Here's my gripe for the day!!! GGGGGRRRRR!!!!!! So yesterday I made some REALLY good burgers and got me thinking about entering in the Build A Better Burger contest by Sutter Home and so I did a little research and I was bumbed to say the least!! I found out that if you live in California or Utah you cannot enter! What's up with that jacked up rule!!! Apparently California has a law that states if a contest is being held by a company that does "x, y or z" (i.e. - their main profit is alcohol) and you stand to profit from winning said contest (i.e. - this contest the grand prize is $50,000) you are not eligible to enter!!!! GGGGRRR!!! Here inlies my problem! I love to cook and burgers are something that I am actually good at making and the good ole' state of California has to go and take away my possibility of winning $50,000!!!! What I could have done with that money!!! I know most of it would have went back to the state but come on, it would've been nice to pay off the car and get money back in the bank to maybe just maybe one day buy a house!!! Oh and then I thought well my dad lives in another state and since I got my love of cooking from him maybe he could enter and have fun with it!! Oh wait no he lives in flippin' UTAH, the other state that won't let you enter either!!!!! Well, I guess I am done with my rant for now.
