FLIPpin’ Awesome Giveaway
Hey everyone! How’s your morning going?? If you enjoyed a long weekend (yeahhhhh), here on some things that went down on the bloggy:
–Summer Shape Up Week 2 Workout went up!
-We planted our little garden
and
Last night, the pilot finally got the shrimp and prosciutto penne pasta he’d been hankering for:
Recipe is in *this cookbook*
I rolled with spelt pasta, olive oil, garlic, basil and tomato
and we both had salads with roasted beet, onion, goat cheese and balsamic
A perfect little meal 🙂
We chilled at the casa, I coerced the pilot to watch How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days (best movie EVERRRR, even with his snide commentary haha) and we called it a night 🙂
The plan for today is:
-3 training appointments
-Weights (upper body)
-Post office
-Clean downstairs
-Make raw strawberry tart for Thurs night girl’s night
-Insanity
-Back to work
Before I go…
here’s that giveaway I’ve been hinting at 😉
Remember my Christmas gift from the pilot??
That would be a Flip cam.. and I’m in love with it 🙂
Well, the lovely people at Cisco are generously donating a Flip Mino HD to a lucky Fitnessista. They’re running a video contest right now called “If your TV could do anything, what would you want it to do?”. The grand prize winner of that contest gets $10,000 (pretty baller), if you’re interested in entering.
For your chance to win a free Flip Mino HD right here on the bloggy, all you have to do is:
Leave a comment on this post answering the question “If your TV could do anything, what would you want it to do?”
My answer:
If my TV could do anything, it would allow me to reach into the screen and borrow Giuliana Rancic’s stylish and classy wardrobe 🙂

If my TV could do anything, it would give me samples of everything Paula Deen cooks 😀
If my tv could do anything, it would allow me jump into the scene with teh actors or chefs anytime I wanted!
If my TV could do anything, it would allow me to travel to all the beautiful islands and locations on the travel chanel! <333
If MY tv could do anything I’d love for it to transport me to all of the exotic locations I drool over!
I wish my TV would remember to record things when I forget to program the DVR!
If my TV could allow me to visit all the places I see on the travel chanel, and eat all the food I see on food network that would be the best!
If my TV could do anything, it would learn my interests and automatically suggest things to watch based on my likes of food, exercise and most importantly, Keanu Reeves.
“Smell-o-vision” as Rachael Ray says would be the greatest invention on a TV, IMO. Great contest!!
If my TV could do anything….
I would want it to let me jump into the screen and play “minute to win it” …haha that’s lame, but you know it looks fun!
If my TV could do anything, it would put those great carpenters, designers and chefs right in my home so I could learn to fix a toilet, faux finish a wall, and whip up a delicious meal splendidly. Could you imagine the look on my husband’s face if that were the case? I really would be wonder woman 😀
My TV would detect when I have missed something…like when I say, “What did he say?” and it would rewind automatically.
If my TV could do anything it would allow me to taste all the yummy foods on the food network. That would be the ultimate tv!
Have a portal system so I could eat everything on the Food Network
😀
If my TV could do anything, every once in a while IT would be the one folding laundry during Real Housewives (shh, don’t tell… it’s my guilty pleasure), doing push-ups and planks during commercials, and yelling like a wild woman when the Red Sox win.
Gina–
You are crazy awesome! Your blog was the first one I ever started reading, and sooo many months later, yours is still my number one and favorite blog to follow! The way you write, your awesome recipes, great workout plans, and lively personality make my day! Thank you for contributing so much to the blog world 🙂 🙂 🙂
If my TV could do anything, it would go read my mind and only show/play what puts me in a great mood at whatever moment I am sitting down…no intense dramas/stupid reality shows/yelling and arguing/crazy girls giving the rest of us females a bad rap….FN, Travel Channel, and Cooking Channel ONLY where the mood is light and the positive energy flows! w00p!
If my tv could do anything, it would serve me up dinner while I watch my favorite shows. 😀
i suppose if my tv could do anything I’d like for it to be my personal trainer, dietitian, and tutor! 🙂
p.s. nice sailor shorts 🙂
If my tv could teach me anything, it’s how to be a better cook!! I lack creativity with recipes.
Allow me to reach in & sample some amazing food on the food network!!
If my tv could do anything, it would be interactive! i.e. viewers could interact with the shows…hello cooking shows! 🙂
If my tv could do anything, it would let me hop inside episodes of Top Chef!!
Side note: the title to this entry is hilarious!
Oh if it could do anything?! Well totally transport me to the places I see on the Geographic channel
If my tv could do anything, it would have a smell-a-vision option. (It needs to be an option because there are certain things I don’t need to smell)
If my TV could do anything, it would allow me to “borrow” wardrobes from all of my fave shows. (Borrow as in I’m never giving them back).
I wish my TV would know when I have OTHER more important things to be doing and tell me to get off the couch and get crackin’…!!! Like a parental control feature for procrastinators, it’d be password protected and speak to me: “NO, I will NOT turn on for you until you’ve done . Once you have completed said task you’ll be given the passcode and can THEN be a couch potato!”
I’d be so much more productive! Why does TV have to be so fun!!!??? 🙂
It would let me go to all the resorts on the travel channel.
I would have it cook every meal I see on the Food Network and Travel Channel.
I wish i could watch any episode of my favorite tv shows…sort of like Hulu, but with a much more extensive listing of shows!
my tv would do everything everyone mentioned! i can’t pick one thing! i love the rewind automatically option, and the jump in the show option too!
I have been BEGGING my husband to get me one of these! We are having a baby in October and I think this would be the PERFECT hand held camera to record our memories!
IF I could make my TV do anything I would want to be able to talk to or steal the trainers on the fitness shows and have them train me! I am going to need it after October =)
yay for this awesome giveaway! I would love to have my TV be able to emit smell so that whenever there is a beautiful garden or scrumptious food on the screen, I could smell it!
If my TV could do anything it would allow me to “choose my own adventure.” That way I can control the fate of my favorite (and not so favorite) characters.
If my TV could do anything, it would let me pop in to hang out with Clinton and Stacy! (And maybe let me have that credit card, too).
My TV would play new episodes of my favorite shows whenever I so desired to watch. I hate when my favorites take a break in the summertime!
i would be able to travel anywhere and it would train me like one of the athletes on tv (i’ve always wanted to be a gymnast!)
=)
I’d love it if my TV was like a Star Trek Teleporter and could allow me to visit the locales where the shows are filmed. Whoosh! Off to Italy I go!!
Oh my goodness there are a million comments! 😀
I wish my TV would have a Figure Skating Channel, I’d never stop watching. I just love the sport to pieces.
If my TV could do anything, it would let me pop in to any Chicago Bears game that’s on…I live too far away to ever go!
ooh..if my tv could do anything it let me steal jillian as a trainer/life coach! I totally want to watch her new show =)
If my TV could do anything, I’d probably have it cook for me. 🙂 Or atleast clean up the kitchen after I cook!
I would get it to cook me healthy meals every night!! wait, that’s boring. I would get it to transport me to wherever I feel like going… at any point!!
I would want my tv to let me hop in the show I’m watching at any time. Especially if someone is eating really good food or there is a really cute guy! hahahaha
Holy awesome giveaway!! Thanks, Fitnessista!
If my tv could do anything, it would provide me with food samples of all the meals I watch being made on the Food Network (which is pretty much on 24/7 in my house!)
“If your TV could do anything, what would you want it to do?”
Two words. Smell-o-vision and taste-o-vision. It would also be awesome if it were interactive and you could touch the screen and order products directly from the TV and the bill would show up on your cable bill 🙂
I would really love my TV to iron all my clothes and dust…and spit out a gorgeous bunch of flowers every Friday and tell me how beautiful I am!!! 🙂
my tv would fold laundry and dust!
I would definitely want the TV to allow me to hop into the place that’s being shown.
“If your TV could do anything, what would you want it to do?”
Automatically turn off after too much use 🙂
Smell-o-vision!! Although that may not be such a great idea….
Great giveaway!
If my TV could do anything, it would wake me up every morning (except Sundays) and convince me to workout and be my own personal trainer! Woo
