Welcome to the Rain Drops on Roses Giveaway Hop, hosted by Mama the Fox and Mom Does Reviews!

This hop gives me an earworm every single year.

Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens
Bright copper kettles and warm woolen mittens
Brown paper packages tied up with strings
These are a few of my favorite things…

Of course, the words are from “My Favorite Things”, one of many memorable songs in The Sound of Music. Now that I’ve passed the earworm on to you, hopefully it will leave me alone for another year!

But you shouldn’t feel like you’re “suffering” from that persistent tune in your head, as it’s the theme of this giveaway hop! As per usual, I’m giving away the usual Reading Reality hop prize of the winner’s choice of a $10 Amazon Gift Card or $10 in books. All you have to do is tell us what one of YOUR favorite things might be!

Welcome to the Rain Drops on Roses Giveaway Hop, hosted by Mama the Fox and Mom Does Reviews!

There certainly have been raindrops this week here in Atlanta, but there aren’t any roses – at least not yet – for them to fall on. Nor is that remotely the idea that comes to mind from the name of this hop.

That would be the song “My Favorite Things” from The Sound of Music. You know the song. It’s the one that begins “Rain drops on roses and whiskers on kittens…” Come to think of it, there may not be raindrops on roses yet, but there are ALWAYS whiskers on kittens around this house – even if those kittens are now full-grown and 15 pounds each.

And I’ve now passed my earworm to you in the hopes that I’ve shortened the duration that I will have to suffer with it. Not suffer, exactly, because it’s always been one of my favorite songs. But too much of a good thing is not always wonderful, and that’s certainly true with even the loveliest of earworms.

Hopefully, you won’t feel like you are suffering in vain, as this particular persistent melody is, after all, the theme of a giveaway hop. As per usual, I’m giving away the usual Reading Reality hop prize of the winner’s choice of a $10 Amazon Gift Card or $10 in books. All you have to do is tell us what one of YOUR favorite things might be!

Welcome to the Rain Drops on Roses Giveaway Hop, hosted by Mama the Fox!

I have an earworm from this hop, one I plan on sharing. That phrase “Rain Drops on Roses” is from The Sound of Music, specifically it’s the opening line for the song, “My Favorite Things.”

I’ve shared. Sorry, not sorry. The duration of an earworm is inversely proportional to the number of people it’s shared with. So the more of you who catch it, the shorter I’ll have to put up with it. At least that’s my hope – because damn they’re persistent!

Still, there’s a potential reward for you for having this particular rather charming song stuck in your head. As per usual, I’m giving away the usual Reading Reality hop prize of the winner’s choice of a $10 Amazon Gift Card or $10 in books. All you have to do is tell us what one of YOUR favorite things might be!
