yep, I’m talking about the Velveeta Challenge. It’s been a wild ride and just wanted to say that regardless of what happens, I’m extremely grateful for every single vote whether it was to enter a giveaway, a pity vote, or an honest to goodness “because I liked your casserole” vote.
Not only did I rise to the challenge of creating a recipe that serves the family and the budget, I also gained a whole slew of new readers and for that, I am grateful.
I had some stiff competition and everyone’s casserole looked great so any one of us have a chance of winning this thing! Now of course I hope I’m the winner but if I’m not, I gave it my all and I’m proud of that.
Winner should be announced today, Nov. 24th so keep your fingers crossed for me!
Thanks again for the votes, the support, and all the kind words.
UPDATE:
I just found out I won!!! WOOHOO!! Thanks so much to everyone for your votes! There’s no way I could have own without you guys;)
I won a Cuisinart Stainless Steel Cookware Set and a $500 American Express Gift Card! WOOT!!!
Crossing fingers and toes for you! Can’t wait to hear.
Wishing you the best of luck…
Keeping fingers and toes crossed for you! By the way, do you know that I ended up buying 2 boxes of Velveeta since all this started? I hadn’t bought Velveeta in the longest time and I guess seeing all the talk about Velveeta put it in the front of my mind when making up shopping lists.
Fingers crossed. Hoping for the best. Good Luck!
I will be on the road but in contact with Sara to find out. Regardless of the outcome—though i have strong feelings you got the winner- you RAWK! wishing you the best!!!!!
