    It’s the time of year you hear it’s more fun to give than to receive. I couldn’t agree more, so I decided to team up with eight other terrific bloggers to give away a Blendtec Designer 725 blender and a Twister jar.

    I have a Blendtec blender and love it. So I want to give a big thank you to Blendtec for sponsoring this giveaway. Here’s the info about the prizes:

    The Blendtec Designer 725 is truly the blender with a brain. Our exclusive SmartBlend technology senses and identifies potential problems that could interfere with the perfect blend-including loading errors, overheating, or air pockets – and then tells users how to fix them. Six preprogrammed custom cycles enable one-touch blending perfection: Smoothie, Salsa, Ice Cream, Whole Juice, Hot Soup, and Clean. The Designer 725 even suggests additional uses for each cycle so you know how to get the most from your blender.

    The Twister™ jar is designed to blend your thickest recipes, such as nut butters, hummus, baby food, dips, thick shakes, dressings and more! Best of all, the Twister jar is compatible with all Blendtec consumer blenders. To use the jar, simply add ingredients and twist the lid counter-clockwise while the blend cycle is running. This twisting motion forces the ingredients from the sides of the jar back into the blade, allowing you to achieve a perfect blend every time.

    Entering the giveaway is easy, just use the rafflecopter widget below.

      This is the second time I have tried to enter one of your giveaways for wonderful kitchen toys, and wasn’t able to get the “widget” to work. Would love to enter–discouraging and frustrating.
      Keep up with the good recipes, always enjoy.

        Sorry Kristina – that’s frustrating. Sometimes you just have to wait for the widget to fully load. Other times if you try using a different browser the widget will work. Please try again. Thanks for the sweet compliment!
