This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of  KitchenIQ .   All opinions are my own. When one of my contacts at KitchenIQ asked if I wanted to do a post featuring a few of their new kitchen tools, I agreed immediately. I am not a gadgety cook; I really don't have a lot of kitchen appliances. But I have received tools from KitchenIQ before and they are definitely my favorite. The Tools... KitchenIQ kitchen tools are easy to use, easy to clean, and they do what they claim they'll do! Plus, plus, plus. I love them. I received the Grate Ginger Tool , the V-Etched Spice Grater , and the V-Etched Better Zester ! I'm going to do a quick rundown of each of the products, share a recipe that used all of the tools, and - at the end of the post - you'll have a chance to win all three of these tools for yourself. Good luck!!! The Grate Ginger Tool is one of those tools that I never knew I needed...and, now, I'm wondering how I lived without it. I use fres...

When Heather at BenBella Vegan asked if I'd like to kick off the book tour for their new title Dining at the Ravens , I agreed immediately. I already had an advance copy of the book and was more than a little bit enamored with the recipes. Full disclosure: I am not a vegan. But I am in my 40s and - if you're not there yet, lucky you! - I'm finding that I have to be much more aware of what I'm eating in this decade. So, my husband and I are consciously eating more plants, fewer sweets, more lean proteins, and fewer grains. But no food is completely off limits. I don't do well with moratoria , so we're judicious with our portions and purposeful in our menu choices. And our two sons are hearing - probably more than they would like to hear - about why we're choosing the foods that we're choosing. "I'm not forty," the 12-year-old whines. "Why do I have to eat more plants?" Because, you live with us and you don't buy y...
