In addition, I’ll give away one of my cookbooks!
There are three different ways to enter the giveaway (you don’t have to do all three, only if you want three times the chances of winning):

My sister saw you on TV and told me about you. I found your site and followed you as you finished out the first year. I loved that we could search the old site by the ratings that you gave the recipes. You were always right on the money. I just made the Hot Fudge cake for a small party today and everyone wanted the recipe. I told them all about you and then decided to look you up again. Thanks for giving us the courage to try cooking in a different way.

I live in So Cal and this summer, I started using (I'm a novice) my crock pot for summer cooking. One can only take so much in the salad dept. Lol!
For me, the highlight of fall is being able to turn on the "big oven"! That's about 5-6 months of built up anticipation and when the temps are low enough, look out comfort foods! Simply love it!
P.S. Gave your blog a thumbs up on babble.
