Jarden 6 qt. Programmable Slow Cooker Giveaway – Waiting for Spring

DSC_0980

By now, many of us have a bad case of cabin fever. We’ve had our fill of the snow and ice. We daydream about kicking back with a glass of lemonade and sporting our flip flops while browsing through the fresh produce at our local farmer’s market.

We can’t do anything about the weather, but we can give you this 6 qt. Slow Cooker and a copy of the Fix It and Forget It Big Cookbook to help you make it through the rest of winter. The Jarden 6 qt. stainless steel programmable slow cooker features High and Low settings, and automatically switches to Keep Warm when the cooking time has elapsed. So dinner is ready when you are. The removable black ceramic insert provides gentle uniform heat to create richly flavored soups, stews, casseroles, and braised meats. Both the insert and the tempered glass lid are dishwasher-safe.

(Jarden doesn’t know that we’re giving away this slow cooker.)

Scroll down to the very bottom of the page, type your answer into the Comments section, and you’re entered to win! (Or if you can’t think of anything, just say “Hi.” That’s fine, too.)

THE RULES

Just one entry per person. If you would like to respond to another entry, don’t worry; duplicate comments will be weeded out so everyone has an equal chance to win.
