Take a Moment and Make it Delicious

by Briana Carter on September 25, 2009

I don’t normally post about contests but this is a fun one for an awesome prize!  Starting today, enter the Take a Moment & Make it Delicious campaign by uploading a video of yourself, family, or friends to show what you would do with just 1-2 extra minutes a day.

Upload your 5 minute or less video on the Take a Moment and Make it Delicious Facebook Contest page from September 25h – October 25.

After the entries are submitted, 25 videos will be selected and users will be allowed to vote for their favorite. The video with the most votes will win a $10,000 family vacation! We could all use one of those!

We also had an opportunity to test out some of the convenient and time saving frozen meals from ConAgra including Healthy Choice, Banquet, and Marie Callender’s. I think the family favorite is the Marie Callender’s! Frozen meals are something I like to have on hand for those nights I don’t feel like cooking.

While you are there, I would love you to join the Bargain Briana fan page!
