Another Milestone Reached!

My blog has reached over 10,000 views so far, and it's not even a year old yet! 


Some of you have helped and encouraged me to keep on going with it and posting my recipes, whether they inspired by my Mum, or my never-ending collection of books!


I promised, once I reached my own personal target, that I would have a give-away, and here it comes! 
I have 3 books on offer this time, and all you have to do to be in with a chance of getting your hands on one of them, is this:-


Leave a comment and tell me which of my recipes posted so far, has appealed to you the most, or if you have tried any, what you thought of it. That's it, that's all you have to do!  No jumping through hoops!


I really enjoy making my creations, writing up my recipes, and taking the photographs, It's a great hobby to have.  I have met the most most amazing food producers, recipe bloggers, and twitter-pals with similar interests (other than cakes) through what I do, it is has just been a blast for me.


Here's what's on offer this time:- 
A step-by-step, easy to follow, complete guide to preparing a dinner party (Starters, mains, and desserts) for friends and family.
Title stays it all!  One basic recipe, for 50 different cookies
Last, but not least, a lovely little book of Pies!
I would really like to hear what you have to say, and our Babs will draw a winner on the 4th of April 2012.  So, you have until then to pop by and enter.  


Prizes will be allocated in the order listed above. Entry is open to all, wherever you live. 


There is just one "little" rule.  Don't leave a comment if you either don't follow my blog, or don't follow me on Twitter, as you won't be included.  No prize-hunters allowed here! So, go ahead and leave a comment. Looking forward to hearing from you :)


Thank you all for reading, and good luck!

    The recipe I want to try but am afraid for my waistline is the Baked Chocolate & Ginger Cheesecake. It looks seriously good. Congrats.

    Ooh, congrats! I love the look of your Gingerbread recipe, I'm looking forward to using it! And your Blondie's post inspired me to FINALLY trying out the Rachel Allen recipe I had been staring at for years!

    The "Half and Half" Spelt Bread Rolls appealed to me the most. Have them somewhere on my list of recipes to try.

    Congrats on getting over 10,000 views! :)

    Well done Colette on reaching a very big milestone! You must be very proud of your blog! There are so many of your recipes that appealed to me, but I loved your chocolate and orange macarons the most, you even inspired me to make some (with a little help from the book I won in your last competition!) :)
