One of which happens to be my handy dandy Microplane Zester.
I love my Microplane Zester. I use it for all sorts of recipes. I don't think I could survive without it in my kitchen. We are on a first name basis. That's what kind of relationship we have. My husband actually makes fun of me because I insist on using its full name. Microplane Zester. Not just zester. No, no, no my dear friends. Call me crazy (or don't), but I love this little guy.
I actually had a friend tell me a few weeks back that she went and bought herself one of these bad boys because "all real cooks have them", and she wanted to feel like a real cook. I applaud her.
But seriously, here's the real question... Would you like one of these lovely little pretties to be used in your kitchen? Well since I'm feeling generous (and couldn't wait until our 1 year anniversary of this here blog!), I'm giving one away!

ReplyDeleteI love this blob. That's right. I picked up on the fact that you called it a blob. And, I made the white chicken chili. In fact, I am the one who inspired you to put it up on this here blob. Everyone was so impressed and I have directed others to this site. That's right. I am now into marketing! Keep the recipes a rollin!
ReplyDeleteI've made a few of your recipes. I really liked the Chicken Spaghetti and Chicken Cordon Bleu Casserole. I like that they were easy, tasty and realistic. I like to cook but with basic ingredients. No strange spices I'll use one time and spend an hour in the grocery store just trying to find. Thanks for all your goods!
ReplyDeleteI fixed it. It no longer says blob! Thanks Manda.
ReplyDeleteAnnalisa,
ReplyDeleteI am happy to leave a comment on your most attractively and deliciously done blog. I don't know what I would do with a "zester" but thought I would like to be in the drawing anyway...it sounds so...vogue right now!! Do you wear pearls?

ReplyDeletewhite chicken chili, banana bread, buttermilk waffles,almond loaf, Norwegian pancakes, coconut Indian curry, buttermilk squash lasagna, roaster red pepper sauce, crock pot chicken, salsa chicken, oven chimichangas, bbq pork, wild rice soup, caramel brownies, and lemon drop cookies. I am sure there are probably even more!
Ohh Annalisa! You told me you thought about doing a giveaway! NICE. Okay well as you already know, I am a total blog stalker. And check your personal one and your fabulous recipe one multiple times a day. It's quite ridiculous actually. I think you have my email address but here it is again... ashalston@hotmail.com
ReplyDelete(As for all your other folks reading, I hope not to see any emails from you :) )
Okay I did it! I became an official follower of this blog. What does that entail? Does that mean you can monitor how much I get on your blog? That would be embarrassing. Okay as for the recipe I have used... ohh the peanut butter SNICKER cookies. They were not as pretty as yours but man oh man they were DELICIOUS. A little piece of heaven! I am actually going grocery shopping today and your white chicken chili is on my shopping list. I will let you know it I butcher it or not :)
ReplyDeleteOh I am definitely in on this contest! Love this blog and refer to it all the time when cooking!

I am already a blob stalker. And I have made tons of recipes here. My most recent favorite is the "chili blanco" and the "cream cheese pound cake"
ReplyDeleteOh you know I love the cooking blog. It inspires me that one day I too could rise above feeding my family only Mac& Cheese and costco chicken nuggets!
ReplyDeleteSweet, now I follow you officially. Not just in a creepy non official way like I was doing before
ReplyDeleteI blog stalk this cooking blog. and I LOVE it! My fave so far has been the snickers cookies and the chocolate bundt cake with the chocolate frosting! (yes, I gravitate toward all the dessert recipes...but I have tried the dinner recipes too and they always turn out delish!)
ReplyDeleteYou have my e mail...but I leave it here again to officially seal my entry into the giveaway contest!

I want the pretty Microplane Zester. And if I win it, I promise to always call it by its full name: the Microplane Zester.
p.s. I am now also an official "follower" of this blog.
ReplyDeleteCrannie, Amanda told me about your blog and I have enjoyed browsing!! I would rather not leave my email address here, but I'm pretty sure you have it.
ReplyDeleteP.S. I made you white chicken chili JUST LAST NIGHT with my parents over for company. (Do I get bonus points for the recentness?) I also printed off your broccoli cheese soup recipe and intend to make it later this week. And pretty much every single dessert recipe I REALLY want to make.
ReplyDeleteUm, I have been a silent fan of your blog for WAY long now and secretly stalking you. Now, I have become a follower AND I'm leaving my email address to enter the drawing. Did I mention that I love Annalisa and always have! Miss you!!!
ReplyDeleteLove,

I Love Love Love that I came across your blog.
ReplyDeleteAfter looking at just the first recipe I started following you.
I've only been following for a few weeks but I have already made the White Chicken Chili, Honey Citrus Enchiladas (but I substituted with Pork) Aztec Chicken, Green Chili Pork last night and I plan on making the Rumbi Soup either tonight or tomorrow.
Without you, my family may have gone hungy. :-) dnamcinelly@gmail.com
Annalisa--
ReplyDeleteI have made--and devoured--the Grilled Pork with Balsamic Carmelized Pear dish...it stunk of the kitchen so much the kids literally fled!! but it was SOOO good. my address is lizcbrough@yahoo.com.
I have a few others I printed off that I'm going to cook (of the southwestern variety).
Love you,
Liz
I love reading your blog and getting great recipes. A microplane zester would be great to have.
