On a side note: YOU GUYS ROCK! I passed a record on my blog yesterday with the most visitors in one day!!! Today will be even better, there is jewelry involved!

Every day this week I will have a giveaway here on my site. Also I will be highlighting a new blogger and she will be hosting a giveaway on her site! So you have the opportunity to enter two giveaways. That is at least two chances to win.

Fine print: Only enter each giveaway once. Giveaways are for everyone unless it says (US and Canada only). You do not need a blog to enter, just a valid email. All winners will be announced here Wednesday, September 10th. You will be able to enter each giveaway until September 9th.

_______________________________________________________

If I asked you the question, who has known me the longest in blog world I bet none of you would get it right. Crystal knew me when…

Crystal and I met on a Crown Financial forum many years ago, we lost touch for a bit and then found each other when we both began blogging. Since then Crystal has started up her own business called Two Belles & a Bead. I can personally vouch for her jewelry; I myself have purchased a necklace and earings. Crystal is an excellent photographer but I have to say the pieces are so beautiful in person. You will not be disappointed. I can not say enough good things about them. Head on over to Song of my Soul to see Crystal’s giveaway.

___________________________________________________________

Ok I know jewelry and cooking don’t really go together, but humor me. You can look good while making some of the yummy recipes in these two book.

I love chicken, and the first cook book gives you tons of ideas of how to cook chicken. The second book “Barbarians at the Plate” is filled with kid friendly recipes (I love the book’s title). Just a side note the “Barbarians at the Plate” cookbook was written by Greta Van Susteren’s (Fox News Channel) sister in law.

To accompany your cook books is a box of Monkey Bread from William’s and Sonoma. If you have never had monkey bread you are missing out on yummy, gooey, goodness.

Open to US and Canada only.

Just so you know those who read me in a feedreader or subscribed for my blog updates via email knew ahead of time what I was giving away. (on the feedreader it is at the very bottom of the post).

Oh the cookbooks are right up my alley. My 10 yr old daughter is learning to cook and she spends literally hours thumbing through them.

I have never had monkey bread, at least I don't think I have. lol

I love cookbooks! Lurv, lurv. lurv them. And I think Crystal's creations are amazing. Like you, I can vouch for her personally as I have purchased several of her beautiful things. Hope I win!

Bonnie

Thank you for doing this. It's fun - not just the possibility of winning something (although that's really nice, too), it's learning about different sites and blogs. I'm excited about Crystal's jewelry. Spent a few minutes browsing before I came back here to enter today. Going to be a regular in her "shop" pretty fast! Thanks again!!

Crystal

Aww, thanks so much for the kind words. :D

I've NEVER had monkey bread. Does that make me the winner automatically? :P I adore cookbooks too. I inherited my mom's addiction to them. I can sit down with a good cookbook and read it cover to cover any day.

Sunny

Love monkey bread! Havent had it in ages, though.

helen

Yum, monkey bread! I did not know that W&S had a box mix!
We make it the slow, cheap way...cans of biscuits, sugar, cinnamon and a ton of REAL butter!!!
Nothin' better (other than chocolate gravy, of course!)

Madeline

This is too funny...this is the first time I visited this website and to see everyone talking about monkey bread brings a smile to my face. I just made it this past Saturday for my boys and their sleep over buddies! I add cut up apples (any kind) and also make it the old fashioned way.

Heather

Oh, I love love love monkey bread!! When I was in high school, my cousin and I would make it for an after school snack all the time. She was way better at it than me so I usually just let her do the making and I did the eating!

Laurel, I have really been enjoying looking up your friends on their blogs! I've skipped & jumped around, reading & looking at videos & photos (maybe the "videos" were actually slide shows - oops!), just having a good time in general. Anyway, thank you for sharing them with us!

Your cookbooks look great - chicken is one of my favorites, and I just love collecting cookbooks and recipes in general (I might need to speak to Beverly about a little downsizing there!)
