I Can’t Believe It’s…a Giveaway!
Good evening! Or is it morning? Perhaps afternoon?
Good everything 
I am glad to hear you’re excited about my little announcement. My favorite guess came from The Brunette, who said:
“You’re not eloping, are you? No, you seem to be having way too much fun with the wedding plans to do that.”
No no, not quite 
It’s actually a giveaway — and I’m pretty psyched about the prizes that are being offered!
Just in time for a holiday that involves “buttering” up the ones you love — be it a significant other, a family member or a super close friend…
I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter! Spread Valentine’s Day Giveaway
I heart Megan Mullaly. Just putting that out there Will & Grace, anyone?
I’ve teamed up with the reps for ICBINB! — check them out on Twitter — to put together an awesome giveaway. Their product has made its way into many of my baked goods and recipes as a great butter substitute. Speaking of which, you can check out some of their own awesome creations by clicking here. I really want to try making their Italian-Style Stuffed Mushrooms.
So just what is up for grabs?!
A few of my favorite things, that’s what 
- A fabulous Crate & Barrel platter — they’re running a fab Ultimate Wedding Contest right now, in case you didn’t know! [Wait, you did know? I have no idea how...]
- A $25 AMEX gift card to spend on whatever you wish! [A hot V-day date, perhaps?!]
- A folder of ICBINB! recipes
Note: This giveaway is being run independently and I am not receiving monetary compensation (just want to be transparent with the new FTC guidelines)!
Excited yet? I was super pumped when I found out I’d be able to choose a random winner to receive this prize package. As usual, there are a few ways to enter:
- Visit the ICBINB! site and leave a comment with a recipe you’d like to try
- For an extra entry, tweet the following: “Visit @EatingBender for a chance to win a @ICBINotButter Valentine’s Day Giveaway: http://bit.ly/c9FFpu” Then come back and leave a second comment telling me you tweeted!
- For a third entry, a shameless plug: vote for me and Bobby in the Crate & Barrel Ultimate Wedding contest and leave a comment letting us know you did! Double points if you tweet the following: Vote for @EatingBender in the @CrateandBarrel #wedding contest! #jennkrenn: http://bit.ly/cCAlD5 – (Pls RT!)
Sorry, but I had to get that contest in there somehow! We’re determined
EDITED TO ADD: If you don’t have Twitter, you can link back from your blog OR use the new Google Buzz to spread the word! Just leave me a comment letting me know if you buzz!
This giveaway will run until — how fitting — Sunday, February 14 at 11:59 p.m.! The winner will be announced on Monday morning. Good luck!
I hope you found this to be worth the wait Enjoy your Thursday!
Abrazos,
I would like to try cookies!!
Passion truffles! Can’t go wrong with chocolate
I didn’t look past their main page as the Parmesan-Sage Roasted Turkey Breast With Sage Gravy sounded good to me. Minus the gravy because I’m trying to lose weight ,of course.

Good Luck on the vote.
