Lime Green and Yet Another Giveaway!!

by Nicole on August 17, 2010

So about a month ago (maybe longer), I won a CSN gift certificate from this sweet girl’s site. I was so freaking happy because I could use that to get the one appliance that I had been dreaming of for years in Germany with my 220 volt appliances.

My husband was frightened. Why was my husband frightened? Feast your eyes on THIS:

to enter the giveaway, click below!

hehe. A bright LIME GREEN KitchenAid mixer. I’m hispanic, and I like color okay? My very white non-latino hubs gets frightened whenever I order anything with color in it. Trust me, honey, it could be a whole lot worse with the bright colors. You could have married one of my cousins and have a house that looks like a circus, okay?

Anyway, this beauty mixes up everything under the sun plus I can order a butt load of attachments for it.  CSN has everything I could ever need for this baby plus different variations of the dutch oven, blenders, cutlery, bedding, bikes, whatever!

Tonight, I made some homemade gluten free pizza dough with my mixer and topped it with 1/2 mozzarella, 1/2 vegan cheese, tomatoes, mushrooms, caramelized onions, zucchini, with lots of organic marinara sauce topped with fresh basil after the photo :( . Perfect, eh?

I just realized this was also a good shot of my husband’s abs. hehe

There. Less distraction.

A 6 qt Le Creuset french oven – I dropped mine while drying it the other day and it has a huge crack down the side. I still haven’t recovered emotionally. LOVE the kitchenaid mixer – it’s super useful and I’ve never had problems with it (knock on wood).

I love your lime green kitchen aid! Mine is black and I love it but one of the fun colors would be nice to have

Reply

Lindsay August 18, 2010 at 4:58 am

you’ve been in my reader for a long time, that counts, right? I was going to say a new blender cause mine crapped out on me last month and a summer without smoothies is just sad. But then I noticed they had a baby section, well then I’m sold on anything there, especially with their good prices!

I love the lim green color! As a fellow hispanic who’s also married to a white boy… I get the same reaction from him when it comes to color ;)

Ok, I almost bought a mixer that color only b/c it was on sale, big time sale. But my kitchen is blue. It looks great on your counter though. Love it. And those abs, I mean veggies ;-) LOL.

I will be scheduling a tweet about the giveaway for 4:15 pm CST

Now, as for what I want most. That’s soooo hard. I really want some new bedding (specifically Croscill Botticelli Bedding Collection) but I am also dying to splurge on a stand mixer.

pen August 18, 2010 at 6:40 am

It’s beautiful! I have a red one, but I REALLY REALLY wanted the yellow one. Tell the hubs that color=happiness.

Reply

Katy @ MonsterProof August 18, 2010 at 7:02 am

I’d have to put it towards a coffee table. Maybe the Linon Mission one?

I have that exact mixer! And…I’m Casper white, so something’s wrong ;)

Reply

Madeline August 18, 2010 at 7:14 am

I think the green is beautiful – such a pretty appliance! I would love a waffle maker, I don’t know why, but I’ve just always wanted one. Must be because waffles are delicious.

Reply

Ashlei August 18, 2010 at 7:49 am

I would get either a cookbook holder or put it towards a new food processor.

Hello HOTTIE! Those are quite the abs. :)

I really really really want a food processor! I want to make banana soft serve and my own black bean burgers!!!

Reply

Lindsey @ Sound Eats August 18, 2010 at 8:23 am

Thanks for the less distracting pic. ;) I think I’d put it towards a dehydrator. Maybe. Only if I can convince my husband it’s worth it to have another space-consuming appliance. ;)

I LOVE the color of your mixer. I have the plain silver one and am kind of bummed I didn’t get a more colorful option. :/

Reply

Eunice August 18, 2010 at 11:22 am

Swooooon.. that is a lovely shade of green on that mixer.

I need a new blender, like yesterday. There was a bunch on the CSN website, so I can’t decide which one. A Blendtec? Doesn’t matter. Just one that actually crushes the ice.

Eunice August 18, 2010 at 11:24 am

Hi! First time reader and it looks like I picked a good day :)

I have been forever wanting a Kitchen Aid mixer and of course a Vita Mix blender. I used them while bartending in college and no other blender will ever compare.

Reply

Heather August 18, 2010 at 3:01 pm

I really want a Cuisinart Frozen Yogurt-Ice Cream & Sorbet Maker. I have wanted one all summer.

Reply

TorontoGirloutWest August 18, 2010 at 7:49 pm

I would get one of the Kitchenaid 5-speed blenders. Recently I made myself a knock-off frosty and I smelled my blender’s motor. Boo! :(

TorontoGirloutWest August 18, 2010 at 7:51 pm

Hehe. I had to laugh at the “I’m hispanic and like color” remark. Love it!

I would likely get something for M’s new room from CSN. Or a french press coffee maker. It all depends on whether the practical or foodie side of me wins. :D

Joanna August 19, 2010 at 12:03 pm

I would get the Hamilton Beach food processor or put it towards one of the L’Equip juicers. Thanks for holding this contest.

Your lime green Kitchenaid really is a feast for the eyes — it’s gorgeous! I wanted to get a cherry red one but they were out of that color in the model I wanted so I ended up getting a gray one instead. :( My hubby was thrilled, lol!

Thanks for hosting this giveaway! I would absolutely love a Le Creuset pitcher! (And I noticed they have it in red, lol!) :)
