A couple of things…
First, don’t forget about Presto Pasta tomorrow.  I am hosting and you won’t believe some of the amazing dishes submitted so far…but I know I am missing one…YOURS! Be sure to submit it soon.
Second, the cool folks at Eggology are doing a promotion for Earth Day.  They emailed me and asked me to ask YOU to participate.  It’s because you guys are so cool, you know, everyone wants to be your friend.
Anyway.  They are inviting you to let them know what you are doing to respect the environment; at home, at the office, where ever.  Just go …read more

 
The image has nothing to do with anything..I don’t care for pages without illustration..however if you want the recipe, that is my version of the oh-so-addictive Berger cookies…

Well, it is that time again. And THIS time I have been able to be organized enough to participate both here and at Kettle and Cup, although it may be a few days before the post goes up at Kettle and Cup so be patient. You will like the prize there.
But here…What can I do here? I mean, I have given away aprons and Dorrie Greenspan cookbooks..and chocolate cookbooks…Oh my what is left?

It must be in the air..there are a ton of contests going on, and as far as I know, we did not plan it this way, pinkie swear.
Check out Jennifer’s post at Tree Hugging Family for links to all the contests!

Welcome to this week’s installment of Saturday Surfing… First of all, I want to remind you guys about the contest here at Baking Delights. You only have to blog it to enter for the cookbook, or leave an idea for a tagline to enter for the gift certificate. Be creative. Please? Taglines are NOT my best thing..in fact I am thinking of starting a website called Taglines-R-not-us for people who really want bad tag lines.

If you look to the left you will see the tagline for Baking Delights. It says, Baking, you cant beat it!
Which may be true, but it is starting to bore me. Lacks charisma, luster, and ooo-lala, you know?
So here is the deal. I need a new tag line. And you want to win a contest. Come on, you know you do.

Nope..not here! Really, guys, I am done with giveaways for a week or so. Nope, this is at A Cowboy’s Wife’s blog. Hurry up and go check it out…but just remember…the mixer is mine. Here are all the details…

Tomorrow is the last day to register for the cookbook giveaway.
I’m Dreaming of A Chocolate Christmas will be sent to you, via Amazon, in time to read it during the down time between Christmas and New Years! Be sure and leave a comment/blog post for a chance to win!
I think this cookbook is totally awesome! Let’s face it..great pictures…chocolate….life just doesn’t get better than that, does it?
Also, if you have not registered to win free coffee every week over at Kettle & Cup you need to head over there right now and do so!
Hmm..so if I blog about my own …read more

And I just realized I forgot about the contest announcement. YIKES!

So…I won’t ramble on and on with this one. First the prize.  I’m Dreaming of  a Chocolate Christmas by  Marcel Desaulniers and Ron Manville
This is an incredible cookbook filled with chocolate and everything yummy for Christmas and throughout the year. It is brand new with a publishing date of  October 2007. If you love chocolate, if you love Christmas, if you love good pictures you gotta have this book.  And I, for one, would love to have it sent to you. Not in time for Christmas baking but JUST in …read more

I bet you never expected to see a picture of green beans on Baking Delights, huh?
The thing is, as I share my love of cooking with the people around me, who are mostly my kids, I instinctively pass on bits of information that make huge differences in the end product. I realized last night as I was photographing supper ( can you imagine how twisted my kids are?  Their mom photographs everything before they bite into it.. ) that I don’t tend to do that here…I might write, “salt this”, or “cut this in pieces”, but because …read more
