OMG! I love this mixer. I have been needing a new one for ages but they have been too expensive. This mixer will make me want to bake ever second of every day because it looks so good and is so much better then the mixer I have.
Hi my name is Anita and I won a $1,000 Walmart gift card on your website and I just wanted to now if this is a real giveaway because I heard about fake giveaways going around in blogs! Thanks!
Disappointing. Susan G. Komen is a racket.
Three years ago, after a prostate biopsy, I was given the diagnosis of aggressive Stage III adenocarcinoma. I didn’t know what to do. The urologist made appointments for me to start radiation, and maybe chemo. Then a friend told me cannabis cures cancer. It just so happened that the first human trials of cannabis treatment of astrocytomas (inoperable brain cancer), were published with encouraging results. So I decided; rather than die from the medical treatment, I would do the cannabis cure. Now… where to get some. There was no dispensary in the area, but a friend made me cannabis butter, so I took that, up to tolerance. In three months the primary cancer was gone, only minor metastatic lesions were left. At that point I found a supplier for Rick Simpson oil and killed off the metastases in the next three months. Now I just take a maintenance dose of locally produced hash oil that is 1:1 THC:CBD with about a 30% potency. This will certainly keep me clear of cancer, anywhere, for ever. My point in telling this story is the fact that in the face of advanced aggressive cancer, all I had was very weak cannabutter, but it was enough to eliminate the primary tumor. Now there are strains of 95% THC. But is this necessary? If you have cancer and want to pursue the cannabis treatment, any at all will be good. More important than extreme potency, is balance between THC and CBD. If you can get high potency, great. If not, common potencies will work perfectly. Finally, if you choose cannabinoid treatment, start small, then increase dosage as rapidly as tolerable. To kill cancer you have to hit it hard, be conscientious about your treatment. Cannabis does no harm to the body, it is a metabolic support for the immune system. IF ANY ONE IS IN NEED OF IT, YOU CAN CONTACT [williamscannabisoil@hotmail.com].

What a beautiful color!! I have a stand mixer but if I won this I would probably auction it off as part of a fundraiser to help a friend of my boss who was just diagnosed with breast cancer.
What a happy color for a mixer!
If I won a stand mixer, I would wear it out! I love cooking and baking and I haven’t had time to go all out on it lately!

I’d want to host a 10 Year, Remission Party for my mom. She’s a stage 3 breast cancer survivor, and my hero. I’ve looked up to her my whole life. She’s my best friend and toughest woman I know, and has never been acknowledged for how hard she fought. :D
What a beautiful reason for a party! I would host a ‘your family recipe’ potluck because I love seeing what everybody grew up eating :)
A Good friend @ work is taking Chemo for her 2nd round of Breast Cancer within 2 years. I would love to have a HAT PARTY making hat cookies and pink ribbon cookies hoping to make her smile and sending her home with a variety of hats to wear.
