September 28, 2010

Remember when we mentioned big prizes from Viking for the most impressive pickle-solvers each week on Foodpickle? Going forward, we'll be announcing the Foodpickler of the Week each Tuesday -- and because Foodpickle has officially been launched for two weeks, today we're announcing two winners!

Based on their originality, thoughtfulness and enthusiasm in saving their food comrades in need, we're pleased to announce sanscravat and betteirene as our first two winning foodpicklers. Both have won Viking Professional Digital 9-Speed Hand Mixers (pictured below).

Congratulations and thanks to everyone who's been participating over at Foodpickle -- we've been having so much fun seeing your excellent questions and answers pour in.

Is this where I put my answer to the cooking conundrums question on Facebook????

I'll tell you what I do, I get out my cookbooks and thumb through them or online and search recipes and blogs until I find something that looks yummylishious!!!!! Then I head to my supermarket and go up and down every aisle to get ideas and I put something great together. I love to surprise my family with new and original recipes and they love being the taste testers!!! It's never dull that way.

Congratulations betteirene and I agree that all of your foodpickler answers are useful, thanks for passing your knowledge on! Oh, and btw, we are just a couple miles and a trip across the bridge away…almost neighbors!

Foodpickler of the Week isn't necessarily based on any one answer in particular -- we're looking at originality, thoughtfulness and enthusiasm in responses through the whole week.

That's very cool. We were wondering about that criteria.

Doing the happy dance! I HAVE A VIKING APPLIANCE! I never thought I'd see the day. . .You people are wonderful!

It's so nice to know that more than 50 pre-Internet years of trying to get myself out of numerous pickles has resulted in something so handsome. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
