Do you ever have those days where you feel like the universe is conspiring against you? Getting today’s post ready was painful and it was not happening. So…change of plans.
If you’ve just joined us in the last few months, about 2 years ago, we wrote a book.
And people liked it! Like…it became a national bestseller! So we wrote another one…
And that one became a national bestseller. Which was awesome.
Some other awesome things about our books?
-There is a picture for every recipe.
-It has a spiral binding on the inside so you can lay it flat while you’re cooking, but the spine is printed with the title, so you can find it when you need to.
-It has this adorable bookmark with a conversion chart on it.
-Both books have a “rollover index” where you can look up recipes by ingredient. So if you buy a whole quart of buttermilk or a bunch of cilantro and you’re looking for a way to use them up, we’re your girls.
So since things were not going my way today, I’m having a bowl of ice cream and giving away 3 books to 3 lucky friends!
Here’s the deal:
-To enter, leave a comment on this post telling us your favorite season, holiday, or tradition.
-The giveaway runs from today, 3/6/13 until 3/13/13.
-We’ll pick 3 winners and notify them via the email address they use to enter the giveaway. Be sure to use an email address you check often and not the email address you use when you order something from Bath & Body Works because you know you’re going to get 10 advertisement emails a day.
-The winners will get to choose either Our Best Bites: Mormon Moms in the Kitchen or Savoring the Seasons with Our Best Bites.
–The winner must respond within 48 hours of when we send the notification email. If we don’t hear from you, we will select another winner.
-If you want to forgo the whole contest thing, you can purchase the books from Amazon, Deseret Book, Costco, Sam’s Club, Walmart, and many other bookstores. If you are unable to find it, any bookstore should be happy to order it for you.
Ready? Set? Go! I’m gonna go eat some ice cream and lick my sad corrupted memory card wounds…
I love spring. I love everything coming to life, the nicer weather, flowers blooming, etc. Plus, our anniversary is in the spring and our first child will be born this spring.
I love being able to garden in the summer!
Right now our favorite season is spring – because we can’t wait for it to get here!!! One of our favorite things about spring is that we always get a batch of new baby chicks. We love having fresh eggs!
I love you guys! Summer is my favorite season — nothing beats a good summer bbq. I use your first cookbook constantly so I would love to add the Savoring the Seasons to my collection!
Living in Minnesota it has to be the Springtime! We’re almost there!
I love fall! The food, weather, clothes, pumpkin-carving, the excitement of the holidays, I just love it!
LOVE your stuff!!! Our fave season is fall — football, Halloween, birthdays galore! Fave tradition is picking pumpkins and carving them!
Spring!! There’s nothing better after a long, cold winter than some warm sunshine and crisp, spring air!!
My favorite season is spring! My sister in law raves about your cookbooks so I would love to win one!
My fav holiday is Easter!
SUMMER!! Thanks for the wonderful giveaway!
I agree with you that it’s fun to select the family traditions we grew up with and make them our own. I have really grown to love Thanksgiving, a favorite holiday of my husband and in-laws. Beside the wonderful food, it’s a low-key family day w/o the added stress of gift-giving. It’s a highlight in our year! Oh, btw, I have both cookbooks (which I LOVE) and I would share one with a dear friend if I win.
Fall is such a nice change from the hot summer temps. I love the wardrobe change, the food, and the holidays!
Christmas Day by far is our Fav Holiday and all of our traditions seem to revolve around food (& football, but that’s another story!). We eat the same Christmas morning b-fast every year. It’s a recipe born or necessity and is really old. Cream Toast which is basically “S$!# on a Shingle” (tryin to keep it clean!) and started out 80 years or so ago in Michigan on the family farm by Great-Grandma as a way to use up old bread soaked in warm milk and was called Milk Toast..my grandmother thickened it up with a roux and added cut up hardboiled eggs..rich warm and creamy over toast..we must eat it first before any presents are opened..so it’s torture for the kids but it’s total holiday comfort. Thanks for the contest!!
I love the fall time! the weather isn’t unbearable and i can wear dresses or long sleeves and scaves!! i love when the leaves start to change also! and pumpkin is a favorite of mine and i love going to the farms around and seeing the pumpkins!
My favorite season is fall. I love everything about it, but especially the baking.
love your recipes, and would LOVE this cookbook! my favorite holiday is valentines day..love it!
hope your day gets better! thanks for the cute giveaway..xo
Though I certainly love the Christmas season, I also LOVE spring…the warmer weather, the colors of the season, the budding trees and flowers, celebrating our Risen Savior and my birthday!
Love your blog, recipes and your books. Would love to win one!
Thanks for letting me enter!
My favorite season is SPRING! Everything is NEW again! 🙂 Thanks for the chance to win one of your cookbooks.
I love fall/Christmas! Just with pumpkin and mint (not together!) there are so many delicious options!
I love fall..:)
Great giveaway! My favorite season is Summer! I love all of the great foods and desserts that go along with the Summer months, and of course the warm weather too!
My favorite tradition is getting to plan your birthday meal and birthday cake – i have picked out my cake this year Boston cream pie cake – the meal I am still thinking about. As with most things dessert comes first!
My favorite holiday is Christmas!
Fall is my favorite season. I live in the desert so it’s hot 9 months out of the year and I love when the cooler weather rolls in and my family and I can enjoy the warm goodies of the season.
I love the Spring! I have almost bought your books so many times! I would love to win one!
I am a four seasons kind of gal. They are all a welcomed change in my life.
My favorite holiday is Christmas! I love everything from October to January 1!
Spring and Fall…I love the relief of the spring’s warmth after winter and Fall’s cool weather after a hot summer!
Too many choices!! Going to say summer, spending time with the family and creating new memories and new favorite recipes. Perfect combo!
