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…
My favorite tradition is definitely Sunday dinner. Growing up in a family of 8, the dining room table became our gathering place. My mom always made family and friends alike feel loved and welcome while we enjoyed good ‘ole Southern comfort food. To this day we still have Sunday dinner with my parents and siblings, and I have friends who are grown and married with kids who still like to stop by for Sunday dinner now and again.
My favorite season is spring!
My favorite season (especially after this long and snowy winter) is spring. If only it would come! Once the weather turns warm, I can let the kids out in the backyard and get some much needed peace and quiet inside!
My favorite season always the season we’re in 🙂 I love Christmas at Christmas time, but now it’s spring and I couldn’t be happier! I love the fresh berries and the weather warming up. I’m so excited for Easter and April Fool’s day 🙂 I love the spring!
right now, no holiday sounds better than the 4th of July. Bring on Summer!!
I love all the seasons!
Spring! Flowers, sunshine and march madness!
My favorite season is spring. It’s finally warm enough to get out of the house and see the world. And I get to eat lots of watermelon.
I just want to say that they best cooks are Mormon moms! When I moved to Utah the best thing was going for dinner for my friend’s houses <3 And my favorite holiday is Christmas 🙂
I glanced through one of your books and would LOVE to have my own!!! A picture for every recipe is extremely helpful! My favorite season is Fall. So many good foods and flavors, warm and comforting!
Christmas Season for sure!!! Love, love, love this blog!
Christmas with family is by far my favorite!
Hope your day gets better! My favorite holidays are Valentines, for the red and pink and hearty goodness, and Christmas because I love giving and receiving gifts. And St. Pat’s for the beer. = )
I like winter the best since where I live now it’s always like summer. Wish I would be able to see some snow here. Also, winter is good since it has all the holidays(Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year’s day) with all the food I like.
Halloween is, by far, my favorite holiday/time of year! I love fall, with all of the wonderful colors, cooler weather, and harvest!
I live in AZ, and love what we call spring. To the rest of the country it’s still winter, but it is absolutely gorgeous here. It makes me want to grill and make salads a lot, which is a good thing. But it’s still cool enough to bake if I feel like it (unlike summer when we pretend the oven doesn’t exist).
I love fall. I love seeing the leaves change colors. I also love the my daughter’s birthday is in the fall, and mine as well. I also love fall because we get a break from the hot, Texas summer.
I love Halloween! The creepy, spooky stuff is my favorite. I hate the bloody, gory stuff though. Plus my favorite foods and flavors start to come out. Pumpkin, hot cider, stews… I could go on!
Spring! Flowers start to bloom, the grass turns green and the leaves come back on the trees. It’s like everything comes back to life!
My favorite season is the college football season!!!!
There’s something I love about every season but I think fall is my favorite!
My favorite tradition is the service gifts that we exchange at Christmas. Each person in the family gives everyone else a piece of paper (or several) with a service written down that they will perform for that person, redeemable throughout the coming year. Even my 3 year old participates and it’s such fun to see what the kids come up with!
I love fall.
I love all the distinct seasons, but my favorite is Fall. 🙂
My favorite season is RIGHT NOW! But I like Spring, Summer, Fall and Winter too!
My favorite season is fall – although I love all seasons and really appreciate the blessing of living some in a place where we have 4 distinct seasons. There are wonderful things about every season, but by the end of each one, I’m always (or nearly always) ready for the one to start. =) – Thanks for the great give away! I hope you’re able to recover your membory card!
My favorite season is Spring! We can start playing and eating outside again! Yay!
I love spring and all the joy of feeling the sun again, though my favorite seasonal tradition might be the onslaught of soup making that happens when Fall hits.
I love the 4th of July- cook-out, fireworks, family…what could be better?
-m
I love the 4th of July because there are so many fun things to do with food! I would love the Savoring the Season’s cookbook because I don’t have it yet 🙂 I have your other one and I LOVE it!!
