It's Here and It's a Giveaway

It's a giveaway on my blog. Never before have I hosted a giveaway even though it's a popular bloggers' pastime. That said, today is the day and here is the scoop.
1. Leave a comment and you'll be entered. Easypeasy!
2. Non-bloggers may leave a comment under anonymous, just "sign" your comment with your name.
3. These giveaway rules are making me feel pretty official when actually I'll dump your names in a bowl and draw one lucky winner.
4. I never did a giveaway because I never had anything so cool to give as I do now.
5. My sitemeter tells me I've had over 77,000 visits, 150 hits a day, but I get an average of 2.3 comments per post. WHO are you people? Beside knowing that you're shy, I know nothing about you.
6. It was a week of stalkers aka sweet and shy readers, introducing themselves to me out on the streets. This led to me wondering who are my readers.
7. My friend Ree,Pioneer Woman has many giveaways and she always tells us that she is having the giveaway because she loves us more than her luggage. I've always wanted to say that so here goes... Cuz, I love you more'n my luggage.
8. The prize!!! is the Lynden Christian School Centennial Cookbook. I just picked up my copy and yours from the school office. It is super thick with 500 recipes!
And the artwork is very groovy. Becky VH was the photographer and I am proud to say Miss Holly, who is my friend, over at I Wish I Were a Walton, was on the committee and her collections of groovy vintage items are used in the photos, along with torn recipe borders from the LCS 1930's cookbook.
9. There are some delicious recipes in the book, including Cran-Turkey Enchiladas. That recipe caught my eye and now they are all I can think about.
10. So, it's a contest, enter and you might just win it!
11. I like these numbered rules, better than blogging about the squirrel invasion at the Stone House or that an eat less, move more is going on. In a optimistic moment I returned the dress I bought to wear to Josh and Kristin's wedding and got the smaller size. Why do I do things like that? What was I thinking? In the summer when I love to BBQ and make new cocktail recipes... And now I want to bake Leslie's raspberry recipe.

I'm finding friend's recipes. Miss Leslie, my favorite raspberry farmer, submitted a yummy raspberry recipe that I can't wait to try.

Yummy fun! Enter today and tell me a bit about yourself. Like who you are, if you like mayo, if you're crazy, if you live on a boat, or tell me your dirty little secret. Well, maybe not that, but tell me something.

I'm off to my patio to drool over my new cookbook. Have a good weekend and enter through Monday evening.
