I know you have all had to listen to me go on and on about how much I LOVE Reynolds products, so I decided to make things interesting. One Clever Housewife reader will win their own 6 month supply of Reynolds products! That’s right – one of you will be enjoying the fantastic products such as Slow Cooker Liners, Oven Bags, Heavy Duty Aluminum Foil, Parchment Paper, Baking Cups and more! Hopefully you all are enjoying these products already, but now someone will get to enjoy them for free!!
In case you haven’t been following along, I went to Chicago in January to record me sharing some cooking tips & tricks, on behalf of Reynolds. I had an amazing time! I was accompanied by 9 other bloggers, who all made their own videos as well. Each week for six weeks, we have each been asked to share a blog post or video, with some of our favorite cooking tips. These posts go onto the Reynolds facebook page, and then voting takes place. Readers and followers are asked to vote on their favorite kitchen tip and/or blogger. Votes can only happen on Wednesdays and only for the duration of the contest. After today we have just two more weeks before we find out who the 5 Reynolds Real Moms will be for the year! This has been an amazing adventure and I would love your support! Come on over to the Reynolds facebook page and vote for me (Emily Lyon), before each Wednesday is over!
Voting for me does not enter you into the 6 month supply of Reynolds giveaway, nor does it increase your chances of winning. I would simply love your support!
As a thank you for being you, Reynolds has offered to let me do a giveaway! Yay! This giveaway will end at 11:59pm PST on 3/20. To enter, get started below:
I have received product from Reynolds as a thank you for participating in the Reynolds Real Moms contest. All opinions expressed are my own.
