CONTEST!!

First of all, a big thanks to my sister-in-law, Nancy, who has my brother begging her to make some of Grandma's favorite recipes and meatballs were her specialty and Nancy has picked up on the talent as well! You will see more of Nancy's Talents on this blog in the future!

Hopefully we will see a post from my sister Kristie on Grams delicious fudge and Christmas Candies!

OK so I absolutely love love love contests and I am going to do these periodically...so to kick off Christmas Cookie Baking time I am going to give a way to one of you a Betty Crocker's "Cooky Book." My grandma had one just like this book and they are reprinting these books just like Grams' and I received one for Christmas from my very thoughtful mother-in-law, thanks Grammy Pilgrim! This "Cooky Book" takes me back to my childhood, looking through Gram's book and dreaming of all the cookies she would make from them...the pictures make you want to bake the cookies right away! YUM!!

(This is a picture of my book, a new one will be shipped directly to your house in time for holiday baking)

So here is how to win this fun book! **The purpose of this contest is to first see who is looking at our blog so we can select recipes that suit you, secondly it is too get people commenting and interacting with our recipe blog and third expand our readers. All you need to do is comment on this blog. Each time you comment on the blog your name will be placed in a draw, one entry per comment **(one entry per post so that we can see your thoughts and comments on recipes or format...we want to start some interaction we love feedback and requests....which a few of you have already been doing and we have loved it!) You can get additional entries, one additional entry for adding your name to our list of followers. You can get additional entries one for each new person you bring to the blog. When you bring a new reader, they need to comment and mention your name in the comment so I know who sent them... I will then add one more entry for you and add them to the list of entries and so on....Depending on the response to this contest I may get crazy and draw out multiple winners, each getting their own "Cooky Book." Since the nature of this contest is to help share Grandma's Recipe blog with others, this contest will run starting October 28th, 2008 until Midnight November 15th, 2008. On the morning of the 16th I will do the drawing(s) and winner(s) will be posted by that evening with instructions for me to privately receive your shipping address!

Good Luck! Let me know if you have any questions!!!

**The asterisk signifies clarifications I made on 10/29/08 per questions on the comments. If you want addition entries start spreading the news of our blog and tell people to leave a comment with your name....those are unlimited entries! I am so excited with your responses so far and we do want more readers so "start spreading the news" and make sure they let us know who told them so you get more entries!!
