Betty Crocker Mixer Gift Basket Giveaway
By · May 05
Betty Crocker has put together an online cooking club called the Mixer to help you get inspired in the kitchen. The best part is that it is free, you just have to register. They have six fun webisodes to watch on topics from Kickin Chickin to Greens with Envy. Here is a little sample of what you will see in the online tutorials.
To help promote the Mixer, the great people at MyBlogSpark have offered me 1 Mixer Gift Basket to give away to one of my readers. The gift basket includes:
- A Betty Crocker Mixing Spoon
- A Spatula
- Measuring Spoons
- Measuring Cups
- A Whisk {a really nice one!}
- A Liquid Measuring Cup
- A Betty Crocker Magazine {the one I got was full of ways to dress up a cake mix and really good decorating tips. My daughters spent a long time picking out their next birthday cake. Hopefully mom can deliver!}
How Do You Win?
Leave a comment telling me what your favorite kitchen gadget is. My favorite would have to be my cheap plastic mixing spoons from Walmart. I am always melting them, but I hate using wooden spoons, so I could not live without them. A close second would be the new metal measuring cups that came with the gift basket. I always buy plastic ones because they are cheaper, and the numbering always rubs off and you don’t know what size you are using!
For extra entries, do any of the following and then leave me a separate comment for each extra entry letting me know what you have done for extra entries.
- Follow me on Twitter and then Tweet about this giveaway.
- Subscribe to my blog, already a subscriber, just let me know.
- Blog about this giveaway and leave me a link to your post.
This giveaway is open from today, May 5th to Tuesday, May 12th at 1:00 pm, Pacific Time and is open to US residents only. Winner will be chosen using random.org. If the winner does not respond within 3 days, a new winner will be chosen. Good luck!

My favorite kitchen tool is my tupperwear chopper. Everything goes in the container and you just spin the handle and it’s all done! I use it for onions so I don’t have to cry.

I wouldn’t be too happy without my non-stick skillet. It’s the only good pan I have that food doesn’t stick to at all. It makes clean up a breeze!

I’m waiting for what will be my new favorite kitchen gadget – a new Kitchen Aid Pro 600 (in cinnamon gloss). I purchased it online Sunday…but it hasn’t shipped yet, : ( I’ve always wanted one and I’ll hopefully get it soon!!
Otherwise, I’d have to say a set of cheap plastic bowls that came with lids. Great for mixing stuff & homemade popcorn! Until I get my mixer….

Everyday I use this perfect little cutting board and every day I think of the sweet single woman who raised 6 children by her self in the 60’s with humility and dignity. I am thankful each day for her and her life example.
