Blogiversary Giveaway

BY Kevin Lee Jacobs | March 20, 2021 934 Comments

Last updated on March 24th, 2021

And the winner is…comment #112, from Julia Vitale. Congrats, Julia! Email me (click here) to collect your prize. For me, March 20, 2021 is a happy day. It’s the first day of spring. It’s J.S. Bach’s 336th birthday. And — drum roll please — it’s my blog’s 12th anniversary! To celebrate, I’m giving away a gorgeous green mixer. Who wants to win this heavy-duty appliance  in a random drawing?

It was twelve years ago today that I started writing down my cooking, gardening, and housekeeping experiences. Thanks for keeping me company all this time!

I’ve had a great time cooking with you! We’ve whipped up everything from make-ahead appetizers to majestic main courses to decadent desserts.

When the weather cooperated,  we designed some easy but elegant gardens. When Jack Frost visited, we winter-sowed a bevy of seeds.

We’ve made our beds…

And we’ve cleaned our entrance halls.

Heck, we’ve even washed our windows!

Now, to celebrate our twelve years together, how ’bout a giveaway?

Post a comment below, and you’ll automatically be entered for a chance to win the sparkling, grass-green mixer you see pictured above.

Update: If the 5-qt KitchenAid mixer isn’t available, I will send you the equally-awesome, and equally-powerful 8.5 qt Cooklee Mixer in Leprachaun Green! (I love the speed dial on the Cooklee — it’s really easy to use.)

The Rulz:

One comment per person, please

(If this is your first time commenting, you’ll receive a message that reads “comment awaiting moderation.” I moderate first-timers in order to avoid spam. But don’t worry — someone on my staff (i.e., Avery the Muttka ) will approve your comment in 2 shakes of a fist.)

No comments after Tuesday March 23, 2021

As usual, I’ll use the number generator at Random.org to select a winner. The winner’s name will be announced at the top of this post on Wednesday, March 24.  So be sure to check back!

Good luck, and thanks for being such a good friend for the past dozen years!

    Twelve years! Congratulations! May there be at least a dozen more …

    I have a confession to make. I’ve only actually made a handful of your recipes (nom-nom-yum!), but i do so look forward to each and every Youtube you upload. I find your videos to be extremely comforting, and in these past few years especially, they’ve helped preserve my sanity. So from the bottom of my heart, thank you. And happy Spring!

    Oh my goodness, what a generous gift! We should be giving YOU something for the hard work you put into entertaining us, Kevin, not the other way around — on the other hand, I’m not going to argue with you! Twelve years is a long time in Blog Years. I’m not sure when I started watching your videos & reading the blog, but it’s been a while — I come & go as life ebbs & flows, but I’ve always found your recipes flavourful & your delivery (both in person & written) relaxing & very approachable. Congratulations on your 12 year milestone & thank you on behalf of a very happy follower. You provide a voice of rare sanity to my days!

    Twelve years. I haven’t been reading nearly that long.

    My front yard will have a garden similar to yours. Four raised beds only mine will have a central birdbath and the paths will be a combination of gravel and clover with stepping stones I will make using stained glass. I only have one built so far (because I have to do it all myself due to Covid) but I have plenty growing already. Love to see yours and dream of what mine will eventually look like.

    Congrats on your dozen years of blogging.

    We’re moving from a large Federal farm house in very rural NH to a 2BR apartment in Bryn Mawr, PA. This mixer would be a great addition to my new kitchen; then I can toss my old hand mixer, trusty as it has been. I always look forward to your emails and trying out new recipes.

    Thank you Kevin for that which you so freely give to all your fans. I love old houses and your indoor decor reminds me so much of my grandparents house. It was a large Craftsman. Fortunately for my grandmama, my granddaddy was a carpenter. He took what was a broken down wooden structure and made it into a home worthy of Grandmama. She would eventually have the most beautiful flowerbeds on her street. She is the reason I too enjoy gardening.

My seeds are happily sitting in their little baby “greenhouse” jugs, just about to sprout and I can’t wait to try your cabbage recipe as soon as I finish this comment. I hope you continue to do this for a few dozen more years at least. Big hugs to you on this anniversary!

    Hi Kevin,

    I wonder what your thoughts are on redrawing the zone maps for gardening. Love the
    Meatza Pizza, especially with smoked mozzarella, but it portions are so tiny (6 servings out of 1lb. beef) that we have to eat slowly otherwise we are looking around for dinner!

    Stay well and start slowly in the garden.

    Kevin Jacobs, I write from Ottawa Canada to tell you, you make my nordic winter days here very happy ones when I read your blog, your recipes, your comments. You are a great blogger.
    I never had a mixer, I always wanted one, I know I will not be lucky to get it, especially being so far from you and in a different country. That is quite OK, we are only two of us. But it is sooooo generous from you to offer it to your fans!!! We also started a herb garden last year, inspired by you. Thanks for your work with your lovely blog.

    Happy 12th Anniversary. I really enjoy this blog – the travels through your gardens and through your house plus your great recipes. The tutorial I loved best was how to knead dough and the hint about not adding additional flour and how we should slam the dough down on the counter. So far the 3 breads I tried following your advice have come out very different than how I used to make them and better. Keep up the good work.

    I’ve enjoyed your web site for many years. Both gardening and cooking. My daughter works in a hospital setting and have been sending in a dessert every weekend since covid started. You have given me many new treats to try. My best is shortbread with Notella dip on the side.

    Do you still like your dishwasher?
    I’m in the market now for one and would like your thoughts

    A week rarely passes when I don’t think about you. I am either watching and printing new
    recipes or I am making an old favorite. You have taught me so much and certainly have made
    my recipe collection more interesting. I have a green kitchen, but I have never had a green
    mixer……Hope I win !! I want to plant an herb garden this spring. Will study yours. I always
    have a little clump of chives and parsley, but I want a few more. Thank you for all you do
    for your followers in computer land……….

    My most important things I’ve obeyed you on: winter sowing, clearly the most important, bought micro plane and the gadget that makes zoodles. PS, I yearn for recipes developed to substitute liquid sweeteners for white & brown sugar, which I will not use and have not touched in all these years. It’s a challenge, and one which nor I nor “they” have succeeded at. I suppose you’ve tried and you have also disdained your results despite your best efforts. Sigh.

    Congratulations on your twelve years. Although I’ve been a subscriber for only about three of those years I’ve learned a lot from you. How to freeze zucchini, making your lemon-leek pasta and watering the garden are just a few of your ideas which are now usual in my home. The cabbage casserole looks particularly interesting since I have a partial cabbage in the fridge after St. Pat’s Day.
    Looking forward to many more Sunday mornings full of delightful reading and oh so good ideas.

    Oh, sure, Kevin, everyone comes out for the giveaway! Almost 1000 of us love you this much, because you are delightful. It’s always a fun day, reading your comments and touring your lovely property. As I work my gardens (in the throes of that right now), I reflect on how hard you work to maintain and enhance your property and home. Ah, for youth!!
    BTW, green is “my” color. My home, in zone 6, has a real Caribbean flair of Turquoise and Sea Green, with splashes of Lime wherever and whenever possible.
