HOLIDAY GIFT BASKET GIVEAWAY: Aroma Housewares Juicer

Is one of your New Year’s Resolutions to eat better? Really… who’s isn’t.

How about adding some more fruits and citrus to your diet? Those vitamins are calling you! They want to party down with you in the kitchen!

A Zippidy-Doo-Dad Day

I’m so excited! I just uploaded this great new recipe software from ZipList. It’s an online and mobile recipe box and grocery list service.

What does that mean for you? My recipes will be streamlined. Easy to read. Easy to print. If you want to create your own online account at ZipList, they’ll digitally store any recipe you want. You can go from site to site to site and collect your favorite recipes. You can change them up, make your notes, keep track of what groceries you already have on hand.

It’s a pretty nifty thing.

So over the next … read the rest. . .
