Bloggy Giveaways - cookies and a cookbook! CONTEST IS OVER - WINNER WILL BE POSTED

Happy Monday morning everyone! I've decided to jump on board with the Bloggy Giveaway carnival this time around. I love baking and cooking so I'm going to give away to one lucky person a batch of my favorite cookies and Rachael Ray's 30 Minute Get Real Meals cookbook.

The cookbook is full of recipes that are designed towards "eating healthy without going to extremes." You might want to make one of those meals after enjoying a few of my On the Trail Monster Cookies. These cookies are full of goodies - peanuts, m&m's, raisins, oatmeal - and oh-so-delicious! They are monster in size and in taste!

Sorry to my international bloggers -due to shipping costs, this is open to US Residents only. You do not need to have a blog to enter, but make sure you have your email visible or in your post so I can contact you. Only one entry per person please! The giveaway will end April 25th at 10pm EST. A winner will be randomly selected and then posted here on the blog.

Head back over HERE to check out hundreds (and I mean hundreds) of other giveaways! And have a great week!

    Cookies?? Why thank you and may I offer some tea? Please sit down and relax. you have a lovely blog. So how long have you been here? Nice neighbors? yummm, these cookies are good. May I have the recipe? The tea is sweetened with fruit preserves. I find it is better then sugar and is one more way to add a fruit to my diet. Must be going. so many more blogs to visit. Nice to met you.

    Later.

    I must confess that Rachel Ray's shows drive me nuts. Since I first saw her on $40 A Day I've tried to avoid her. I don't know if it's her loud spunkiness, or her made-up words, or what. But a friend finally convinced me to check out a RR cookbook, and guess what...I was impressed with the recipes. So I'd love to win your giveaway, but I'm still not going to watch her show. beccachristensen at hotmail dot com
