Brinware Plate & Mat Giveaway

April 20, 2012

Plastic plates and food trays. I just can't do it anymore. Trust me, I did for a while. Yes, they say "dishwasher safe" on the bottom, but as I gradually watched the paint peel off of them in wash after wash, I started to get a bit freaked out. As I once read somewhere, dishwasher safe means safe for your dishwasher — not necessarily you. Add to that concern the effects (both known and unknown) that piping hot food has when it comes into contact with plastic, and it's good enough reason to rethink how you serve your food. One side of me says, we'll I've made it to this age and heaven knows that I must have drank from and eaten off of much worse over the past 30 or so years, but with age also comes wisdom and in my opinion, stainless steel and glass are the best people-safe options for food.

Some moms of young kids have the very valid concern that glass breaks too easily. Enter Brinware. I recently got these beautiful Brinware plates for my kids and they just love them. I do too. Not only are they lovely to look at, but if they fall on the ground they are outfitted with brightly colored, removable silicone sleeves which are fun and protect the tempered glass plates inside.

Brinware is generously offering FIVE weelicious moms the chance to win a set of plates and their food grade silicone placemats. For a chance to win, just tell me what you're most looking forward to this Mother's Day. And if you simply can't wait to find out if you're one of the lucky winners and want to go ahead and get a set now, Brinware is offering weelicious readers a 20% discount! Just enter the code: WEE20 at checkout.

Good luck!

*Brinware is currently set up for domestic shipping only, so this contest is open to US residents only.*

    I’m most looking forward to making a mothers day package for my mom. I’ve just moved to the Westcoast and I’ll really miss her this year. I have pressed some cherry blossoms, and taken pictures of the first few days in my new home. I’m most looking forward to filling her heart with the love and appreciation she deserves!

    I’m looking forward to this Mother’s Day since it will be my first as a mother myself. My little boy will be 5 months old then and it’s been amazing to see him grow physically, emotionally and developing his own personality. I couldn’t imagine life without him.

    This Mother’s Day I am looking forward to spending time with my two beautiful children. Both under 3 years of age and being a full time working mother its hard to get enough time with these two cuties. They grow too fast and I just wanna create as many wonderful memories with them as I can!

    Looking forward to my first mother’s day as a new mom. where I will look to my son and realize I am forever his mommy in his eyes, and I will look to my mom in awe, wondering how she did it without the advances and high tech gadgets we have today.
