Letting the great taste shine: Simply Cranberry Cocktail Giveaway #SimplyCran

dish and glasswareWe’re slowly settling into the new house, and I’ve been busy setting up and decorating my two kitchens. The main kitchen has “great bones” and is full of light, but desperately needs new appliances and updating. The basement kitchen (part of a mother-in-law apartment) will serve as my food photography studio, dishware storage area, and office. (That’s my collection above. Maybe you recognize a few pieces from my pictures!)

I’ll be documenting the process over the months (probably years) here at This Mama Cooks! I’m excited about the project (and redoing the master bath as well) because it’ll be a chance for my husband and I to let our taste shine – which brings me to Simply Orange Juice Company.

This spring Simply introduced a new addition called Simply Cranberry Cocktail.  Like all Simply products, Simply Cranberry Cocktail is built on the foundation that the first step of anything being truly wonderful is a great foundation. Great taste – in decorating, cooking food or creating a drink – means starting with something authentic and letting its true expression come through.

How do you let your great taste shine? (Win a Simply Great Taste Kit!)

The folks at Simply and I want to know – How do you let your great taste shine? Is it in what you wear, how you decorate your home, or what you cook up at dinner time? Or is do you let your taste shine in other ways, like using Simply juices to create great drinks at an outdoor BBQ party?

I let my great taste shine by putting a lot of thought into what I cook every day. Plus, when I’m going to bring a dish to a get together, I make sure we’ve tested it and that it’s one of my favorite dishes.

I don’t have a place all to myself to decorate, so I let my great taste shine through my clothes and the inside of my car :)

David June 22, 2012 at 7:34 pm

I let my taste shine with garlic salt. That stuff can make fresh bread taste much better.

I let my great taste shine by not over paying for trendy chic but fad-based clothes and home accessories. I really don’t care what *insert celebrity here* was wearing at the Grammies or what kind of couch *insert tv show about home renovations here* used. I buy comfort and timelessness.

accessorize always something a watch a hat a bandana a bracelet a ring something

trisha mckee June 22, 2012 at 10:26 pm

I am just myself. I think when a person is true to him/her self, that person automatically shines.
