Giveaway!

OMG! My first giveaway! Why? Because I like you! What can you win? A Foley food mill!

The one you will win is still in its box, but this is what it looks like!
Canning season is upon us—which is to say that there are fruits aplenty in them thar farmers markets, and before you know it, there will be tomatoes, too!—and I want you to be fully prepared to put up a bunch of deliciousness this spring and summer to enjoy all bleak winter long.

Using this handy (and hand-cranked!) 2qt food mill will make preserving a cinch, in addition to ensuring your Thanksgiving table has an abundance of silky-smooth mashed potatoes, as well as perfect homemade applesauce for breakfast every morning.

Want to enter? Just leave me a comment telling me what you're looking forward to canning or preserving this summer. For an extra chance to win, "like" the Nervous Cook on Facebook, and comment saying that you did so. It's that easy!

Good luck, and get busy canning!

Contest ends at 11:59pm on Sunday, May 20th: The winner will be selected at random from among the comments, and announced and/or contacted via e-mail on Monday, May 21st. US residents only, please: Sorry!

  11. I'm looking forward to "trying" to preserve apple sauce and green beans. My grandma did it all the time, so I'm hoping I can handle it. I'm also hosting family Thanksgiving for the first time this year, so I need smooth mashed potatoes :)
