A Giveaway!


There's a lot to celebrate in October!

First  I want to wish all of you a fun and scary Halloween!

Second, I have been blogging two years this month. It went by in flash, didn't it?  So fast, I even forgot to celebrate my first year blogging last year! So to celebrate this blogoversay, I'm going to have a giveaway. Four fabulous cookbooks for four fabulous readers!
Drum roll, please....


How about that? Isn't this a super giveaway? Maida Heatter....Rose Levy Beranbaum.....Nigella.....and Dorie!

To win one of these lovely cookbooks, just leave a comment letting me know which cookbook is one you've always wanted and if you become a follower, you'll get two entries! (Please leave a separate comment for each.) And make certain I have your email address.
Have a lovely holiday week. 
I'll announce the winners on November 5th.

  10. I would like the Dorie book. Why? Because I want to jump into that pot and snuggle with the chicken. That's how good it looks to me. Is that so wrong?

  30. Barbara this is a great giveaway. I know Nigella and Dorie. I don't know the other two but I trust your taste.

    ReplyDelete
  31. I am already a follower!

    ReplyDelete
  32. OMG - I can't choose!!! Firstly, congrats on two years!!!

    I have always wanted Nigella's Christmas book, although that was because I didn't know of the other three!! I love chocolate, and am loving french food - although have no french food books....

    do I have to choose? I guess to answer your question - it would be Nigella's (as I have wanted that one for a long time)... but I would be happy with any.

    Congrats again!

    ReplyDelete
  33. Happy two years chica! Such an accomplishment.

    Hmmm...I think I would love the Rose Levy Beranbaum cookbook!

    ReplyDelete
  34. Two years is huge! Congrats!

    I have a serious cookbook addiction, so I'll take any of them!

    ReplyDelete
  35. I love Nigella, but haven't watched her show in years and *thought* I'd read all her books. I would love to win the Christmas book.

    ReplyDelete
  36. Anyone of these cookbooks would make the perfect addition to my collection but if I had to choose I would choose the French cookbook with all it's delicious Bistro recipes. I am trying to avoid sweets except the holidays are coming up...and fast!!

    ReplyDelete
  37. Wow two years! Congratulations to you Barbara! I would love Dorie's cookbook please and thank you!

    ReplyDelete
  38. Happy two years of blogging! According to Blogger, I am already a follower.

    ReplyDelete
  39. I don't know that I can choose... but if I must, let's say Christmas Cookies?

    ReplyDelete
  40. What a great give away!

    I'd love "Around My French Table." (Lots of butter and cream).

    ReplyDelete
  41. Congrats on one and two year anniversary! I didn't celebrate my one year either.

    I would love Nigella or Dorie I can't decide which!
