65,000 Thanks You’s And A Bright & Shiny Giveaway!

by Stacy on September 25, 2011

I hit a major milestone this week and decided we should do something fun to celebrate! Something big! I thought I’d give away something bright and shiny and blue … 

In appreciation to the 65,000 of you who are now with me on Pinterest (you have no idea how humbled I am by this number), I’d like to say Thank You in the biggest way I know how. I’d like to give one of you an Ice Blue 5 Qt Kitchen Aid Mixer.

If you’re not on Pinterest yet and would like to be, just leave me a comment and I’ll shoot you an invite. And if you just aren’t interested in joining up, don’t fret I’ll have another giveaway going on next week as well. That ones for  KSW readers only and will help me celebrate my birthday!

To Enter to Win:

You must be following at least one of my boards on Pinterest (after all, it IS a Pinterest giveaway!) and you must tell me what you’d make with the mixer first if it were yours. I’m using a form to help me keep track of all the entires, so if you can please just tell me there no need to leave comments unless you just want too. You can tell me in your own words, leave me a link to the recipe or even a link to a pin of something you’ve been wanting to try – anything goes. Giveaway ends at midnight on Friday, Sept 30th.

If I won this, I would give it to my friend. She could use it more than me. I have a nice mixer, but would rather let my girlfriend use it since she doesn’t have one! Thanks! I am following your pinterest and linked up, too!

65,000 connections! O my Gosh, Stacy :) You’re a Pinterest champion! And, your boards are amazing. I love how you curate. I love Pinterest too but it keeps falling off my radar in the middle of a dozen other things to do. But, the time spent on it is worth it. There are so many awesome ideas, it’s unbelievable.

Congratulations dear. I will visit Pinterest now to check out your boards. Haven’t been on Pinterest for long now…

I follow you on Pinterest (Serena D’Cruze) and I would use it for my cake decorating certificate to make my fav so far – the chocolate buttermilk cupcake with cream cheese buttercream frosting *yummy*

I think that was all my entries :S They’re all on the form as well :)

My roommate and best friend was recently diagnosed with celiac. It’s an auto-immune disease that attacks any gluten in her system, so she can’t have anything like flour, wheat, pasta, bread, ect. It’s been a real struggle trying to cook and bake (which was her favorite thing to do). With a mixer, we could make a lot more gluten free things.

First this one: http://dolcettoconfections.blogspot.com/2011/07/chocolate-souffle-cake.html
