauren is celebrating a Decade of Pink over on her website, so there has been a lot of talk about The Scarlet Pimpernel. Have you read it? If you haven’t, here is your chance!
I am giving away a Dover edition of the book to a commenter on today’s post. To enter yourself to win, do two things:
- Comment below.
- Tell me what your colorful flowery spy name would be if you were whisking aristocrats away from Madame Guillotine alongside Richard and Sir Percy!
I’ll pick a winner on Friday of this week – no really, I promise.
Happy Monday!
The Ice Violet!
Enjoying this months blogs! 🙂
Thanks, Susan (or should I say “Ice Violet”??)! Betty is doing a great job.
Love this! This book has been on my TBR list forever it feels like. The Shy Gladiolus
Oooh, intriguing!
If I were a spy I’d want to be the Daring Daffodil!! I know that sounds silly, but Daffodils have always been my favorite flower and I like alliteration. :p
I think you and Lauren have the alliterative fondness in common 🙂
The Coral Chrysanthemum! (Say That Name 5 times fast!)
That IS a tongue-twister. It would definitely throw off Delaroche’s game…
I’d have to go with the Tiger Lily, not sure why, it just appeals to me.
I’m with you, Sarah. I love tiger lilies.
I have to say of all the old books that I’ve read, I haven’t yet read The Scarlet Pimpernel. I have seen several Movie/TV adaptations but never got around to reading the book.
I were to choose a flowery spy name it would have to be The Lavender Lily (though other options, just for giggles might be The Georgian Snow Rose, The Roving Rhododendron or The Perennial Peony)
More alliteration! Lauren will be pleased 🙂
How fun! I watched the movie for the first time this past year and I’ve been looking forward to reading the book! I think a sweet spy name would be The Tender Tulip. 🙂
Mine would be The White Gardenia – love the smell of gardenias.
