A Mouse in a Jam?
GO Packers! And GO tailgaiting … or home parties in front of your big screen! GO any type of opportunity to get together and be a cheesehead! hehe
I had to get that jab in there, of course.
I sent a Smucker’s contest promotion to my webmonster, Tammy Harrison, and she replied that she loved to use Smucker’s Grape Jam in her barbeque sauce for little smokies during football gatherings. hmmm, not something I’ve heard of, but certainly something I’ll try next time I’m getting ready to scream from my couch-coach position during a Packer’s game!
This summer, families will gather together around tables across the country to share meals and memories. The J.M. Smucker Company wants to honor this time together and help families keep their traditions alive throughout the entire year.
As families think ahead to their next big gathering – perhaps a summer family reunion or Fourth of July get-together – Smucker® is eager to hear from them about the memorable recipes and traditions their families share. Between June 16 and August 11, 2008, people are invited to submit their original recipe made with at least ¼ cup of one of the following Smucker’s products: Smucker’s jams, jellies or preserves (including Low Sugar brand and Sugar Free products) that has been passed down for at least two generations and an original 200-words or less essay telling the story behind how their recipe makes family celebrations special. Smucker will post these traditions and recipes on its Web site and sweeten one family’s next gathering with a five day, four night family trip for eight to the Walt Disney World® Resort.
The grand prize family package for eight includes airfare, transportation to/from the airport, hotel accommodations for four nights, five-day Magic Your Way Tickets with Park Hopper® option and commemorative Disney T-shirts and photos. The top entries will be posted on the Smucker’s Web site on or around September 8, 2008 and visitors to the site will be given the chance to vote to help determine one grand prize winner.
For official contest rules and prize details, visit www.Smuckers.com.
A family-run company that has passed down time-honored recipes for the past four generations, Smucker looks forward to hearing from your readers! When people visit the “Spreading Smucker’s Traditions” contest site, they will also find family reunion planning tips, a free downloadable family tree and Smucker’s jams, jellies and preserves recipes that will help them create the perfect meal from appetizers to entrees to desserts, every time, with a diverse range of jam, jelly and preserve flavors well-suited for any taste or occasion.
GO Packers! GO Smuckers! GO Mouse!
