Receta Celebration GIVE-AWAY!!!
What, you ask? Is it my birthday? No. My Blogaversary? No. A milestone post? No. Today is the first day I've been able to get myself out of bed! And THAT is worth celebrating! I've been sick, sick, sick...some kind of jungle ghombue...I'm sure there's a medical name for it but the doctor I saw today spoke little English and in his best Indonesian-American accent said I have "Bwranshialitis"; since I have NO voice I didn't ask for a clarification...the itis part was official enough for me. He gave me another round of antibiotics, plus inhalers, to the tune of $95, to say nothing about his bill! Say, just when does our new health care system take effect? So, I'm up and dressed with no where to go, unable to see anyone, and unable to really do much so I decided it's time for a giveaway. And this is what I've got for you!
The Hamilton Beach Hand Blender!
It's a beauty, isn't is? You know how I LOVE hand blenders - or immersion blenders - they are just amazing. It's the one kitchen gadget that really works and is worth it's weight in gold! I just couldn't be happy in the kitchen without one!
The Hamilton Beach Hand Blender comes with it's very own storage case and it includes a blending wand and a whisk! With two speeds and non-slip controls, you'll be able to blend up shakes/drinks right in your glass! And the soups...oh my, you just stick the blender right into the pan - no more transferring hot soup in batches to a counter-top blender! Making blended soups with a hand blender will make you a believer in a nano second!
To win this great prize, all you have to do is leave me ONE comment anytime between 1:30 pm today, Wednesday, PST and 5:00 on Friday, PST, telling me your best home remedy for any type of illness. I recently read that 1/4 cup of vinegar and a 1/4 cup of honey mixed together and taken by the tablespoon every 4 hours is a great remedy for a sore throat...whatever! I tried it and basically burned my already sore throat so much that now nothing fazes it! I'm going to sound like Bette Davis forever! I'll announce a winner Saturday morning. Thanks to my two new best friends, CSN and Cookware.com for donating this great prize! I'm going to sweeten the deal by throwing in this very fun cookbook - it has all of the recipes you grew up loving in it - plus it's a great read! Also included will be my new favorite whisk by Good Grips and a package of wooden spoons - plus the chefs hat! I don't know about you but I feel SO much better right now - writing about this giveaway has given me new life...if only I didn't have a "produckteed" cough, as my doctor said, (and then he asked something about "color" but I'll not go there)...leave me a comment telling me your best home remedy for ANY illness...I'm sure it will be better than the advice I got today...and cheaper too! P.S. If you blog about this and tell me I'll give you another FIVE entires!
