Tastefully Simple - And A Giveaway!

Hello, fellow foodies!  : )  Today I have a special post, kind of a promotional post, for Tastefully Simple.  


I first heard of TS in my early 20's.  Some friends of my parents were consultants, and I decided to have them come make food & do a party for my birthday.  It was lots of fun, and the food was amazing!  And so easy to make!  I unfortunately lost touch with that couple, but was recently brought back into contact w/ the business via a friend from work.  She is now my exclusive TS consultant.  And she has recently started a website, making it even easier for you, dear readers, to try out some TASTEFUL and SIMPLE treats, too!

You can order whatever you'd like, and it'll ship right to your door!  How super easy is that?  Also, every week in November, you can enter to win some fabulous freebies!  : )  


Now, you probably want to hear about the products, right?  Of course you do!  You can go over there & see them for yourself, but I can give you the inside scoop on some of the wonderfulness.  : )  


First of all, the crowd favorite and possibly most well-known TS offering - Bountiful Beer Bread.  You can use any carbonated beverage, and each will give the bread a unique taste - but no matter what you use, it will be delicious!  I've tasted it with beer, Mt. Dew, and Coke, and I can't say I have a favorite because they were all equally good.  This makes an excellent Christmas gift, too - as a matter of fact, I'm sending one to my friend, Debi, along w/ her other presents!  


Next, perfect for all those holiday parties that you have to bring something for, but don't want to really MAKE anything - Tastefully Simple dip mixes are amazing!  My favorite currently is the Creamy Crab Cheeseball - you mix it w/ cream cheese & it tastes just like the inside of my favorite, crab ragoon.  Mmmm!  I actually have some of this mix in my pantry that I think I'll make this weekend.  : )  Also in my pantry, which I use not only to make dips but also as seasoning in soups, pasta dishes, and casseroles - Spinach & Herb Dip Mix.  I also enjoy the Bacon Bacon and Garlic Garlic!  


Bret is currently enjoying the Oh My! Chai - mix w/ hot water & voila!  You have a perfectly TASTEFUL blend of black tea & spices.  It's also great iced - but make sure to actually heat it up & mix it first, because just like hot cocoa mix, it doesn't dissolve well in cold water alone!  : )  Speaking of hot cocoa mix, there is a lovely Butterscotch Kisses Cocoa... Ohhhh!  


Have I tempted you with all of this deliciousness yet?  Please visit the link above & take a look at the beautiful pictures that go along with my wonderful reviews.  ; )  To tempt you even more - For the first reader to place an order via Lola's website and leave a comment to that effect, I will send you a little gift from the site, up to a $10 value.  That means, you can order some beer bread and I'll send you some Oh My! Chai to try for free!  Or whatever you'd like to try for free.  : )  


This offer is valid until there's a winner - so get over there & place your order!  As soon as I confirm it w/ Lola, I'll send you your giftee!  : )  


Until next time...
