This Week In Cookbook Give-Aways
I'm always searching for good blogs. I think I spend WAY too much time doing this on a daily basis! Here's the scenario: Someone comments on one of my blog posts, I go peek at their blog, I look at their blogroll (to see if I'm on it, which of course I should be!), and it takes me to another blog, and another, and another. You get the picture! It's like a wild goose chase.
By the time I'm done, hours have gone by with my nose in the computer screen gawking at food porn! Some times it brings me to some great give-aways like the ones below. There's a good bet that my 2 favorite sites, Serious Eats and Apartment Therapy's Kicthn, will have weekly give-aways and they're usually giving away 5 copies of the book of the week! FIVE copies! Surely, I would be lucky enough to win just one of them, especially if I'm advertising their site for them! SHEESH!
Anyway...Here's a Few Cookbook Give-Aways I Found! Keep in mind they all have requirements, like registering with them first, a special comment if you like tomatoes and deadlines! Deadlines! They all have deadlines and a few are expiring soon. So, click away and get your name in now!
Joy of Desserts is giving away 5 copies of "The Flavor Bible Cookbook" by Karen Page and Andrew Dornenburg. List price $35.00. The deadline is TOMORROW, September 21st.
Serious Eats is giving away 5 copies of "Olives & Oranges: Recipes and Flavor Secrets from Italy, Spain, Cyprus, and Beyond" by Sara Jenkins & Mindy Fox. List price $35.00. Deadline is Monday, September 22nd.
Serious Eats is also giving away another book. I know! What are they thinking? Two different books in one week? YOWSA! They're giving away 3 copies of "Hungry for Paris: The Ultimate Guide to the City's 102 Best Restaurants" by Alexander Lobrano. List price $16.00. Deadline is Monday, September 22nd.

Good luck, cause you'll be competing against me! (Not really. It's all random, so we all have equal chances. Darn!)
What a great group of killer cookbooks!!
