Stop by her blog here to see what she got in her mail box from winnings!

Sniffle Sniffle..The bottle of Steak Sauce fell out of the box when I was moving it! Um yeah, steak sauce all over my tile floor. The grout sure did love to suck up all that lovely DARK BROWN sauce!!! It was a bitch to clean up!!!

The bottom BLEW right out of it!!!!


Exotic spices

A nice change of pace from Shake and Bake

I love finishing salts..and all of these smell heavenly!

  3. Hey Leslie,

    I would love to win a box of goodies, but I don’t know if you include non-US-residents? (I’m from The Netherlands, so shipping costst would be much higher I guess…)

  4. What a fabulous idea! I love it! My favorite food has to be tomatoes. I have yet to meet a tomato that I didn’t like! šŸ™‚

  8. Wow, lovely package!

  9. oh, baby, you SCORED! I love paying it forward. I bought a soap on Etsy that was 20 cents, and gave it away as part of a give away on my soap blog. I like this evern more. It’s more of an event!

    My favorite food?
    I love butter. Butter on lobster, shrimp, rice, pasta. I love Indian food. Wish there was a great Indian food restaurant here, but no chance. I think I love just about all different foods from different cultures.

    Pay if forward… lovin it.

  10. Oh, sorry about the steak sauce! Okay, if I win, I promise I won’t make you pay International Shipping. You can just ship it to my Mom and I’ll pick it up at Christmas. And if I win, please bless some one from Austraila enters so I don’t have to pay shipping!

    This is fun either way!

  11. oh what a nice package you got!

    Favourite food? Any kind of ice-cream! šŸ™‚

  13. Great package you received! Pick me!

    My favorite food is anything Italian. It is hard to pick one but I love pasta with seafood and lasagna.

  14. Iā€™m stoked and loving this idea. It looks like you received the mother load of shipments! For my entry I must say my favorite meal to cook may also be the easiest ā€“ POT ROAST! I love that I can dump the ingredients into a large roasting pan and three hours later my house smells so good, and the vegetables and meat have melded together and produced a lovely tasting meal!

    I hope I win, this would be so fun to pay it forward from my blog – http://www.homewithmandy.blogspot.com/
