Our Blog is a conglomeration of conversations which took place around the breakfast table in one or another Bettina Network home. We cover a wide range of topics.
As members of the Bettina Network Community send us information they would like disseminated to a large audience, or something happens which just strikes our fancy and we want to share it with all of you - it will go immediately to Bettina Network's Blog.

Reader Feedback
Thank you so much for your review of Cuisinart VS KitchenAid mixers. I have been debating which mixer I should buy for several months.
