#Giveaway Monday

Good morning, and happy Giveaway Monday. Here is a free cookbook with simple recipes:

The 2014 Quick & Easy Holiday Garden Gourmet

NOTE: I just found out that the above link, which is

http://www.wildrosepublishing.com/maincatalog_v151/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=180&products_id=5988

is not working from mobile devices. I’ve contacted the publisher about this technical glitch, and I’ve asked for permission to email a PDF. If you are interested in getting that PDF sent to you by email so you can download it on your mobile device, please leave a comment below. I will email you the book.

If you click the link from a non-mobile device (a computer), it will work.

Okay, back to the cookbook. Itis not all holiday recipes, mostly not, actually. Here’s what’s in this book:

• Crockpot Recipes
• No Bake Recipes
• One Pot Recipes
• 5 or Less Ingredient Recipes
• 30 Minute or Less Recipes

I just downloaded it. This book was put together by authors at The Wild Rose Press. Writers are always looking for shortcuts to cooking so we can spend more time writing, hence they are the perfect go-to folks for easy recipes. Here are the ones I’m going to try: Crock Pot Macaroni and Cheese, Emily Darling’s Lentil Soup, Linguine with Garlic and Prosciutto, and Stracciatella Soup.

There are also book covers from the authors, so you can get a sampling of good books to read too.

On Saturday I went to the library for a meet up. I was fascinated by these shadows, so I took a shot with my phone and fiddled with it a bit using Snapseed (a free download for your Android or iPhone).
