GE Monogram Experience Center with the ever oh so cool light fixture that reminds me of some exotic sea creature. It’s going to be tough to come back home to my kitchen after basking in this awesome-ness.
Congratulations to Caitlin from Pacifier in my Pocket! She’ll be joining me on this luxurious learning experience with GE. Thanks to everyone who entered!
I’ve been invited to join a small group of bloggers for a luxurious learning and sharing opportunity at the GE Monogram Experience Center, an amazing 9,000 square foot complex and culinary center in Louisville, Kentucky.
And one of you gets to come with me!
GE is hosting this “Momsperience” in May which will feature sessions focusing on challenges in the kitchen and Entertaining made simple, as well as other topics. The GE Momsperience also will include seeing some of Louisville’s hotspots.
In addition to the bloggers invited, GE is offering all of us the opportunity to bring along a reader!
Yes, you read that right.
The GE Monogram Experience Center is typically only open to visits by architects, designers, contractors, and other home-industry professionals, so this will be a rare treat. GE will cover airfare (or mileage reimbursement if you are driving), hotel, meals and ground transportation in Louisville and a concierge will make your travel reservations so you don’t have to lift a finger.
My biggest challenge in the kitchen is prepping and serving quick and easy family dinners, without resorting to opening a box of mac n’ cheese…not that I’d ever do that (wink.) We need easy meal plans, but we need also need healthy meals. My husband and I are both in our 40s now and we need to keep up with two very active little girls.
Now, on to the fun part!

My biggest challenge in the kitchen is meal planning and intimidation. Meal planning is meal planning, and we all know thingsare better when we do it. But intimidation is tough for me. I wish I could just get over the hump of the same-old to try something new, but I always worry it wont turn out good. And my family isn’t even picky! I am sabotaging myself with the intimidation.
My biggest challenge in the kitchen is time. Between working full time and going to school part time in the evenings, it’s hard to find time to wait for water to boil or the oven to pre-heat so I can have a nutritious meal to put on the table for my family.
My biggest challenge in the kitchen is coming up with new ideas that are family friendly. I get tired of making the same things again and again!
And, I like your fb fan page
My biggest challenge in the kitchen is time and energy. I really like getting my family around a table together, but it is so hard for me to actually make the meal.
My biggest challenge in the kitchen is the part between, “Uh, we gotta eat something” and loading the dishwasher.
Other than that, it’s all good.

Honestly, I have many challenges in the kitchen, but I guess my biggest one would be time! I work F/T in the city so by the time I commute home on the “lovely” train, get my daughter at daycare, and finally fight our way through the rush hour traffic it’s after 6:30pm and we’re all starving. Some nights I just don’t feel like there’s enough to make a nice dinner. And yes, I’ve tried the old crockpot thang, but somehow I still manage to mess it up! LOL
I’d love to go away w/ you on this trip. Thanks for the chance!!
I liked your FB page.
This would be a dream trip! You have so many fun opportunities.
Just realized I was supposed to add my greatest challenge…following directions, obviously, while trying to cook (or type) with a baby in my arms! Which pretty much means I only cook things I already know how to do, and then, get stuck in a real rut.
My greatest challenge in the kitchen? (I assume you mean besides the fact that I am so culinary challenged I have the ability to catch frozen vegetables on fire and need a manual to use any of my own appliances?) My kitchen is so small I have to leave to change my mind. And? I have a problem where my dishes reproduce when I put them in the sink. It’s the darndest thing. Put in one cup, the next day there are 4. Those are just a few of my kitchen challenges. We are what you would call “frenemies.”
I would love to see what GE can do with a REAL kitchen and not the “hallway” they call my kitchen!

Hi. Great opportunity. Thanks for sharing with your readers. Counter space is my biggest issue. It’s really tough when you want one of every appliance available. Also lighting. I need more and I also want it to be adjustable, bright for cooking, low for evening so the kitchens not dark, but also it needs to be green and energy efficient.
Thanks for letting me add my 2 cents. Hugs…Tracy

My biggest challenge in the kitchen is that it’s archaic—-circa 1945. Imagine loving to cook, and having a family of foodies (including two vegetarians) yet working without a single counter or adequate prep surface. I end up doing things on a cutting board atop my stove—which means I have to clean the stove top 10x more than the average woman. Though spills, peels and plops prevail, I still love to cook.
Привет! Хорошее здоровье будет если правильно кушать. Мы всей семьей много кушаем. Не хотим иметь лишний вес.
Hi! Good health would be if it is right to eat. My whole family eats a lot. Do not want to be overweight.
