First off, a welcome to all my new followers. I have had a few hectic days, but if I haven't followed you back yet, I'm going to catch up on that tonight.

I just wanted to remind everyone to leave a comment on my Wacky Wednesday Giveaway to be entered in the drawing for the set of Thirty-One Gifts tote and accessories. Leaving a comment will get you entered for one chance and if you post it anywhere on your blog or your Facebook page you can get another entry. Just let me know in your comment where you have posted a link. These are some awesome products and I can't wait for one of you to receive them. The giveaway for this gorgeous set of 31 products ends on August 5. It's a Organizing tote, thermal lunch tote, billfold and mini zipper pouch.

I also wanted to remind everyone about the wonderful dishes we made at my on-line Pampered Chef Party. Michele made us a delicious homemade pizza and a scrumptious Reese Cup Peanut Butter Brownie Trifle. Click the link to "attend" our On-line Pampered Chef Party. Pampered Chef orders can be placed through July 27th by visiting www.pamperedchef.biz/michelemaples. Be sure and enter your hostess as Brenda Keefer.


Here are a couple of my new favorite Pampered Chef items that I can't live without. Remember, it's never too early to start Christmas shopping. Many women love their kitchen gadgets and these make a wonderful addition to any cooks "tool box".
From left to right, #1107 Microplane Zester $14.00 - #1134 Zester Scorer $10.00 - #1642 All Purpose Spreader $4.50 - #2590 Easy Opener $5.00 - #2622 Mini Spatula $5.00 - #2685 Mix and Masher $10.50

I love all of these items but I am fascinated with the Easy Opener and the Mix and Masher the most. The easy opener fits perfectly on water bottle or soft drink bottles. I quick twist and the lid is off. I use it to recap my Pepsi bottles so I can tighten them and keep them from going flat. It also has a function that can pop a tab on a can with ease or can be inserted under jar lids (such as pickles) to release the vacuum and make them easy to open. The mix and masher is the best thing in the world for mashing up eggs for potato salad or egg salad, not to mention for making true mashed potatoes.

Hope everybody has a wonderful Wednesday.
