happy birthday to meeeeeeeee!!!! and the gadget giveaway winner announced!

In the GREAT GADGET GIVEAWAY featuring the amazing garlic peeler, it is:


being named the winner of said gadget by way of the Scrabble Method! I swear, I've got to get more creative with my random choosing methods... I almost fell asleep doing this one this time.

If you missed this awesome gadget, here is the instructional video... right here.

So Table for Seven, let me know where this sucker ... and the $15 Target gift card :)... are going by emailing me at:  xlmic.tio (at) gmail.com  and I shall hook you up!

And today is my birthday... I will write a whole narcissistic, attention-seeking post about myself later, but feel free to wish me a happy birthday, become a follower of my blog, go check out my Facebook page and click that lil ol' "LIKE" button... and if you want to see what 47 years, 363 days can look like in action, you will need to see my latest video creation:  Synchronized Carpet Swimming.

If you want to see this become an Olympic sport, you can help by making this video go viral. The IOC would have a hard time turning it down if the WHOLE WORLD was clamoring for it. And we could probably get them to consider the Going-Nowhere-Fast Triathlon also described in that post.

Granny's Gadgets #17... and a giveaway!

This one is probably the most useful gadget to date...

and so easy to use :)

aaaannnnnndddddd.....   drumroll, please...  


It's up for grabs!

The way I found out what this weird thing happens to be is pretty funny. This past Christmas, my stepdad gave us a hot pink one, demonstrated it and went on and on and on about it and how much he LOVED it. After one time using it on our own, we were totally sold. We were so excited to have this little, pliable, rubbery gadget!

Imagine my surprise when going through my Granny's Gadgets stash this week! In the bin was this same gadget... only older and brown... not stylishly hot pink ;-)  At that moment I remembered seeing it in there several years before, back when I received the Gadget stash. And I remembered wondering, "what the....? hmmmmm...." and tossing it back in and never trying to figure it out.

What that means is.... I have TWO!  And one can be YOURS!  It really is an amazing helper. If you use a lot of garlic... or any garlic... you will be so pleased and amazed at how easy and fast this thing works.

To enter this giveaway:

  • Be an official Taking It On follower and let me know in a comment that you are one  (this is mandatory this time) 
  • Tell me how you currently peel garlic... in another comment  for an extra entry
  • Let me know what you think of a Gadget Challenge in which readers post a gadget video of their own and we link them up on Mondays, or people send me their own gadget video and I post it along with mine... or something like that... in yet another comment  for an extra entry
  • blog or Facebook link to this giveaway... and let me know in another comment  for an extra entry
That means a separate comment for each attempt at winning. And I will throw in a $15 Target gift card on the side for the winner :)

You may enter up until 12:01 a.m. on Friday, May 6, 2011. I will hold the drawing on Friday in honor of .... my birthday!  Woooo hooooo!  I find giving to be lots of fun :)

Best of luck to all who play!
