Janyne Davis

I am disabled and can't afford to purchase one of these for my family. I used one of these at a friend's home and was amazed at what a difference it made in helping me get dinner made for us one evening. One of the biggest problems I have with my medical disability is that I get tired very easily. This often means that by dinner time I can hardly put one foot in front of the other. I feel really bad when my family ends up eating canned soup and PBJ sandwiches instead of the homecooked roasts and casseroles and other meals that they used to get before I got sick. This appliance would make it so much easier to get nutritious meals on the table quickly and since it does the work for me, It gives me the chance to sit down and rest for a bit between meal prep jobs. Thank you to all you generous bloggers for putting together such a wonderful giveaway on top of all the helpful info your posts already provide for us!!
