WC Spring Exchange!


Thank you, thank you, thank you Sara! I participated in the WC Spring Exchange, where foodies sign up to exchange 'care packages' with each other. It's conducted through Elfster, which means your assigned person can ask you questions and find out information about you anonymously, and you don't know who was assigned to send you a gift until you receive it!

Sara sent me an AWESOME care package:
- A ton of colorful, beautiful sprinkle options (I see cupcakes in my future so I can play with these!!)
- A cookbook from Washington state (I want to start collecting home-style cookbooks from all over the country...Sara sent me my first one from afar!)
- A super-handy packet of RealSimple recipe cards -- I can't wait to try some of them!
- And finally, a set of spatulas -- I don't know about you, but I seem to go through spatulas like crazy.

Thank you again Sara!

A Different Giveaway -- NonFood



When I signed up for myblogspark, I told the ladies I was interested in other things besides food. I mean, I love food, but my world doesn't COMPLETELY revolve around it or I'd be losing the battle at the gym every day.


In addition to food, I'm a bit of a car nut. I love cars, reading about them, looking at them, driving them. I stubbornly purchased another coupe (with a powerful engine) instead of buying something "practical" when my first car up and died on me. (It should probably be mentioned that my first car was a sports car too -- I sense a theme!)


In addition to cars in general, I'm a bit of a fiend for car products.


Rejex, for example, is god's gift to a beautiful car -- and with proper application, the stuff lasts SIX MONTHS! It's awesome, and it makes your car look like you've spent every single day working on it.


This giveaway, though, is focused around Rain-X. Rain-X makes a variety of products that are supposed to assist you in seeing better during precipitation -- be it rain, snow, sleet, or just the slap of that nasty brown gunk off the 18-wheeler in front of you.


Most of their products are sprays or treatments that you put on the glass -- and they all work. They help the moisture bead differently, so your wipers can whisk it away more efficiently.


It's really awesome stuff.


myblogspark provided me with a free set of Rain-X's new windshield wipers, and two of their glass care products (a pre-treatment, and then the customary Rain-X windshield cleaner/protectorant).


Admittedly, I was skeptical. These wiper blades are pricey to purchase. But come on -- they're wiper blades!


Oh, was I wrong. They're NOT just wiper blades. They're some kind of magical wiper-blade-from-the-future that whisks EVERY. OUNCE. of moisture out of my way, while NEVER SMEARING.


It's like having someone outside constantly wiping your windshield clean -- it's that awesome.


So even though you probably read this blog for food -- seriously, enter the contest. Even if you don't give a rat's butt about the quality of your windshield wipers, enter the contest.


Give them to your dad. Give them to your husband.


Heck, you could give them as a gift to any male you know and they'd most likely be thrilled.


But I secretly hope you keep them for yourself. :-) Express the car geek inside that you never knew you had!


Contest Details


Contest will end at 8:00 p.m. on March 25th, 2009. Winner will be chosen by Random Integer Generator.


Contest winnings include:


  • 1 set of Rain-X windshield wipers

  • 1 bottle of 2-in-1 Rain-X windshield cleaner and rain repellent

  • 1 bottle of Rain-X Extreme Clean - which helps remove residue, build-up, and road grime from your glass and headlights


If you're my winner, you must respond to me by March 26th with your car's year, make, and model (this is so you receive the wipers that fit the car you want to put them on...so if you are giving them away, make sure you give the right car!)


To enter, just leave me a comment...any comment, but if you need a topic, leave me a comment about something you enjoy that others would find surprising (like my love of cars).


Have fun!

Blog-i-versary Giveaway #2!



Yes, that's right -- TWO giveaways! WHEW! We're goin' crazy over here :-)

All winners will be chosen by Random.org

Giveaway entries must be received (by way of comments to this post) by Saturday, January 31, 2009.
Blog-i-versary Giveaway #2!

A locally produced cookbook

This cookbook purchase supported a Brethren Christian School in Lancaster, PA. This cookbook is similar to the ones you find at church fundraisers.

Personally, I ADORE these cookbooks -- they always include tried-and-true, your-family-WILL-eat-this style recipes.
This one is no different!



This cookbook is 266 pages, and is divided into the following sections: Soups, Salads, and Sauces; Main Dishes; Meats, Poultry, and Seafood; Vegetables; Bread and Breakfasts; Cakes and Pies; Cookies and Confections; Desserts; Beverages, Sandwiches and Miscellaneous; Canning and Freezing; Cooking for a Crowd.

Enjoy!









Blog-i-versary Giveaway #1!!

My blog-i-versary was last week (Wednesday) but due to new puppy, the giveaways celebrating it had to be pushed back!
But now they're here!
All winners will be chosen by Random.org

Giveaway entries must be received (by way of comments to this post) by Saturday, January 31, 2009.

Blog-i-versary Giveaway #1!
1 Free Box of the new "Create Your Own" Fruit Roll-Ups! (1 box contains 30 fruit roll-ups)



I received this wonderful giveaway from MyBlogSpark -- they were kind enough to provide me with a box, as well as a code so that YOU can design a box!

Now I know what you're thinking -- that the only people who could possibly have a use for 30 personalized Fruit Roll-ups are parents.


This, my friends, is not true.

My DH likes -- nay, he LOVES -- fruit rollups. The man takes them to work as part of his breakfast. I kid you not.

So I got him a box of Valentine's themed ones. But you can do ANYTHING -- you can put personalized messages, personalized pictures -- the sky's the limit!

Well, as long as you like Strawberry, that is. They only come in Strawberry. :-)
If you'd like more information, or to see what designs are available, go to http://www.myfruitrollups.com
Enjoy!
