Hamilton Beach Is Giving Away 2 of My Favorite NEW Appliances!

CONGRATULATIONS TO PAULA CRAIN and JAMIE WALLACE! Paula won the Red Kettle and Jamie won the Voice Activated Coffee Maker.

Both are email subscribers, commented on the post, and Paula also posted on her facebook page. Please email your mailing addresses to service@southernplate.com. Thank you all!

Today I’m bringing you a chance to win one of  TWO of my favorite new and innovative appliances from Hamilton Beach!


kettle

This is the coolest thing since the microwave in my mind. You put this kettle down on the base and flip a little switch, in under two minutes, the water inside is boiling. BOILING! The product specs say that it boils water faster than a microwave and boy howdee are they right! Another great thing about it is that the bottom stays cool so you can just set it right out on your counter or table.

I love using this to make my iced tea because I no longer have to worry about forgetting the pot on the stove. With the lid on, as soon as the water comes to a boil, it stops. Want it to boil longer? Just take the lid off and it will continue to boil but still shut off before it boils dry. When the kids want hot chocolate, I put the kettle on the base and by the time I have the hot chocolate mix poured into the cups, the water is the perfect temperature for the kids and I just take it off the base and pour. Lightning fast, incredibly convenient, and awfully cute in the candy apple red!

Hamilton Beach sent me one of these and I’ve gone out and bought two more for folks on my Christmas list. They are difficult to find (Check Target) but one lucky member of our Southern Plate family will be getting one courtesy of Hamilton Beach!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Hey there, Coffee pot, Make me some coffee, please.

(It’s Voice Activated!)

coffee

Once again, the company that is continually bringing innovation into our standard appliances, This voice activated coffee maker is completely hassle free. Touch a button and it will ask you what time you want coffee brewed. Respond with the time and it’s good to go! Can you imagine how much nicer life would be if Hamilton Beach designed DVRS? I’ve been using a Hamilton Beach coffee maker for two years now and just love it. I’m a bit of a coffee nut so I can tell ya, I wouldn’t use a coffee maker that did not put out a good cup of joe!

One member of the Southern Plate family is going to win the kettle and one will win the voice activated coffee maker!

Check out these gorgeous children!

They had a lot of fun decorating the cookies from my  Cut Out Cookies For Santa Post. They belong to Amanda, who is a cherished member of the Southern Plate Family and very active on our Facebook Family Page.

She says “We enjoyed making them almost as much as we enjoyed eating them!”.

Thank you so much, Amanda, nothing thrills me more than seeing kids making memories in the kitchen!

Disclosure: Occasionally, I accept products for review on Southern Plate. However, my opinions are my own and I would never praise a product or company that I didn’t truly feel good about, because that isn’t the right thing to do. Sounds simplistic, I know, but the fact that something is or isn’t the right thing to do is pretty high up on my priority list. You may notice that negative reviews are for the most part nonexistent here. This is a conscious decision on my part. I want every aspect of SouthernPlate.com to be a positive experience and therefore if I ever receive a product or recipe to review and do not have something good to say about it or do not feel it will enhance the lives of our Southern Plate Family, I simply do not publish a review. This one would be the life lesson: “If you can’t say something nice, don’t say anything at all”. It’s funny how just about all of life’s most important lessons are learned before the age of five, isn’t it?

  4. I WOULD LOVE TO BE A WINNER OF EITHER OF THESE PRIZES. Just to let you know as I have mentioned to you before that I have now lost 130# this year. Aunt Lois

  5. Francie

    I love the the idea of the electric teakettle, it would mean I could get rid of the less than attractive one taking up valuable space on my stove top

  6. Sara

    Christy,

    You’ve made me excited to cook again. I’m not sure how I found your website, but once I subscribed, I’ve made several of your recipes. My friends received packages of the caramel corn as gifts. Today I purchased Pepperidge Farm puff pastry to try one more recipe.

    Thanks for your enthusiam and delight with life, and including your beautiful children!

    Blessings, Sara

    Coffee is my favorite beverage. Can’t live without it. AND I love red.

  8. Kiki

    Those Hamilton Beach people just keep on coming up with great ideas! Gotta get one of those kettles!!

  9. Charlotte Rhubottom

    I would love to have either one of those lovely gifts!My kitchen is red and black and either one would go perfectly!;) And I am a subscriber to Southern Plate, best blog on the web.

  10. Kathy Vanlandingham

    I would love either one! Thank you for the opportunity to enter and Merry Christmas to you and your family Christy!

    I didn’t realize there was a problem submitting a comment until I received the email today. I did submit a comment on the original post but don’t see it above. So….to get on with what my original comment said, I have used Hamilton Beach for many, many years. I still have my original hand mixer and it still works just fine for whipping up something quick. I use my stand mixer for most things these days. Folks, Hamilton Beach appliances hold up wonderfully! Would love either of these give aways as I am both a coffee & tea drinker and have been for about 50 years. Don’t tell anyone but I have burned up several whistling tea kettles over the years! I have been a subscriber to your email for some time now and thoroughly enjoy all your posts! Carol Brewster-Deitz in Florida

  12. Kathy

    Wow, love the giveaways. Maybe I will be lucky some day and win one. :-)

  13. Michael

    Well I don’t drink coffee that much but my oldest LOVES her tea. That little kettle is just the cat’s meow! Please excuse the antiquated expression. hehe Seriously though, that’s pretty darn cool. All the ones I have seen previously stay hot to the touch and can be sometimes dangerous. This one is on my list of things to buy!

  14. Phyllis

    Love you, Love your site! Spent the week making your Holly Jollys with my AL mother in law. Thanks for the great gift ideas, I’ve got a “mess” of chocolates to take back to the OBX of NC. You’re the best!

  15. kk

    What a great story. Thanks for sharing the stories and recipes.

  16. Susan Roddom

    Ohhhh! I would LOVE a coffee pot I could just tell it to make my coffee. That way I wouldn’t spill grounds or water everywhere in the dark while I’m still half asleep! Thanks for the giveaways, Christy. Oh, I subscribe as well.
    Thanks!

  17. Barbara

    I’d love to win the teakettle, and I have your cookbook!!!

  18. Karen Branscum

    I never grow tired of your post…I’m going to make this Sugar Plum cake…it looks so yummy….and coffee to go with it….~drifts in thought about sitting down at the table gazing mindlessly out the window while eating a piece of Sugar Plum Cake and sipping coffee imagining how the rest of the country is hurrying through the day!~

    Ahhh sweet moments….treats…mindless thoughts…and coffee….that’s what I want for Christmas…. ;)

    my mother-in-law would love the tea kettle – she is a tea queen.

  21. Gina Bukowski

    FINALLY!!! YEA!!!!

    Dear Christy~
    I love your webbsite and look forward to your emails (I am a subscriber). I found upon you by chance from a Laurie Berkner posting on Facebook (I follow you there too). I have 4 little ones, boys 4 and 6 and identical twin girls 1 1/2. The boys just made your snowman soup recipe for their classes. They also made (almost entirely by themselves), your monkey bread recipe Thanksgiving morning. I sent you a pic via the original email when I couldn’t get this to work. They were so proud. I am so thankful that I happened upon you and have turned many friends onto your site and Facebook following. I hope you and your family have a wonderful Christmas!
    Gina

  22. Diana Cruz

    Thanks for the chance to win! I love this website!

  23. Mrs. Morgan

    YAY! It works!!!!

  24. oh-em-gee! I love coffee AND tea so either would be great! I just bought a house and I do not have either!! I’m depending on Starbucks to make it through the days!!

  25. Nichole Renner

    What a cool coffee maker- with 4 boys If you could just holler and get a cup of coffees it would be great.

  26. Cara

    Wow, a voice activated coffee pot? What will they think of next!

  27. Diane

    I’m a subscriber and a tea drinker so I’d really really love the kettle. On the other hand, my coffee-drinking friends actually dread drinking my coffee, so the automatic coffee maker might make them happy. In any case, Merry Christmas to you and yours.

  28. WOW, a voice activated coffee maker? who knew? lol

    Thank you for the chance to win! although I don’t get a chance to comment as often as I like, I ADORE your blog and stories, recipes, etc.!!!

    Keep up the fantastic work!!

  29. I’m an email subscriber to Southern Plate and get excited everytime I see it in my inbox lol

  30. Sandy

    Oh, I love the tea kettle. My old one is starting to leak and this would be the perfect replacement. I just subscribed a few weeks ago, and love the recipes you’ve been sending. The Peanut Butter Scotchies bring back lots of good memories. My mom use to make them all the time and I haven’t had them in over 30 years. I’m making some tomorrow.

  31. dana

    I’m a subscriber – and love every post.

  32. Carolyn

    Nothing like a good hot cuppa to go with your great recipes!!!

    Merry Christmas!

  33. Barbara

    Love your site, good job Brady!!
    I also love the red teapot and coffeemaker. I am also from sharecropper stock, that’s what makes us strong women Christy. Keep up the good work.
    Barbara

  34. Jane

    Southern Plate is the greatest!
    Hamilton Beach is next in line.
    I have a HB mixer that I’ve used for over 50 years and it’s still going strong.
    Thanks for everything.
    Jane

  35. dana

    the tea kettle would be SO nice to have a work!!!! (and/or home!)=)

  36. Debbie in Texas

    I don’t need the coffee pot but would LOVE the tea kettle!! Thanks for the opportunity.

  37. petra

    yippee, it’s working. I had given up until i got your mail. I love the look of this kettle. We are moving this summer back to Germany (I do have an APO address) and i will have to leave my 220V Brown behind which heats up water super fast. This would be a great substitution

  38. lisa g

    Would love to win this!

  39. Lisa

    Would love the tea pot. Isn’t that the greatest idea? Haven’t seen them but I just dropped my old kettle last week and broke the handle so…… I need a new one.
    Made the holly jollies and they were so easy. Have to package them up for teacher gifts for the school Christmas party tomorrow. Merry Christmas!

  40. Judy H.

    That tea kettle sounds great! And I subscribe to your email.

  41. Tiffany D

    I like to make instant coffee from Folgers, so the tea kettle would be great! I love the “campfire” taste of their instant coffee!

  42. YAY!!! I’m so glad the comment field works for me now!
    You do come up with some wonderful give-aways…. I can just ~see~ that kettle on my counter!
    Kathleen in TN

    Jeannie in Ohatchee, AL

  45. Gracious – I thought I had left a comment but I see now that I hadn’t! Thanks for the reminder. The tea kettle is really nice and would be really handy. The coffee maker is just techno-fabulous!

  46. Deb

    I’m a Southern Plate subscriber and would love to win! Thanks and Merry Christmas to you and yours!!

  47. Jim H

    As a subscriber, I look forward to your emails and the interesting background you provide, along with some neat recipes. I’ll be trying the maple bacon cookies for fun and see what the reaction is. I will let you know.
    Reading about your seven cakes article, brings back a flood of memories growing up in the extreme cold in rural Saskatchewan, Canada which I will describe in greater detail at another time. Keep up the good job and the recipes, very enjoyable.
    Jim

  48. Jamie Wallace

    I love Southern Plate! Your recipes are the greatest! And I’m also an email subscriber so I guess that doubles my chances. Either of these would definitely be a treat. Merry Christmas!

    Hugs,
    Jamie
