Jumi - My favorite Olympian event is ice dancing. Couples take full advantage of the opportunity to put on a good show. Routines, costumes, and personalities all combine to create a lively fun presentation.

Jean Della Vecchia - My favorite Olympic sport to watch is snowboarding. They are pretty amazing.

Marie - My favorite to watch is Curling and Ice Skating……both are intense to watch at least for me.

Erin Hansen - Hands down, hockey! Go team USA!

Trudie Lloyd - I love bobsled! That speeding down a track, barely in control in a tin can really gets me going.

Our question for Free Stuff Friday was: It’s almost Valentine’s day, so tell us about your first Valentine!

Typically we choose the winner of Free Stuff Friday by randomly selecting a winner, but this week our winner was chosen by a nomination from Viktoria because her story was sweet and inspiring.

The winning comment was from:

Vie - The one that stands out in my mind goes back many years. My hubby and I were going through a very hard time in our marriage. I did not know if we would make it to our next anniversary. On valentines day, I got up early for work, he was still sleeping. I left a card for him. When I got to my truck he had decorated it with ribbons and hearts and a big card inside that said HONEY BE MY VALENTINE PLEASE  and then it said in tiny, little letters (FAKE IT TILL WE MAKE IT). I looked up and he was standing there with a smile on and nothing else !! Well we lasted 27 years more..
