olive oil sprayer (and a giveaway!)


Posted by Picasa
this is an item i think should be in every kitchen. it's an olive oil sprayer. i will admit, they are frustrating at times, but once you have figured it out, you will use it regularly. if you have ever owned one, you know what i am talking about. if you haven't, they seem to have a mind of their own. sometimes they work, sometimes they don't. i have gone through a few and the one shown here i bought at williams-sonoma. it has caused me no frustration. by using the sprayer, you will not over oil your food, you will not add any unnecessary additives or preservatives that you get from using pam, and i think you will begin to replace butter. i make an egg white sandwich for breakfast every morning and using this olive oil sprayer has replaced the need for using butter in my pan.  when sauteing vegetables, it allows for a light coat, rather than a hand pour from an olive oil bottle. it's little things that can begin to reshape your eating habits.  why not start with this?  so, i have a little contest for you all, a little give away, if you will.  i am going to pick a winner at random one week from today.  the winner will receive this brand new olive oil sprayer.  the rules are simple.  on a scale from 1 to 10 (10 being the greatest), respond in the comment section of this post and tell me how happy you are with what you are doing with your life. you don't have to go into details, just a number will be sufficient. i will contact the winner and get their address and send them this most wonderful kitchen tool.  the winner will be chosen at random and announced monday, august 9th.  good luck!
