Giveaway!

It's that time again. CSN Stores -- you know, where you can find everything from contemporary coffee tables to Le Creuset -- has given me the opportunity to do a giveaway. One of you can win a $75 gift card to use on anything you choose at one of CSN's more than 200 stores!

There are three ways to enter:

Please leave a comment on one of my Examiner stories, and then come back here and leave a comment letting me know that you did so. I'd also love it if you'd offer some suggestions of what you'd find helpful for me to post on Examiner.

OR

Please leave a comment about your favorite post from this blog. What was it? Why do you remember it? Why do you love it?

OR

Please post about Pie in the Sky with a link to my seller page, letting people know what a great cause it is. Many people will likely buy pies for Thanksgiving anyways, and for just $25, they can get a pie from a great Boston restaurant or bakery and provide a week's worth of food to a Community Servings client. I don't get compensated for this in any way. It's just a really great cause, and I'm sad that I haven't sold any pies yet. People who don't live locally can even donate a pie to a Community Servings client. (Leave a comment with a link to your post for your entry in the giveaway.)

I will count one comment per person per each thing above (so you have up to 3 chances to win), and I will only count comments that follow the guidelines above. You have until Tuesday, November 2, at 11:59 p.m. EST to enter.

Good luck!

Thanks for the giveaway! Just left a comment on the butternut squash post. I'm obsessed with them right now so it definitely helped me learn to prepare it a different way. Thanks!

I like that you post articles about different ways to prepare what we find at the farmer's markets. I'm clueless sometimes so if you keep doing that, it'd be great :)

Great giveaway :-) I could always use a CSN gift card! I try to leave comments on your Examiner stories in general because I think you're doing such a great job!

And my favorite blog post...as you probably guessed...is the monkey bread! I love the photos of the bread, the little monkey and of course Gunner!

Jessie said...

The monkey bread! That thing is freakin' amazing, inspiring and i probably think about it at least once a week - attempting to think about making it and then wimping out. one of these days i actually will. i promise.

Emily said...

Fun - I am always up for a giveaway. I left a comment on you Examiner Back Bay Social Club post. My favorite blog post so far was the one in which you recapped your favorite fall dishes. It inspired me to start the season in the kitchen, and I can attest that the whoopie pies are to die for!

Lizzy said...

Amazing giveaway! I left a comment on your examiner and my FAVORITE post of yours was the apple cider doughnuts post! mmmmm. That sounds really good right about now : )

Michelle said...

Great Giveaway! I loved your post about the Apple Cider doughnuts earlier this month. The pictures really helped describe the process of doughnut making, and have made me much less scared to try and do it! Thanks!

A said...

Love the monkey bread post, very inspiring to me!

i liked your post on fried green tomatoes last august. believe it or not our tomatoes are just now finishing up, and due to a wet summer we have had plenty of unripe, green tomatoes to cook up. this summer my eldest daughter and i watched the movie 'fried green tomatoes' and made this dish!
thanks

I left a comment on your butternut squash post, yum :)

Victoria K. said...

I like the apple cider donuts posts, but I also really enjoyed hearing about your reunion with Joanne Chang at Flour :)

Shannon said...

hmm, favorite it tough!! but i'm leaning towards the post with the basil ice cream as it inspired a version of my own :) i'm also printing out the cider donuts now... hopefully i'll find time this weekend!

Shannon said...

i just commented on the farmers to you post (under ttfn300), but I would love to find out about more boston goings-on! you always go to such great events :) i had no idea you wrote for the examiner (or i knew and forgot), but i'll have to try and remember to check it out more!

Daisy said...

I've entered about a million of these. yet to win squat! My favorite blog post - oh it is so hard to choose. I love the ones where we've dined together because reading your perspective is always fun!! my favorite without being to cheesy was the last day at flour post. it meant to much to you and that really translated to your readers. Plus, it was so cool to see the behind the scenes!

Eden said...

Hi!
I'm a longtime lurker and I'm sorry I dont comment, I just dont do it all that often.
The day you left flour was my favorite. It was brave and I really felt your heart in that post. I of course love your recipes but I think you spilling your feelings really touched me.

Beth said...

I'm a new reader, so my favorite post is pretty recent. It's the Apple Tarte Tatin. I've never had the nerve to make it myself but hope to someday!

Alicia said...

I posted on your "How to make the most of the Farmer's market" - I think its a really great resource, especially for people who don't shop the markets often and tend to get overwhelmed....or for people like me who go without a list, a plan, or a bag, and end up at home with more produce than they can handle!

Alicia said...

One of my favorite posts is still your pumpkin patch cupcakes from last year....I can't believe you made all of those little pumpkin toppers out of marzipan!

Sharon said...

I like your recipe for easy homemade granola. Baking granola is something I too enjoy and I'm happy to have found a new recipe!

Sharon said...

I left a comment on your most recent article on examiner.com (Schmidty).

Without a doubt your post about homemade cider doughnuts. I find it quite intimidating so I am very impressed whenever you mention you are going to make them.

Fantastic giveaway! Your monkey bread post is one of my favorites, but being a fellow Bostonian, I think there are so many great posts that you've done about local events/places that it's hard to pick just one.

Our farmers' market is pretty limited, which makes it hard to plan." on your post about tips for going to the Farmers' Mkt. annejk112233(at)yahoo(dot)com ps I thought I left my name but then the comment form changed it back to anonymous.
