Well you guys had me a little bit worried there for a bit. I didn’t receive any entries for this contest all month until right before Christmas. I almost thought no one was going to enter but in the end we got a good amount of entries at pretty much the last minute so it’s all good. Thank you everyone for entering and a big congratulations to Carolyn. Your two Christmas kaomoji cookies have won you a Kaoiro kaomoji emoticons stamp! I’ll be sending you an email soon to coordinate getting you your prize. Here are Carolyn’s winning cookies:
