I'm still laughing at the idea of Olive Garden giving away trips to culinary school in Italy. Why don't they send their cooks instead??

Hi Marilyn! This little light is just four inches long by about 1.5 inches wide and comes with a little travel case. The package says (I peeked) that it uses special LED technology (whatever that is) and the bulb never has to be replaced. Oops! It does take four AAA batteries, though. I misread the info on the package. It's the <i>bulb</i> that lasts 100K hours, so you'll still need to replace the batteries!

Ah, but that's great, Betsy. Extra batteries are easy to take along or even buy, but extra bulbs are rather fragile and impossible to purchase in some remote area of the world. I'm going to look into it. Thanks and Happy Holidaze!
