It’s here! Hurray! And I’m having a giveaway! I can hardly contain my excitement (enter excited emoji). You know what never mind, enter this:

No wait! This:

Don’t worry, that is not the copy I’m giving away.

You might be thinking “Sadie, you haven’t posted a picture of yourself in almost a year.” (I remember because I posted me in antlers for Noah’s birthday.) “What’s with the onslaught of selfies?”

I can’t answer that… I really don’t know what got into me. Just excited about this new arrival I guess. I’m feelin’ it!

I mean, if I would have thought it out, I would have moved that high chair… or done my makeup.

I would also like to add that at the time of creating this post my babies have had on-going high fevers and I’ve hardly slept in 3 days. It could be clouding my judgment. But really this is about Cooking for Jeffrey, and if you haven’t entered the giveaway yet, click here!

Loving Lately Cookbook Giveaway!

Congratulations Gingy! You won a copy of Cooking For Jeffrey!

Contest is Closed

First, let me start by saying I am overwhelmed with the amount of support I have received from family and friends recently, specifically with my Facebook page. Thank you so much! For those of you new to Sadie’s Nest, every Thursday I share what I am “Loving Lately”. It could be anything; a drink, a restaurant, …a city! Of course, I am outrageously fond of cookbooks (addicted is such a strong word). I don’t know how many I have, and they keep making more! One of my all time favorite cookbook authors is Ina Garten of Barefoot Contessa. She makes everything so approachable, and even more appealing is that the results are always tasty. I read a review on B&N.com that summed it up perfectly, “I have never made a Barefoot Contessa recipe that did not turn out as promised.” And on October 25, 2016 she released a new cookbook! So in honor of my appreciation for my supporters new and old, and my excitement about the new cookbook release: I’m giving away a copy of the hot off the presses, Cooking For Jeffrey, a Barefoot Contessa Cookbook!

Entry rules are easy! Answer this question: How do you prefer to look up recipes? The Internet? Classic print and paper? Do you wing it? Just leave a comment at the end of this post or on the Sadie’s Nest Facebook Page. Only one comment per person please. (Please note I will not be replying… to not mess up the count!)

One lucky winner will be announced on SadiesNest.com on Monday, October 31, 2016!

To participate: You must live in the U.S. or Canada, and must be able to provide a valid mailing address. All eligible entries will be accepted from the time of this post on October 27, 2016 until contest closes at noon (12:00 pm EST) on October 30, 2016. The prize is a copy of “Cooking For Jeffrey, a Barefoot Contessa Cookbook” by Ina Garten. It cannot be exchanged and has no monetary value. Winner must contact Sadie’s Nest within 72 hours to claim their prize or another entry will be drawn. Good Luck!

New Year Cookbook Giveaway

I really can’t think of a better way to start the year than with a giveaway. I get really excited about them. I enter almost every giveaway I come across. I expect Publishers Clearing House to show up at my doorstep with a check any minute. I’ve also expressed my fondness for the cookbook, Return to Sunday Dinner, in the past. It was such a nice surprise when I came across it. I love the sentiment of slowing down and taking the time to enjoy a meal with your family and loved ones. The idea of working hard all week and taking the time to stop and celebrate life on at least a weekly basis is a notion I can appreciate. And then there are the recipes! The author, Russell Cronkhite, worked as the chef to the White House for many years and multiple administrations. His mastery of American cuisine is obvious, but his esteem for the history of the dishes and their diverse multicultural origins was insightful. It’s a winner and I am excited to give one away!

To enter, simply tell me the name of your favorite cookbook in the comment section of this post here or on Facebook (and please note that to not mess up the count, I will not be responding). Only 1 entry per person please. Entries accepted until 11:59 pm EST Monday, January 4, 2016.

Loving Lately ❤ Giveaway!

I have been wanting to do a giveaway for a while. Actually before I ever had a blog I was planning the type of things I’d like to giveaway. Now that I have been doing this for a for a little span, I think its time. I just can’t wait any more!! Thankfully my favorite non-familial home cook has put out a really adorable kitchen ware line! Yay! I think it’s befitting that my first giveaway is a piece from her new line, don’t you? I recently visited my local Walmart to check out the new items and basically wanted to take home one of everything. The practical side of me made, um, me limit myself to a few. I have to say my favorite is this beautiful pitcher!

Loving Lately #1: Pioneer Woman Dishes

Here it is again in case you wanted to see it!

I really thought I was going to the store to pick out some of the those cute Pioneer Woman polk-a-dot glass bowls and cups, and maybe one day I will. But when I saw everything in person, I fell in love with the really sweet floral patterns.

To commemorate my 5 month achievement, thank my loyal followers and celebrate these cute dishes; my first giveaway is The Pioneer Woman Pitcher! I am limiting the giveaway to residents of the U.S. and Canada. (To all of my international friends out there, stay tuned for more giveaway opportunities in the future!)
