Probably more work for the moderator, so I can't really complain. Maybe next year? or will you have one for New Year also? maybe there's a coffee related holiday out there?

Choice of delight could result in one sponsor having their awards depleted faster than others (e.g., if "EspressoBiz" offers a very desirable Delight), but a "decline" option would allow you to return awards back to Santa's bag that you have no intention of using then trying again. I'll look into it next year.

The next "HB event" is in April (HB's third anniversary). We'll have a new twist on it than year's past (one and two). :wink:

In addition to thanking all the sponsors and staff at H-B for running the contest, I would like to say a big THANK YOU! to the folks at Great Infusions Co. for the Behmor 1600 coffee roaster I won in the contest. It arrived yesterday. :D

Now the wife says I can't open it until Christmas :shock:

Wow! I had no idea I entered that many times! ... I must confess that there were a few nights that I set my alarm to wake me up in the wee hours. :oops: I would shuffle to my computer, log on, copy, and paste; then I would groggily shuffle back to bed and dream of new grinders, roasters, and coffee!

It was a fun contest. Thanks to all!

Merry Christmas!

Definitely a big thanks! Unfortunately I was stuck in a class for the first week of it and only got one chance to enter (my problem, NOT the contests! :D ) BUT, the coffee from PT's is on it's way! Again, a BIG THANK YOU to Dan and the rest @ HB (not just for the contest, either!).

EDIT: OOOPS! Forgot to thank the SPONSORS as well! Sheesh (CRS, Can't Remember... Hmmm, what WAS that last word?).
