I am a retired teacher with time on my hands. I love to cook and bake. For the past eight years my hobby has been entering recipe contests. I have done very well and have been to several cook/bake offs although I have never won a grand prize. The ititials of my blog CCC are the same as the site where I get contest information, Cooking Contest Central (CCC). While there are 1000's of food blogs that post recipes this blog will review other cooking blogs.

Nutmegnotebook http://nutmegnotebook.com/ is hosted by Tami who was the winner of my most recent giveaway.

CHICKEN SOUVIAKI WITH TZATZIKI SAUCE


AND THE WINNER IS............

There were 99 comments left for Camilla's book, Piece of Cake. However 4 comments were bad -- one poster deleted his/her post, 2 comments were duplicates (I ignored the second post of each poster) and one person posted a bad email. I deleted the post with the bad email address and accepted the good email address. So, actually, there were 95 valid comments.

I used random.org to pick the winner. The winner is #41 which belongs to Tami. I have sent Tami an email telling her that she has won. The book is packed and as soon as she sends me her address I will send the book.

Thanks for playing and watch for my next giveaway.
