Give Away Time!

 

book

I wanted to kick off the holiday season with a new give away. Instead of a food product I thought it would be fun to give away a new cookbook! I picked up The Kind Diet by Alicia Silverstone. In the beginning of the book she gives reasons as to why she's vegan and some easy steps for incorporating more vegan meals into your diet. In the second half of the book there are a bunch of yummy looking recipes.

Some of the recipes include, Black Soybean and Kabocha Squash Stew, Eggplant Chana Masala, Artichoke, Mushroom and Leek Crostini with Pesto, Maple Roasted Lotus Root, Sunchoke and Leeks plus much more! Overall she has some interesting recipes and its worth checkin out.

Wanna win it?! Yesss! Ok heres the deal:

1) Let me know your favorite movie!

2) Become a follower of my blog

3) Link this contest on your site and let me know that you did so

4) Add me to your blog roll

I will be picking the winner next Saturday, December 5th, at noon! Good luck!

    Favorite movie...Oh that's a toughy. Adam Sandler is my all around favorite actor. Billy Madison might take it. It was just the best to me at that time and I still laugh if I see it now. Then there are about 20 other close seconds.

    Favorite movie is Imitation of Life (from 1959). A moving classic.

    I have different favorite movies for different moods - Cinema Paradiso may be one of my all-time favorites, maybe Life is Beautiful. I've probably seen Grease the most of any movie. Can't wait to read the rest of your site!

    Just choose one favorite movie? That is a toughy but I would have to go with Dirty Dancing, for my favorite. I could watch it every day.
