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 Christmas – the snow, lights & family time!
I like the summer because the food tastes better.
I love the fall!
My favorite holiday is the 4th of July. I love the summer, being with family, a good bar-b-que, and of course the fireworks!! I love your site and all the recipes you share. Thanks for all you do!!
My favorite time of the year is Fall, the weather in Utah get nice and its perfect for family cookouts and great cooking. We love to head to the mountains where the leaves are changing and cook up some great recipes with the family.
I love spring because of all the good greens that are coming up and are finally available to eat (read: cheaper in the grocery store!)
Christmas!! Nothing beats that time of year (:
I love spring. The trees bloom and the grass turns green. The world is reborn into beauty.
I love summer!! Being an educator I don’t have to work and its when we spend a lot of time as a family!
Best season ever – SUMMER! Who doesn’t love ice creams and BBQ and fresh fruit?
My favorite season is summer. Lazy days, swimming, barbeque, and homemade ice cream!
I love spring! It’s the best to come out of the dark and cold, and start to see plants come up, play at the park again, feel the sunshine and warmth (but not melting-me hot)! It doesn’t hurt that it’s also time to celebrate my birthday, Easter, General Conference. . . so many great reasons to love SPRING!
Fall is by far the best season. APPLE. PIE.
I love summer (and not just because I’m a teacher). When I think of the greatest memories in my life, most of them have occurred during the summer season. Please come SOOOON. 🙂
I love the spirit of the Christmas season, being able to spend it with family, and lots of cooking and baking.
I like all the seasons, but today I would have to say spring is my favorite.
Summer is my favorite season, but Christmas is my favorite holiday! I love that we celebrate all month long and the focus is on the birth of our Savior. I love to establish giving traditions with my children during Christmas time. 🙂
Christmas is my favorite holiday! I love the baking.
We have always loved St. Patrick’s Day in our family, but since our twin boys were born on that day last year, it has become an even bigger favorite!
I love summer. No jacket required, etc…
I love Fall! Football, apple cider, pumpkins, beautiful changing leaves and cooler weather.
Summer is my favorite!! beach vacations:)
My favorite holiday is Christmas. The reason for the season is #1 for me.
Then there is the rushing, baking, decorating and almost everyone seems to be smiling. The expressions of the little ones make it all complete.
My fave season is fall! Love that that the weather starts to cool off.
I LOVE fall. I love the cool nights, abundant produce from my garden and of course football and always the football food!
I love the Christmas season with advent calendars, our church’s Christmas party/dinner with a visit from Santa for kids at a homeless shelter, our church choir concert, anticipation, giving gifts, the Christmas Eve service at our church followed by dinner with close friends . . . I could go on and on! Thank you for the opportunity!!
FALLLLLLLLLLL….the foods, the vegetables (all the different squashes), the scent of my favorite candles (pumpkin, spice scents, cloves, I could just go on and on), the colors (rusts, oranges, mustards, greens, browns—all the colors i use in my decorating. Warm feelings).
I love spring! I love the warmth after a long winter and all the gorgeous flowers that start popping up!
My favorite holiday is Thanksgiving! It’s all about family and food! What’s not to love?
Spring! So ready for it to start!
