Giveaway: Enter to Win an Excalibur Food Dehydrator $120 Retail Value
ENTER TO WIN! Learn to cook healthier meals for your family! Click here to enter to win Real Food for Rookies, a new online class -- retail value $120, plus over $60 worth of discount coupons. Don't miss out! contest ends this SATURDAY Sept 4th at midnight Pacific.

I’ve got another great holiday giveaway for you today. Julie from Cultures for Health is giving away an Excalibur 4-Tray Dehydrator! The retail value is $120 (actually it’s worth more than that because Julie is throwing in free shipping).
Want a BIGGER dehydrator (say, the 5- or 9-tray model) instead of just the 4-tray? Well, Julie thought of that, too — and so she’s offering you a credit of $120 toward whatever model you want. If you win this contest and you decide you want the 7- or 9-tray, just apply your entry toward the one you want and pay the difference. Regardless of which one you choose, you get free shipping thrown in!
I personally have the 9-tray and I LOVE it. If you have a small family, you may be able to get by with the 4-tray. But I prefer more trays so I can do large batches of soaked nuts or grains at a time… and I love having lots of room in there so I can take out some of the trays and be drying something on a tray while at the same time I am letting bread rise or making yogurt. And the bigger ones with more trays don’t take up any more room on your counter.
Why You Need an Excalibur Dehydrator
If you haven’t had an Excalibur dehydrator, you don’t know what you are missing. Or maybe you do!
I’ve been using my Excalibur dehydrator for two years now and I would not trade it for the world. I use it constantly in cooking traditional/slow food, and I recommend that everyone who is serious about this way of life get one as soon as possible. It will save you a ton of time and money.
Go read the post I just wrote: Top 10 Reasons to Get a Food Dehydrator.

Oh, and I’m not doing any extra entries this time. Just one entry per person.
You see, I’m leaving for Hawaii on Sunday and Kelly the Kitchen Kop is going to announce the winner for me while I’m lying on a beach sipping a mai tai. (She doesn’t know she’s helping me yet — LOL!) Anyway, hopefully Kelly will help me and if so, I want to keep it as easy as possible for her. I don’t want her to have to tally up a bunch of entries. And I want to get the winner announced well before Christmas so the winner can enjoy this new dehydrator as soon as possible!
Contest Details:
This contest will end Monday, December 15 at 11:59 PM PST. The winner will be chosen via random.org. The winner will be announced on Wednesday, December on my blog. Winner will have 48 hours to contact me with his or her full name, address, and phone number.

Good luck, everybody!

I want this dehydrator badly to give as a gift for my girlfriend. Otherwise, I would never be able to afford such a gift

If you guys cannot see the link, check to see if you have an adblocker on.
If that is not the case, it may be because you are in Canada or another country.
This giveaway is only for people in the United States — sorry!

Well, I am in Canada, so that explains why I can’t see the link.
I wish I could still enter the giveaway though…
I have relatives in the US and thought that I could just give their mailing address.
Oh, well, too bad… We Canadians always get left behind:((

Hey AM,
Wow, you’ve been so busy. I’m so glad that your business is taking off. I was thinking of you as I “had” to blog about some awards I won. How we met on DNT talking trash before you made it big in the blog world! If you want to pick up your awards….well, you know, pop over and visit me. I hope we get to have some good food together again when your visit a conference on the East Coast.
