100 Men In Aprons– Benefitting Gifted Hands
August 31, 2009

This isn’t a deal, but wanted to share with you some photos from an event I took part in this past weekend.  The 100 Men in Aprons event benefits Gifted Hands, a non-profit that raises awareness for domestic violence and prevention for teen girls. 

This photo is of all the judges.  Some of them are from local law firms, some are radio personalities.  All of them were fun and hadn't eaten all day to prepare for the event!

They teamed with with the DeLaSalle Education Center and hosted this event at Penn Valley Community College where 100 men (actually about 70 or so!) cooked their signature dishes, and I was fortunate to be a judge.

Brian McRae and I were in charge of the meats category, and holy moly!  We sampled 14 different dishes (including BBQ ribs, beef stroganoff, curried chicken) and ultimately decided the deep fried turkey was our fave.

I stumbled across this while on Facebook, and was reminded by one of my viewers how she likes Victoria’s Secret deals.  As always, restrictions apply, read all the fine print on the deal. Good luck and enjoy!

If you read my blog, you’ll see there’s a lot of Kashi offers out there…like $2 off coupons and awhile back the company gave out coupons for free Kashi frozen meals. 

This really is my new favorite cereal-- but when I'm in need for sugar, nothing beats Cinnamon Toast Crunch.

I used to use a similar product when I was a fulltime reporter since you're always in the field and never know where you can find a sink!
