_______________________

Today, because it’s Friday, because good knives are fundamental to any productive kitchen, and because I love ya, I’m giving away 2 (two) Wusthof Classic 8-Piece Block Sets. Wusthof Classics are my favorite knives, and this is an awesome set.

 
 
santokuI’m also including a Wusthof Santoku knife with each set. It’s a great one!

 
Included in the 8-piece set:

 
sandwich6-inch sandwich knife.

 
 
bread8-inch bread.

 
 
knife18-inch chef’s.

 
 
paring3-inch paring.

 
 
knife24-inch utility.

 
…And of course, a good sharpener and the wooden knife block.

 
It’s a lovely bunch of knives, will last for a long, long time, and will make chopping, slicing, and dicing a breeze. If you win the set, be careful, though! If you’re used to using dull knives, you might use too much force with these and take your thumbnail right off.

 
And you need your thumbnail.

 
TO ENTER

What are you doing this weekend?”

Are you getting ready for school to start? Taking a last-minute excursion to the beach? Packing away your summer clothes (ill-advised in my neck of the woods, considering it’s 800 degrees outside)? Staying indoors and eating ice cubes?

Just share your weekend plans in the Comments section of this post and you’re automatically entered to win the knives.

 
THE RULES

One entry per person, please.

No entries after noon Pacific Time Saturday.

I so NEED some new knives. We have a joke in our family that everyone should keep the knives away from Mom who has a nasty habit of cutting herself with them. I've heard you only cut yourself with dull knives. Well, I must have a household full, 'cause I am a klutz in the kitchen. Maybe these would help! Thanks for offering them, Ree! You're amazing!

We had a packed weekend planned. Going to central OK to visit the in-laws and celebrate a birthday. Lots of swimming, food and drinks! Then my daughter and I were going to drive to SW OK for a bridal shower for my brother's fiance. However, my beautiful daughter has been sick for 2 days and is still sick this morning. Looks like it will be an uneventful weekend at home.
