This is a compensated review by BlogHer and Intel.
Let’s face it, life is busy. We, or maybe I should say “I” feel like I am always running around with my family just hoping to get everything I need to get done every single day. As a mom of 2 busy little boys, a wife, a recipe developer, website author and new cookbook writer, it is so very important for me to multi-task and use wise time management otherwise I am in big trouble.
I find it helpful to write down my responsibilities each week on paper so I can see them along with having family meetings so we are all on the same page then try to multi-task every chance I get.
When I come across things that make my life easier….and faster I am all ears.
I was selected by BlogHer and Intel to review a new computer powered by the Intel® Core™ i5 processor with Turbo Boost Technology that allows me to get more done in less time. Talk about excitement when I heard those words! The laptop is beautiful. I quickly opened the box and set it up all by myself. For someone who knows the bare minimum about running computers, I must say I was relieved how easy it was to get started.
An Intel® wireless display (akaWiDi) adaptor was also sent that allows me to use my HDTV a monitor. How cool is that? I can work on my blog or type recipes on the big screen in my living room. I can NOT wait to get playing on this new computer. Stay tuned to hear more about my experience!

Welcome to my online kitchen! Picky Palate is where you’ll find family friendly recipes along with the best Disney eats, tips and copycat recipes! 
Without a doubt I spent most of my time receiving and sending emails, but all other time is spent searching for and researching new recipes to make for my family and friends…just like the Cheesy Bacon Green Bean Casserole! Yum!
I’m on the computer every day from 8:30-5:00 working (and sometimes I browse the internet or check my Facebook) 🙂
I’m on the computer 80 percent of the time for fun! Then I squeeze in a little work too! 🙂
I keep in touch with my family and being a senior citizen I love go on blogs for food,crafts and needlework It keeps me alert and up to date. hugs Sally
I catch up with family and friends that live out of my area when I am online
I spend most of the time blogging or doing college work on my computer!
I read blogs, blog, and read news mostly!
My internet time is split between doing work for graduate school and reading blogs for fun.
definitely surfing for ideas
Nothing but work for me but early mornings I surf the web

I spend a lot of time on it for work but I probably spend more time reading blogs!

Honestly I spend 80% playing the the rest of the time pretending to work:) OK maybe more work than that…. !
I spend most of my time looking up recipes, looking and also editing my own photos. 🙂
Reading blogs LOL!!! I’m addicted 🙂

Most of my time is spent on the computer working at night when my little man goes to bed!
I spend most of my computer time surfing food blogs! So fun!
I spend most of my time reading blogs!
honestly , surf the internet. but updating my blog would be much nicer with a nicer computer…
A lot of time writing papers, researching, and doing school work. And of course an equal amount of time procrastinating surfing the web!
For work during the day, keeping up with blogs @ night when I get the chance.

I submitted my response to the question at the link provided also!
I read food and healthy living blogs about 70% of the time!
Searching for recipes and reading blogs!
I spend most of my time surfing – email, blogs, Facebook!
looking up recipes 🙂
Most of the time I’m working on pics I’ve taken but I also like to peruse the internet and blogs. 🙂
Love this. I mostly surf, shop, blog and email. Of course, I also pay bills, make photo books, and facebook. I need a portable computer so bad because my only one is in the basement and it’s not always convenient with four little ones to attend to!
i spend alot of time updating my blog and stalking others!
I spend 8 hours a day behind my computer for work, but in the evenings I love to surf the net looking at other blogs or updating my own blog…I can easily lose track of time this way!
I spend most of my time on the computer looking up fun new recipes (Picky Palate of course!) to make for my finace and I. I’ve just started my journey in cooking and love to find recipes worth making again. When I’m not recipe hunting, you will find me on Skype chatting with my nieces and nephews!
Sounds fun!! Very cool!
I spend most of my computer time at work. I’m a software developer, though, so that’s not horribly surprising.
Eeek…I confess…recipe blogs are my guilty pleasure! Love yours & would LOVE $250 at Best Buy! 🙂
Checking my emails takes the most of my time. I get so many newsletters, recipes, store/coupon emails, etc. Just takes time to delete them after they pile up! Staciele(at)netins(dot)net
