Kiss the Cook Rachael Ray Cookware giveaway

Kiss the Cook Event 

Organized by: Mom to Bed by 8

I enjoy cooking for my family and we eat at home most of the nights since I tend to be on self imposed eating in challenges. I have been a fave of Rachael Ray since her Food tv days! So  I am excited that I have team up with other Mommy bloggers to give away her cookware!

Prize Package Includes:

Rachael Ray Hard Anodized II 10 piece Set

Create super-nutritious and innovative meals that are never boring with the help of Rachael Ray cookware. Create Rachael's Vegetable Cacciatore by browning vegetables in the saute pan while the accompanying whole wheat penne bubbles away in the stockpot. Or try adding a little spice to a simple lunchtime meal with a chipotle grilled cheese sandwich browned to perfection in one of the skillets. Rachael Ray Hard-Anodized cookware is the perfect combination of durability and style, and this 10-piece set certainly fits the bill. This set has all the essential pieces to make memorable meals every day. Hard-anodized construction provides even heat, helping to reduce "hot spots" that can burn food, and it�۪s coated with a durable nonstick both inside and out for exceptional food release and easy clean up. The tempered glass lids allow you to monitor your food while it cooks, keeping heat and moisture sealed in. Grippy handles feature striking orange padding for a comfortable feel. This cookware is oven safe to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and dishwasher safe for convenient, fast and simple cleanup. Set includes 1-Quart and 2-Quart Covered Saucepans 6-Quart Covered Stockpot 3-Quart Covered Saute 8.5-Inch and 10-Inch Skillets

Rachael Ray Bakeware Set - Orange (5 Pc)

This Rachael Ray 5-Piece Nonstick Bakeware Set is perfect for sweet and savory dishes alike. With five versatile pieces, this set has what you need for baking everything from fresh cookies to decadent cakes and breads, but Rach uses this set for so much more. The cookie sheet is perfect for roasting vegetables or oven fries; the rectangular cake pan is the perfect size and shape for a cheesy lasagna; the loaf pan is the essential pan for homestyle meatloaf; and the round cake pans fit the bill for quiches or a zesty chicken tortilla casserole. Rachael Ray bakeware is made from durable carbon steel that can bake over and over again with the same great results. The grippy handles provide a firm grasp when pulling items from a hot oven. The sturdy construction also resists warping so cakes and pies come out perfectly round every time. This bakeware is oven safe to 500 degrees Fahrenheit for convenience and a portion of the proceeds from this purchase goes to Yum-o!, Rachael�۪s nonprofit organization that helps kids and their parents develop healthy relationships with food and cooking. Set includes 10-Inch x 15-Inch cookie sheet 9-Inch x 13-Inch cake pan 9-Inch x 5-Inch loaf pan Two 9-Inch round cake pans

How to pay off your student loans debt faster

Have you just graduated from college or know someone who recently did with student loans?  The average American college graduate takes 10 years  

Here are some tips to pay off your student loans faster 

Avoid the lavish Lifestyle 
You don't need to go on a big graduation vacation trip or out to dinner  and drinks every night 

Don't have mad money-

Anytime you have extra cash (ie bonuses or a raise) apply to your student loan 

Pay attention to Details  

Make sure that they are applying to principle and not the future interest-sometimes 


Move back home with Mom and Dad 

This could be your biggest booster to snowball your student loan . Apartment rentals cost $700-$1000 even if you are sharing rent with a friend. 

Check out the whole story on Fox News  of how how graduate did it within 1 year
