Betty Crocker
Happy New Year Cuban Food Poster(s) Giveaway
I've got all this great Happy New Year energy going right now and I have so many stories to tell and I'm going to San Francisco next week to visit Pixar and Skywalker Ranch. I just feel like I want to share the love and happy vibes. If you were in my town, I'd say, "Hey, come over for dinner. I'll cook you something ...
The Best of MBFCF in 2010
I started this tradition last year. I reviewed my posts for the entire year (which was kind of interesting in a wow-is-that-a-train-wreck? kinda way, but that's not important right now) and picked a mix of some of my favorites. These links are a pretty good representation of what it's like Living the Vida Loca, MBFCF-style. If you've ...
Pumpkins and Games and Googly Eyes – Oh My! (A Giveaway)
Yep, I'm still writing about Betty Crocker. I warned you I had a lot to share! Again, I want to reiterate that spending those few days with a group of proactive, excited bloggers in the Betty Crocker Kitchens will definitely be one of the highlights of my life. Seriously. I think maybe because all of us got to just relax and play. You know how ...
Cookbook Giveaway – Winner!
I've decided that what I love best about doing a giveaway, besides actually giving cool stuff away (duh) is reading your stories. Those tidbits of your lives that you share with me in the comments is like gold. If you just leave a comment and run (thank you, for commenting!), that's fine. But if you have a moment, please go back and read ...
Chipper Chicken Recipe and a Giveaway
My mom taught us girls how to cook when we were very young. During the summers, when my sisters and I were out of school, she devised a rotating system of teaching us Homemaking, the Cuban Way. My older sisters were already married and gone, but the three of us younger ones, Miriam, Alina and myself still needed to be groomed to be Perfect Cuban ...
Baking With Betty – Fabulous RED Goodie Bag Winner
I realized late on this day, when I was already at my in-laws house celebrating Labor Day that I had Something To Do that I had forgotten about. Being a little bit A.D.D. it could have been anything from leaving the sprinklers on to not folding a load of laundry. It was when someone at the luncheon started asking me questions about how I do ...
Why I’ll Never Have My Own Cooking Show *sigh*- A Giveaway
I still have so much more to tell you about my trip to General Mills and the Betty Crocker Kitchens. I have some very cool recipes I want to share and also some fun stuff to giveaway. There was so much to take in that I can't possibly write about it all in one post, so I will be writing about this for the next week or so (I'll also do ...
Baking With Betty – Brownieliciousness
I am home and overwhelmed at the amazingness that is the Betty Crocker Kitchens. I'll be writing multiple posts (and sharing multiple recipes!) about the kitchens, the company culture and the fun we had, because there's just so much to share. (Plus, I'm waiting for a few Betty Crocker goodies to arrive so I can do a giveaway. Thanks, ...
