Going through the Eat Well, Spend Less basics of back-to-school ideas for staying sane as we head into the school year, and I’m giving away a Magimix 14-Cup Food Processor with the Juice Extractor and Smoothie Attachment to make it that much easier!
Stuff. Stuff gets in the way of the things I want to accomplish. It sits there towering, a giant pile of misshapen boxes precariously perched on top of each other and forcing me to deal with it by gingerly removing and dealing with one box at a time. Removing them is the only way to get to the other side where my goals like waiting.
I was walking through the farmers market yesterday between rows and rows of fresh produce in abundance thinking about how this is my favorite time of year. There is so much potential just waiting to be used. You just have to make the time to buy cases and cases of tomatoes and berries and green beans and then process them and put them up and THAT is about the time I started to feel my throat close and block off the oxygen from the anxiety of not having enough time.
It seems that there is never enough time for whatever it is we hope to accomplish. So, today, I share with you the secret to having enough time: You must make it.
Some things are worth setting aside the time for. You just need to prioritize what those things are. Last week it was making the drive to my daughter’s first ever swim meet on the high school team, sporting her shiny black and silver suit. I was up to my eyeballs in work. My house was trashed. There were so many things on my to-do list that day I had no hope of finishing them all, even without adding a rush-hour drive and sitting at the pool.
I arrived with the three younger kids in tow. They wanted to climb right over the wall of the balcony and jump in the pool. When it was Kiera’s turn to swim my kids screamed her name. They called down to her after she reappeared at the edge of the pool, and she waved and smiled. And it was worth every minute.
Taking advantage of the farmers market produce at this time of year is similar. You make the time or you don’t, and when I don’t, I regret it. I regret it for months afterwards. Last year I failed to make pesto. I was in the midst of writing my book, my son was in the ICU, I was chairing my kids’ elementary school book fair. It just didn’t happen because I didn’t make the time for it. Months in the winter when I really needed pesto it was unavailable. Our freezer stock was empty, and while I filled in with other things, I even purchased some at the store, it just wasn’t the same.
This year I am determined to kill the time demons where they stand. Pesto is happening. Quarts of crushed tomatoes have been put up. Green beans are next. (I’m coming for you.)
Which brings me to my next bit of business. For the pesto-making and the frozen-smoothie-creating, I bring you a giveaway for a fun kitchen tool that helps make things like this take far less time. You see, 14 cups will do that to you. No, not coffee. Fourteen cups of food processing goodness.+
A Giveaway:
I’m giving away a Magimix 14-Cup Food Processor (the one in the photos above, actually) with the Juice Extractor and Smoothie Attachment (Combined ARV $479.90). It’s a huge food processor that will hold your largest jobs. My favorite part so far is the giant bowl. I used to always get my last food processor to leak. Not so with this one. The variety of blades and their storage case make keeping it ready to go easy, and the juice and smoothie attachment means it serves more than one function.

I would LOVE this food processor. Crossing my fingers… I posted on fb and Twitter. Yay!!
Oh, my goodness, what a great giveaway. I NEED a new processor and this one looks awesome!
I agree, sometimes you just need to make time! I always feel like 24 hours in a day isn`t enough.
Wow, sure could use this. We pesto a lot. We grind up squash for baking and cooking a lot. I’d love to make juices. I drink a lot of smoothies with kale in them. Winning this would rock!

I’ve used my Cuisinart food processor for 10 years, but it has lost its energy and needs to be replaced. I’d so love to put this one in my kitchen!
I would love to give this to my mom. Do you have it in your budget to hire a cleaning lady? At what point does your time cost too much?
Wow. I don’t own own, but I’ve got it on my wish list. Unfortunately, we just had to buy a new washer and dryer so I think it’s going to be staying there a while.
Would love to add this to my kitchen!
Thanks for the great giveaway!! I would love to try the juice extractor attachment
Wow! I totally love this thing! My little girl is 3-months, so we’ll be needing something like this soon! 🙂
I’m a busy mom who is trying to cook more for my family. I am on a roller derby team, where practice is 3 times a week almost an hour away. I also work full time. My son is always needing a rude to and from his own football practices and he has 3 games a week. My husband works out of town. So anything that would make my life a bit easier would be AMAZING!! <3 thanks
I’ve been wanting one of these for quite some time! This brightens up my morning after consoling my 4 year old because he didn’t have a dream about Spiderman. lol When you don’t dream of Spiderman all night, it can really put you in a foul mood. Thank you!
I could really make some serious time if I won this. 😉
This would be a dream come true! My food processor bit the dust and I’ve always wanted a juicer! So a two in one would be perfect! 🙂
14 cups is HUGE! Great giveaway I could use it to make baby food for my 5 month old, Mary. Have a great day!
I currently don’t have a food processor and I really need one. 🙂
Oh my, this would be wonderful!! Now, on to make time for important things 🙂
we love pesto too – hope our freezer stash is enough to get us through the winter ahead.
Processor looks really nice. I would love to have one please.
Would love to give this a whirl!
Don’t have a food processor, but would love one! Robot Coupes are pretty amazing.
Mmm hummus. 🙂
I would love to win!!
I?ve been using a mini prep food processor, would love a bigger one!
What a beautiful food processor! Great giveaway!
I Tweeted about the giveaway!
I have to assemble the broken pieces in my Cuisinart….for making pesto and eggplant spread and grinding vegetables for spaghetti sauce and salsa….but it still carries me through. Call me cheap for not buying new pieces! A brand spanking new one would be sooooo awesome. This is my last child’s last year of secondary school….what will I do next year?
I really need and want a food processor, please! Love the fact it has a juicer and smoothie attachment!
Love Love Love
I need a new food processor, mine lid is broke and is hard to use
This is awesome! I use my blender as a food processor and it doesn’t always cut it. The juicer is a great bonus too!
I would love to win this food processor!
My food processor is 20+ years old and I desperately need a new one! (Did you know that you can make great pie crust in a food processor? The secret is to just pulse it a few times so it doesn’t get tough.)
Ooh! I’d love this esp. for the juicer and smoothie attachment.
Wow… What a fantastic contest!! I usually don’t enter contest but I couldn’t pass this one up. I’ve never owned one and need one. I tweeted, google +, re pinned, liked and posted on fbook.. Lolol
Thanks!!
Yes! I hear you about trying to find the time for all the produce, but come January we’ll be so grateful that we did!
Your words in this post were just the strength and encouragement I needed today to focus on what is important in all the madness. Processor or not, it gave me a skip in my chaos. =) Thanks!
Here’s a story of a fond memory.
My mom and I are known for our carrot cake recipe. We always shredded our carrots in the blender when I was young, because that’s the only thing we had to do it with…when I was 8, we were working as the dynamic duo. She peeled the carrots, dropped them in the blender, and I whirred away. We were moving at lightning speed and I forgot to put the lid on the blender with the last carrots she tossed in. We had carrots ALL OVER the kitchen. We fell on the floor in a fit of laughter and looked up — there were shredded carrots on the ceiling that eventually landed in our hair. We never made a carrot cake again without mentioning the carrot shredding escapade. My mom died three years ago, and it’s one of the best memories I recall.
So- do I get extra points for saying that my food processor is kind of melted since I zapped some chocolate in it? Sigh. Still works – but not a pretty picture!
And I tweeted!
I’ve never had a food processor and I really, really want one! Plus, my kitchen is getting remodeled so I will have room for one now!
My current food processor has issues and I desperately need a new one as I use it at least every other day!
I just tweeted (atexastwist) and it’s also posted on my Facebook page.
I would love to win this! I have an old machine but need a new one.
I love the size and the smoothie attachment!!
Wow, I would love this! My current food processor isn’t doing so great so I’ve been looking into replacing it…and with one that multi-tasks? Heck yeah!
This would make my dreams come true!
i would love to win this food processor i need one bad ty
How awesome! I love my food processor but it’s on its last leg! I would love to have this one!
I would love to win this. Our family has been on a healthy living journey and this would be an amazing help!
I would love a new food processor my mini I’ve had for years is no longer cutting it

I shared on FB!
I’ve been quiet, too. It’s ok — everyone is busy this time of year. Fall is one of my most cherished seasons, but I don’t really get to sit back and take it all in until it’s *poof* OVER. Good luck getting all of your tasks completed!
Shared on facebook!!!
This would be amazing!
I just found your blog. Excited to follow you!
I have been wanting a food processor for so long! I’m burning up my blender using it for food processor worthy projects. I would LOVE this!
I tweeted and Fb shared 😀
I have been wanting a food processor for quite some time. Hummis and other things just aren’t quite the same in the blender!
This would be fantastic! I do a lot of from-scratch cooking and I love to put up veggies and such in the freezer, but it’s a lot more work with my tiny food processor/chopper. Anything that makes kitchen time more efficient is very welcome in our home. Thanks for hosting such a great giveaway! 🙂
I would love to win. My old food processor literally just bit the proverbial dust!
I would love this… so many recipes pesto, banana bread, zuchini bread…. please me me me 🙂
This is something that has been on my “wish list” for literally years…. unfortunately, it hasn’t ever been on my shopping list, due to the pricetag. What a wonderful giveaway!

Tweeted! @Livinglessmom
I could really, REALLY use this!! My store-brand model is J-U-N-K, and was a replacement for an expensive one I was given. Sniff, sniff.
Would love a food processor! Looks like a wonderful product.
Love love love that food processor and I would use it everyday!!! twitted, fb- thanks for the contest!!!
I’m excited for the juicing, smoothie-making, and souping possibilities!
I really need this. Fingers crossed that I will win!
I can so relate to the “not enough time for the canning” feeling. I have a leaning tower of cases of jars in my kitchen and tomatoes galore in the garage. And then there are the apples and pears that need to be done…
I shared this on my facebook page 🙂
WOW!! This food processor look awesome! Just looking at it makes me
want to chop something up!!
I have had that kind of summer, many missed opportunities, I have got to get to the farmer’s market!! Would love to win the food processor!!
I would love this food processor to help me engage my family in more healthy eating options at home…
Shared on Facebook…
I’ve been considering a new food processor. Winning this one would be great!
ooooooooh me likey!
I agree that we have to make time. I wish there was a way to make “all the time in the world”!
I would LOVE to win this food processor-I am most excited about the juice extractor!
Wow! That’s quite a machine!
Shared this on facebook! 🙂
This would fit perfectly in our family of 5!!
Nice read. I love my morning smoothies. Makes the morning a pinch easier.
I love food processors! 14 cups would be awesome!
I love it!
I am doing the blood type diet and this would help me prepare my meals, great giveaway.
I gave my food processor to my son & his wife when they got married last year and now realize how many times I would have used it if I had one! Would love to replace it with this very nice one!
this would be a DREAM COME TRUE!!
Awesome! Would love it!!
I shared on Facebook!
I’ve been wanting to upgrade my food processor, but haven’t done the research on which to buy yet. This one looks fantastic! Thanks for the great giveaway.

I tweeted about the giveaway
I killed my food processor a couple of weeks ago. It was a sad, sad day 🙁
I posted about the giveaway on facebook
I need a new food processor too – I use mine a great deal – my husband doesn’t like celery, onions etc. I have to pulverize everything to hide it 🙂
I tweeted the giveaway @icywit
I posted a the provided phrase to twitter @annadishes
I have been hoping to get a food processor but I am intimidated by all the options. Winning this would be fantastic!
My food processor broke two weeks ago and my life has been hard ever since – I think it was my most used kitchen tool 🙁 Thanks for the opportunity to win!
I would love to win this!! I like that it holds a substantial amount, how great! The juicer attachment is such a plus!

I could use a food processor like this Magimix!
I would love to win this food processor! Mine died a few years back, after many years of use, and haven’t been able to afford to replace it. Hmm…I could make pesto again, too!
This is my first autumn with 2 out of 3 kids in school. Little guy left behind is not happy. Perhaps a smoothie would help?
I’ve been thinking about how much I need a food processor- just haven’t had time to canvass yard sales since the boys’ ball seasons completely overlap yard sale season. This would definitely solve the problem!
My canning and processing takes all of my time this time of year. I have to take time for the other activities. This processor would make it all a little easier.
Wow, this food processor looks incredible. Just the thing to conquer the kitchen. My canning, jamming efforts could increase substantially. Thanks!
I feel your pain! With the decision to homeschool year round, it seems like there never enough time to get the things done that need to be done! Thank goodness for the hours between 430 and 7 when the rest of the family rises! I also tweeted & shared on facebook.
I so understand what you are saying…you have to make the time to put food up. Many late nights and egg sandwich dinners are the sacrifices I make to can tomatoes and make applesauce and apple butter. In the winter when all you have to do is run to your basement pantry and grab a can of summer bounty, you are so thankful you made the time!
I want to win this! Thanks for the giveaway!
Use a food processor almost everyday!
It is very hard to make the time to do all the things we want/need to do. Last year our cows got in the garden area and ate down the green beans. I so missed having those fresh frozen green beans in the winter. The frozen one’s in the store just don’t cut it.
I have a son who loves veggies. This would be so great to help further his palette. I would be so honored to own one.
Would love to have the processor!It would be
so handy to have for a variety of foods.
I feel you pain. I’ve made many a mess with stuff leaking out of the bowl. And I must say, I looooove kitchen gadgets, especially when they make my life easier!
What a great food processor! The one I use is one I bought when I was a graduate student so you know it’s not great 🙂 Small and not so powerful. I’ve tried stuffing the full recipe into it with predictably bad results – a real mess to clean up. Thanks for the giveaway!
Looks amazing! Exactly what my kitchen is missing!
This would be awesome and much better than the one I currently own that is horrible to shred and slice veggies! I love gathering and freezing produce so I have it all winter.
Comment left.
Well, I’ve been trying some new things lately, including Date Paste as a sweetener. My most recent attempt was Almond Butter. Unfortunately, this stripped my inexpensive electric food chopper. I am now down to using only manual utensils for chopping, slicing and shredding. I’d love a nice food processor. Oh the things I could do!
I’ve been using a mini food chopper for years because I can’t bring myself to spend the $.
I had to start cooking from scratch vs processed foods a few years back due to health reasons. I tried to save up for a food processor to widen my variety of foods but 2 rounds of unemployment have my finances in the red. I would stand on my head and sing the national anthem for this beauty! I shared the giveaway to Facebook too.
Wow….a great canning tool too!

My husband finally threw away the processor that I inherited from my mom because it was losing pieces and leaked everywhere (I stubbornly continued to use it because I couldn’t justify spending the money I wanted to spend on a new one). I have yet to replace it and there are recipes I simply can’t do in a blender.
I’ve recently started canning and cooking more….never had a food processor and I’ll bet that would come in handy!
I shared this on facebook.
I know what you mean about time. If you have freezer space, you can just freeze tomatoes whole. When you want to make sauce, you just run them under hot water, the peel slips off, and then I plunk them in my pan. They melt/thaw quite nicely. (By the way, I would love a new food processor. The bowl on mine broke, so now I use a skewer to press the locking button down while holding the lid on at the same time).
Awesome, awesome, awesome giveaway!
Oh we could definitely use this in our kitchen!
I have been working at eating whole foods with my family. This food processor would really help in preparing food. I have a small one but could use the power that this one provides.
Shared on FB
I don’t even use the current one I have since it is so junky! This would be a great prize!
Oh the thoughts of all the things I could make with this!
What a great giveaway!
I can definitely sympathize with the overwhelmed feeling!
Awesome!!!Would love to own this!!!
I also love your healthy tips…I’ve been sharing health for 20+ years and share a daily health tip on my fb business page Nature’s Resources – healping you 2 live greener!

Ooh, my husband (the CEO of the kitchen in this house) is always complaining about our tiny and messy little food processor. I would love to surprise him with this one! Thanks for the giveaway. 🙂
Would love to have one of these! Also shared the link on Facebook twice!
That pesto looks so smoooooth! That’s 5 o’s worth! 🙂
Magimix sounds amazing!!!
I have been learning more about making time rather than finding time as well. Thank you for the reminder!
I would love to win this!
I would love to win a really good food processor…thanks.

I would love to win this! I’m thinking I can sneak more veggies into my family’s diet if I can puree & mix the viggies into our meals. 🙂
How much do I want to win this! It looks lovely and while we’re at it, I sure wouldn’t mind eating that pesto either.
This thing looks awesome.
Oooooh! How exciting is this?! I am thinking of all the fun things I could create with this amazing machine 🙂 Thanks for the opportunity to win!
My food processor broke last week. This would be awesome right about now!
I am midstream in switching to gluten free, sugar free, high protein diet and any help; ie, new toys or organizational tips are great appreciated.
I’ve gotten into changing the quality of food my family eats by canning I actually out grew my current processor!
This looks fantastic! (my food processor broke this summer, and I need to make pesto from the basil in my garden!!)
Very cool giveaway… thanks for the chance! I have a Cusinart that was my Grandmothers. Is is OLD and frail and barely hanging in there!
Mmmmmm… Pesto!
Very nice! Thank you!!
amazing, sounds amazing!
I posted on FB too 🙂
I have a tiny food processor that takes 5 batches just to get a cup or two worth of food…I am in love with this food processor!!
I get that throat-closing anxiety all the time! Thanks for the tips!
A story? I love to cook as well, and my house is a constant mess as I grip with what is truly appropriate. I have been on a mission to declutter our home. Yes, but trying to profit by it as well, so there it sits in our living room. So much of it, there is hardly any walking room anymore. All listed on the web waiting for someone to grab it up. But what we truly need is built in bookshelves, for many reasons. We have way too many books. They need a home. Also, we have these great basket in which to put stuff, but no where to put the basket. So I am trying to organize. And if I could combine a few appliances into one, this mixer sounds too good to be true! Hope I win!
Just curious, do they notify the winner by email?

14 cups of coffee would also get things done a lot quicker! Great giveaway & just in time for helping puree plum butter & apple butter 🙂
that would be really nice to have in my kitchen!
I tweeted about the giveaway too
Oooooh! I would love to have this food processor! Pretty please?
I would love this food processor….man I am salivating over all the good food I could make with this!
I would love to win this!
I really really wish that Downton Abbey was showing in the US right now too! I don’t want to wait until Jan.!
That pesto looks so good. Love your site, thanks:)
i would love this! i have three boys and i have a super old black and decker processor that is almost 20 years old! it is pathetic and one of the rubber feet is missing. it jumps all over the counter when i use it. i have to fold it down so it doesn’t flip itself onto the floor!!!! that magimix looks awesome!!!
i shared this on fb, too!
Could certainly use one of these in our kitchen.
I too have been trying to figure out where the time will come to put things up this year…with a baby coming, a 3 year old and a big move it’s been a crazy summer and I have nothing but some strawberry jam on my shelves. This would help with many items that I want to make for the winter!!
Great giveaway! I would love to have a food processor with a juicer attachment.
This would be amazing. I do have a little Sears food processor that I picked up from the thrift store. It was probably at least 30 years old. The grater attachment broke and it doesn’t stand up to big jobs.
Hello, what a great giveaway. I was chatting with a friend about how great it would be to own one of these machines yesterday! Thank you for the chance to win!
Also tweeted!
I have a mini food processor and it’s always leaking because I overfill it. I can’t even let it run without holding the button down. I would love a new food processor to make almond butter!
Yummy! That looks good, and I sooo need a processor! Thanks for posting!
Wow!
I tweeted about this giveaway!
Oh I hope I get picked! I would love this! Cooking for 4 boys; I could really use this!
Great giveaway, Shaina! And I agree, sometimes you just have to make the time for things. I never got around to making any relishes last year, and I sorely regretted it when we wanted to grill over the winter. I just couldn’t bring myself to buy the HFCS-laden ones from the store. Now, fresh cucumbers are nearly at an end – thanks for the reminder to get moving!
This is so true!
I shared on Facebook.
Wow, that looks like perfect pesto!
Just shared this on Facebook!
I would love a big food processor! Thanks for the giveaway!
I’m so fond of food processors. I use them for everything (dough, pesto, soup). This one looks fabulous!
Oh my! The things I could make with this!!!! <3
Pesto is my favorite summer food! I check for basil as soon as the Farmer’s Market opens in the spring, and my family eagerly anticipates the very first batch of pesto. I have never tried freezing it, but I can’t imagine a better way to break the winter doldrums than serving a summer favorite in the middle of February!
Need!!!!! Tired of ones that leak. Posted on Facebook too.
I was making peach jam yesterday and wishing for a larger processor!
What an awesome food processor. I have a favorite recipe that I can’t make often because of the hassle of having to make it in small batches. This would be perfect!
I am throwing my name in, even though it didn’t say that Canadians can enter. Can Canadians enter? We need to process and juice too!
I twittered!
This looks amazing
What a beautiful machine! What a great giveaway!
My food processor died 4 months ago, it was a sad death while trying to chop nuts. I haven’t had the extra money to replace it so this would be totally awesome!
Wow! looking for a food processor but don’t want to get a cheap one and cant afford a good one!!!
Can’t wait to explore your site!
Would love to win this Great prize since I don’t have one !
Wow! We could make so many things with that! I’d love to have a large processor like that!
My food processor finally died a few months ago. I miss my homemade hummus!
Fingers crossed! 🙂

multipurpose, love it!
I have been wanting a food processor for years now, just waiting for the right price. Free is a great price! My daughter has been begging for a juicer. We would have two in one! Hope we win!
As I sit and stare at the 50# of San Marzano tomatoes that I just picked from my garden, contemplating the most efficient method to process them, I see this giveaway…. what a wonderful addition this would make to my kitchen.
I have wanted a good food processor forever, but our budget doesn’t allow it. I make my pesto in a blender, which doesn’t yield the same results. Great tools make life so much easier. I have a small yarn and fiber dyeing business and try to buy things for that which will make the work go smoothly and result in less waste overall.
I’ve got three bushels of tomatoes I’m working through, and apple season is upon us – argh! Anything that saves time for my 3 little kids is a good thing. The magimix may just be a great thing.
This would be fun to win!
Thanks for the great giveaway chance! I love to make pesto and this processor would make a wonderful addition to my kitchen!
My 20 yr old food processor finally died and I’ve been trying to decide on a replacement…. for over a year! I’d love to give this one a try. And on an unrelated subject, I’ve starting making cheese at home and can’t believe how easy it is! Fresh, homemade mozzarella and chevre is amazing!
i would LOVE to have this food processor in my kitchen!
I love my current food processor, but with a family of five its 7 cup capacity just does not cut it. I would love one with more capacity!
Chop local.
Anyone know what is the average life expectancy of a food processor? My current Kitchenaid processor is 3 years old and literally falling apart(I have to jam a chopstick in it to make it run). Wondering how the Magimix compares.
I would love a new food processor! I’m currently stuck using my little immersion blender for everything, or hand chopping.
I would love to win this. Love all of your school lunch ideas.
I made ginger-sweet potato-lentil soup the other day, and it required pureeing. My tiny 6-cup food processor simply did not do the trick. This would be such a blessing!
This would be a highly excellent addition to the ol’ kitchen. And I wouldn’t have to attempt to hold my current one together while operating anymore!

I would love to win this for my oldest daughter who does lots of canning. Currently, she uses my 32 year-old Cuisinart (which is still going strong).
Would so love to have a nice, big processor. Pick me! Pick me! 🙂
I totally need this in my life!!
I so need a new food processor. We got one for a wedding gift 22 years ago. We had a HUGE crop of basil from our garden this year and wouldn’t you know my processor died right in the middle of making batches of pesto! Thanks for the chance to win one 🙂
Amazing!
Love Your ideas! What a creative mind!
I would love, love, love to win this food processor!

I’ve been investigating this RAW food movement, but its a little hard to do with my dying magic bullet-would love to win this!!!
As someone who loves to have large family dinners and put food by, this would be amazing to use in my kitchen. Wow, the soups I could make, the shortbread I could mix up, the aioli I could produce…
REALLY wish Canadians could enter!!
Been looking at the vitamix…hoping this would be a good option instead!
LOVE pesto!!!
You must be crazy with the book tour this year! I am making time to harvest the rest of my herbs before the first frost. And pesto is a fabulous thing to test in this processor! Thanks Shaina!
(I also retweeted!)
i would do work with this. fact.
Shared on facebook, too!
A family of 5 which includes 3 boys that eat none stop; this would be used to it’s fullest!!
Cheers
Marnie
I feel like this would complete the mismatching look I’m going for in my kitchen. White, black, and silver appliances. Does it come in red?
Would love to have this!
I love your blog
I have a day care center in my home and I love to cook.
Oh man I need one of those. My current one that I have had for 12 years now doesn’t seal very well any more and stuff flies every where when I use it. lol!
It’s hard as moms to carve that time out…but so worth it when we do!
A few months ago, I found out my husband was cheating on me. We went to counseling and tried to make it work. But he decided he didn’t want to be with me. And then he filed for divorce. The past few months have been depressing and trying. My husband left our house, our dog and every responsibility he signed on for. I’ve been working hard to keep things together, but I’ve begun to forget about myself. This gift would remind me why I’m valued, special and loved. I hope you’ll make my wish come true.

I am sorry but I am from Canada.
So, just last week my food processor broke. I was making a batch of pumpkin cookies and it just stopped working. I have had my food processor for 20 years and it served me well. This beauty would be an amazing replacement!
Awesome giveaway! Thank you!
It’s fall and pie time. Would love this to help with making pie crust!
I tweeted!
This looks great! I dropped my food processor down the stairs and need to replace it.
I would love to have a food processor in my kitchen. What a great giveaway Thanks.

Would love to win this as my food processor’s bowl is broken!
I shared this giveaway on FB!
I hope I win!! I’ve always wanted a food processor, but haven’t forked over the cash for one!
Ive been looking for a good quality food processor to make delicious pesto as hummus for my family!!!
Oh man. I would put this thing to WORK.

I tweeted about this giveaway! http://wp.me/puu57-37l
OMG this would be awesome. I have been using my mom’s antique processor. I cross my fingers every time that it will work.
As a family of 5, we do a lot of cooking and baking together – this would be a fantastic addition to our kitchen.
For a wedding gift, ages ago, we received an all in one blender/food processor/meat grinder, etc. I broke the blade on the food processor the first time I used it. Now I have my mom’s 1970 something food processor. You couldn’t possibly know how much I’d love to win this!
Wow! I would love to have one of these!
Did my tweet duty!
I tweeted!
Yes! Would love this! I do LOTS of food prep, canning and so on!
thank you for offering this through your contest!
What a fantastic device. I have a food processor that is now 10 years old. It was our first wedding present and my husband and I use it on a daily basis. Only, it is starting to make that burning engine smell. Yuck! It would be great to win this one. Hello juicing attachment!
So, my story for you today is this: I tried my hand at canning tomato sauce this year. I made 8 quarts of it from a 25 lb box. Good thing that is all I had cuz it was hard work. The funny part? Or should I scary part? I water-bathed it for 45 minutes. Those jars boiled on my counter for hours. But I read that it is better to over-process than to under-process. I am okay right?
Ps. I shared on FB.
Oh, and I pinned it on Pinterest too!
Pick me 🙂
A food processor that doesn’t leak – sounds divine!
This would be such a lovely replacement for my second or third hand 6 cup food processor!
I’d love to win a new food processor!
So I bought my first food processor this year and in a hurry one night did not have time to wash it before company came over. Well to hide the mess I put the bowl attachment in the oven. The next day the oven got preheated for dinner and the bowl was destored. Sad day in my house. It was not nearly as nice as this but still I loved it and would take much better care if I won!
This would look great in my new apartment, and the timing is perfect with the holidays around the corner. I’m sure it will get a great holiday workout by whoever it goes to. Thanks for the opportunity! 🙂

I absolutely love that you “share” others websites for food ideas. I love when someone does the hard work and lets me know where to go for a specific idea. Thanks. I will look up the Magimix 14 cup food Processor. (love the larger capacity)
I have the smallest food processor! To this day I regret passing along, an old but working, much larger one. At the time I wasn’t into cooking and creating the way I am today. Winning this giveaway would be wonderful, especially for bringing in the end of my garden harvest!!
Awesome giveaway. Thanks.
I am really in the need of a food processor. Mine broke last year.
Shared on FB!
I think I would love this!!
great prize
I’d love a new food processor.
We make a mean hummus and usually in a big quantity this would be awesome for that.
I was thinking of you just yesterday, in terms of your brussel sprout breakfast hash… thanks for providing inspiring recipes!
My husband is always talking about how he used to juice a lot of fruits and veggies, and that there is nothing like it.
I would absolutely love this for my growing family of soon to be 8! I often bake and cook from scratch but I don’t have one yet and it would be an awesome blessing.
🙂
What a super cool giveaway! Thank you!
This would be perfect door helping me cook at home more!
Just tried to make pesto in my blender….didn’t work 🙁 Need a food processor 🙂
I NEED one of these!!!!! Fingers crossed!!

This thing looks awesome. I have been using the same food processor that I received as a wedding gift 17 years ago. I think it’s time I made an upgrade. 🙂
I would LOVE to have this food processor! 🙂
I’m leaving a comment 🙂
Thanks so much for this awesome giveaway! A food processor is on my dream sheet of kitchen applicances =)
I could use this. Right now I do it all by hand.
Amazing recipes and blog! I would love the Magimix Food Processor 🙂
Tweeted https://twitter.com/BeeBubbaBella/status/248153762110267394
I’ve seen that the Magimix is the best food processor-it’s made in France by Robot Coupe, the people who invented the food processor. The first Cuisinarts were made by Robot Coupe, but then they went to China for their manufacturing. This is one that’s still good and still made in France.
I’d love to have one!
dave
You have no idea how much I want this~
I would love to have this!! 🙂
I do love to cook and bake and think this would come in handy. 😉
Can you believe never used a food processor. I would love to use this to make salsa amount other things. :).
I am in desperate need of a food processor! My kids melted mine in the dishwasher and I have been borrowing my mom’s but she uses it all the time too. Oh how I would love to win this!
would love one of these processers, so many ideas running through my head!
Almost bought a little cheap one the other day…maybe I’ll win this one!

O how my family and I would enjoy one of these wonders to make our salsa more yummilicious. Thanks, blessings, kerbe
This would be awesome:) I haven’t had a food processor for years!
Don’t have a food processor!

I stumbled upon this offer through facebook. Boy, would I LOVE to win this Magimix! I’ve got a tiny food processor and it has been a challenge this summer making large batches of pesto with the basil from my garden. One year I even used the tiny gadget to slice copious amounts of cucumbers to make pickles and relish! Never again!
I’ve always wanted to get a food processor, but haven’t had the money to do so. Thanks for this awesome giveaway!
I need a food processor sooo BAD! I currently have 2 mini food precessors that I was using simulateously as one will jus not get the job done. And one over-heated this weekend 🙁 this would be a great addition to my kitchen AND make life so much easier! 🙂
I’ve NEVER owned a food processor! I have always wanted one and desperately need one – I can’t stop thinking about the endless amount of things I could make with this one!
I would LOVE this! I have never had a food processor!
I really like your blog – and I’d really like that food processor!
Would love to win this guy!
I have ALWAYS wanted a food processor. It would be wonderful to win one! Thanks for having the contest!
Great giveaway!!!
My husband loves pesto. I would love to be able to make it instead of buy it!
Awesome giveaway! Love your blog!
I am 69 years old and have always wanted a food processor but other things were more important. I have heart disease and failing kidneys and i am sure a food processor will help me maintain my diet.
I’d love to have one, just cannot afford.
I’m on a 1 income budget with 3 boys and I had a food processor that only lasted 6 months and this would be perfect to win!:)
Oh, what a dream! I’ve been struggling with my 3-cup chopper to make things. Thanks!

thanks for hosting the giveaway!
I have been wanting a food processor for months now! Every time I go to chop or blend something up, I pull out my tiny chopper and think to myself that a nice food processor would be AWESOME and get the job done so much quicker!
ahhhhhh, my food processor broke last night…guess it’s time to teach the children how to chop, grate, mix……..
This is a wonderful, generous giveaway! I’d love to win, thanks for the chance!
i have been living with my cheesy little tiny food processor for too long- i love to cook, and this would make it so much easier! i love the sleek stainless steel look of it too.
WOW!! I have been debating getting a processor ever since I have been trying to cut out most processed foods, and creating meals from scratch. This would be an amazing addition to my kitchen favorites!!
Oh, how I can relate to a leaky bowl. : (
Thanks for the opportunity to win a new one. : )

I shared the giveaway on facebook. =)
Having pesto tonight! Would love to make a whole lot more with this. 🙂
I posted the message on Facebook, too!!!
Cooking is my passion, although sometimes passion has luxuries that unfortunately I can’t always afford. So this processor would be amazing!!! I would love to try all new recipes 🙂
I come from the best of two culinary worlds being of a mixed heritage, and recently discovered my love of cooking and what a joy it brings to my life!! I would love to win this awesome food processor as I’ve also recently discovered that a blender just simply doesn’t do the job!!! Thank you for the awesome giveaway!!
This food processor looks awesome!
I need a food processor so badly! I have needed one for years and keep using my poor blender to do the job of the processor…not always the same result! I would love to win this!!! 🙂 Thanks for the cool offer!
Love the size . . . will accommodate some of my favorite recipes, like Julia Child’s perfect pie crust.
My food processor is older than my son who will be thirty in October! This one looks AWESOME!
Also shared via Facebook.
Would love to have in my kitchen!
My food processor just died. This would fit in really well with the rest of my kitchen gadgets. They like new friends. I think they might have done the old processor in, honestly. He was kind of a grump.
I also tweeted the giveaway as theonelittlepig. Thanks again!
That would sure look pretty on my counter top!
That pesto looks so good and fresh!
I love fall and all the great produce…
the time to preserve it is a problem for me too.
Oooooo I would LOVE an awesome food processor like this!
Would love to have one of these to replace my older Cuisinart food processor.
I have a big bag of basil sitting in my fridge waiting to turn into pesto. I only have a tiny little food chopper so this would be great to win!!
Here is to hoping….I don’t have a food processor, it’s on my Christmas list…but probably out of my family’s price range…Sooooo…would love to win one.
I shared this wonderful giveaway on facebook!
Thank you for the chance!
my food processor was a hand-me-down when i got it 15 years ago, so winning this one would be great!
I posted on my facebook page! Thank you so much!
I would love this. Thank you for the giveaway.
I just mentioned to my husband last night about how I need a good food processor to keep up with all of our new food recipes. Our cheap stick/immersion blender just isn’t cutting it!
Awesome!

I’ve never had a food processor and it’s been on my list forever. I’d love to win one of these!

Love of baking and cooking – couldn’t imagine life without a processor – I use to do everything by hand – in need of a new one – 🙂 Thanks for giving away an amazing machine! I’ll post on facebook
My food processor broke!! I’m desperate for a new one! 🙂
My grandma gave me her old 1970s Cuisinart, and it is on its last legs. This food processor looks like a really useful one. Totally worth the storage space!
A story: once upon a time there was a broke grad student and a broke librarian who really loved cooking but couldn’t afford a food processor. The end–OR IS IT?
I’ve always been intimidated by the food processor, but I’d love to have one. Thanks for doing this! Good luck with your list of stuff to do…
I would love a new food processor, mine is 30 years old!
This looks awesome! I have managed to kill my old (cheap) one.
I love food for my family …. it keeps us alive and well!

Mmmmm pesto…
Hi,
I enjoy your blog and FB page. Love the recipes and ideas. It gives you a homey feeling!

Would love a new food processor!
This is one amazing food processor!!! Mine is a relic from the 1st year they came out and doesn’t do a good enough job to even try. This would be a wonderful improvement over the dinosaur! Thanks for the contest.
What a generous thing to do for your fans! Thanks for the chance to win a wonderful product!
Forgot to say that I liked you on Facebook. Thanks again!
What an awesome tool. My newly remodeled kitchen should be ready in 6-8 weeks and a new food processor would be the cherry on top.
This would be a huge help in my HEALTHIER eating. I’ve lost 58 pounds since Feb 2012 and have now made great changes with the help of my Chiropractor/Nutritionist to keep the weight and fat off. I’m almost at my goal of 75% lean mass and 25% body fat. Wow—what healthy things I could create with the Magimix 14-Cup Food Processor with the Juice Extractor and Smoothie Attachment!
I tweeted about the contest.

This looks like an incredible machine. I would definitely be able to put it to good use!

Ooh! Ooh! Pick me, pick me! I would LOVE to have this in our home!
I love making pesto. This would certainly get the job done!
I need this to replace my dinky mini-prep!
We have been homeschooling for about 14 years, and our oldest has graduated. Our younger son, 16, is in his last year or two of homeschooling. It is sad to think of it almost being “over”. I have loved it, and I have seen what it has done for our family.
Living on one income, ( my husband is a professional musician), makes things sometimes quite limited. So, it would be lovely to win this mixer, food processor, juicer.
Thank you for the chance to even try to win.
Would love to win this!

I sure could use that beautiful machine during canning season!! Salsa Salsa

Bigger is not always better but in this case, yes, yes it is.
Would love this!
would love to win this, sadly my food processor is dying a slow death so having a really nice new one like this would help to put the old one out of its misery!
Dear Shaina,
I stumbled upon your website while browsing Facebook and would like to share my story with you. My name is Gianna and I am a senior undergraduate student at UC Berkeley. When I read your post about making time for the important things in life it completely resonated with me- between classes, lab, applying to graduate schools, serving as president of the American Medical Student Association, and working on my senior honors thesis, I can say with confidence that I understand what it is like to be busy. Over the years I’ve learned to prioritize my time better, and recently I have even been setting aside enough time to make it to the gym. The one thing I am still adjusting to is making my own food at home, rather than always eating out and on the run. I would love to win the Magimix giveaway as I believe it would really save me time and lead a healthier lifestyle.
Thank you for sharing your posts and this wonderful giveaway!
My food processor is falling apart and I have no money to get a new one. What a huge blessing this would be…HUGE! Thanks for sharing!
I tweeted: https://twitter.com/bonnie0128/status/248199326759792640
I shared on facebook too – don’t know if there’s a way to link to a specific post tho 🙁
I really and truly need to win this. Oh I hope it is me.
i recently changed to a raw diet and a food processor is #2 on my list after a vitamix blender. this would come in so handy-i have soo many recipes and having a great food processor would cut my time in half. thanks
Ooooo, what a kitchen treasure! Thank you for the chance to win!
Love your website and would love to win! Thanks for the chance.
I SHARED ON TWITTER

Oh my goodness, 3 machines in 1! To win this would make my YEAR!!
What a great addition to any kitchen, hopefully mine, LOL It is something I have always wanted but have never been able to afford. Thanks for the opportunity!
Hi! This looks amazing! I also tweeted your giveaway deets on the Twitter page for my website, mealsinthemiddle.com.
Tweeted too and shared on FB!

I have always wanted a food processor. but i have never won a single thing in ENTIRE LIFE. I pretty much enter into these things all the time…. false hope for this one maybe?
I like to know what my family is eating. Even choosing healthy options like hummus can be deceptive unless you make it yourself, controlling any sodium and leaving out preservatives. A food processor and juicer is a great way to take care of the precious people in your life!
I WANT THIS. PICK ME! PICK ME! Thank you for the generous and timely giveaway.
What a fabulous giveaway.I hope I win!
Oh my – that pesto looks gorgeous! As the mommy of a toddler with another on the way, I actually have more time than you would think. My problem is energy!! But I am easing out of my first trimester, so it would be great if with my returning energy, I also got this machine to tackle some major food projects of which I have been dreaming!
great giveaway
i tweeted
great photo by the way and I am so making this
Mine isn’t working well anymore so I could really use this! 🙂
I want it! Give it to me, please. Mine just broke last week. Lymi!
Debating between a vitamix and a food processor. This would make the decision easy!
Thank you for the chance to win!
I just won a copy of your book and I couldn’t be more excited about it!!
I’m planning on canning tomatoes next weekend. I have so many other things that I could be doing, but I know I’ll regret it if I don’t!
I can’t think of a fun story to tell you, but I will have a fun story to tell everyone if I win this! 🙂
Awesome! Would love a food processor. I had a cheapo one and wore it out, been using a hand chopper.
hope I win!
Oh Thank you! What a wonderful give-away! Love it! Thank you so much! I would so love to have this. Food Processor seems to be the one kitchen appliance I am now missing (just got a kitchen aid last November!) We made salsa for caning two weeks ago – and one of these I know would have saved my poor arms and hands from chopping everything! Hope I win! Thank you again!
Once upon a time… I’ve got nothing, but winning would be wonderful!
Once upon a time, my mom got me a smaller KitchenAid food processor, but it’s so tiny that I have to make things in batches. This would be wonderful!
I tweeted! https://twitter.com/riegsecker/status/248234525887455232
please enter me to win!!
This is the Cadillac of food processors and I would LOVE to have this. I am dreaming about all the yummy things I could make with this.
Green smoothies all the way!-thanks for the chance to win.
We could really use this for our family!! Thank you!
The food processor looks amazing — it would be wonderful to win it. I enjoy the blog.
Wow. What a beautiful machine – I mean pesto. I have 3 huge basil plants. I’ve already made several batches of pesto and I’m determined to use every last basil leaf. It’s going to be a great winter, but it would be even better with 14 cups of pesto at one time!
yes, please 🙂
I bought a food processor once. Shortly after a small part of the bowl attachment broke and it hasn’t worked since! This looks like it would work better. Thanks.
oh boy! I would love this!
Nice giveaway. We were at the farmers market last weekend and they also had an abundance of vegetables, but all we bought were apples and a few tomatoes for sandwiches. My tomato plants are just about done 🙁 and the only thing growing in my garden are the weeds, basil and a few Okra.
Wow! mag(nificent) i(tems) mix(ed) by me if I were to win this awesome product!
This processor looks awesome. It would be perfect for my growing family. It does everything!!!
I shared on FB!!
My food processor just broke! I would love this!
I really enjoy your e-newsletter. So many cool ideas to try. Within the past year, I have been once again into trying new juicing ideas, smoothies and this machine is actually on my wish list. I keep burning through cheaper processors and juicers and really would like one that is powerful enough to do tough jobs without fizzling out after some usage. Thanks for your emails and your recipes. Good stuff!!!
I forgot to mention that I shared on Facebook too!
I have never owned a food processor in my life. However, I have seen friends who have one use it to do amazing things. I would love to own one someday and coincidentally my hubby and I were just discussing the possibility of purchasing one, but they are so expensive. I blend a lot because of my choices in cooking and the blender we have had since we got married almost six years ago is getting ready to give up the ghost. Hope my name gets chosen for this wonderful life easing tool.
Still don’t have a food processor!!
Hello! That food processor is awesome! I recently added “food processor” to my “to get” list. I keep finding recipes that use one and I’ve been procrastinating on trying some new things since I don’t have one. :-). Thanks for the chance to win this!
I need a real food processor. As in one that actually processes. This one looks good.
The smoothie attachment would be great for me to start incorporating more veggies into my diet, and the food processor itself means I can start making my own poi! (I’m usually too lazy/don’t have the time to make it the traditional way. =P)
Def just shared this on Facebook too. <3
