Going to Blissdom and Scavenger Hunting! (WIN)

Update: Scavenger hunt is closed. The winners are commenter #3 and #20. Check your emails. Thanks for playing, everyone.

Hi there. I see you!

If you're peeping in, wondering what I am doing, well I am packing for Blissdom. I am excited to go to Nashville and learn. It's my first trip to Tennessee and my first trip to a blogging conference. I am going thanks to the wonderful folks at Country Bob's All Purpose Sauce.

Before marriage and kids, I worked for a newspaper for 10 years. I also worked at a radio station for six years. That being said, I have been to a bunch of press conventions. I wonder how a blog convention differs. We shall see. I have only flown alone one other time in my life, so we will see how that works out as well.

If you don't already, follow me on Twitter @PotamusPrefers and also @CountryBobs, because I'll be tweeting about my adventures and giving away some fun and tasty Country Bob's merchandise (to people at home as well as at Blissdom).

And, since I am on a scavenger hunt of my own right now looking for travel sized bottles of shampoo and the perfect bag to pack everything in, I want you to go on one too!

Head on over to Country Bob's website and look for three things. First I want you to tell me who came up with the Country Bob's All Purpose Sauce recipe, what year he perfected it and the name of one other item Country Bob's sells on their website (besides All Purpose Sauce).

Once you've hunted down those three answers, come back here and comment below with your findings. I will draw TWO people randomly from the correct answers at 9 p.m. central time tonight (about the time I'm finished packing, probably) to win a Country Bob's Gift Pack with Cookbook (ARV $32 each). Please note that I will put all comments into moderation until then to make it fair for everyone. All answers will appear in the comments section at the end of the contest tonight.

Pssst... For an extra entry, tweet about this scavenger hunt so others can have fun, too! For one more entry, tell me something you learned about Blissdom from the website.

Fine Print: Country Bob's All Purpose Sauce is the official sponsor of Potamus Prefers for Blissdom 2010 and is providing the giveaway prizes listed.

I visited the Blissdom website and learned that Social Media 101 is a workshop being given that looks like it is a great introduction to social media.

Country Bob Edson is the name of the person who invented the recipe.

1968 was the year the sauce was perfected.

Barbecue Sauce is another product they sell.
