the pioneer woman {and a giveaway!}

Last night Jill, Jessica and I drove an hour up to Bartlesville to meet The Pioneer Woman...



We sampled some of her recipes she brought (yum!), snagged a pic of Marlboro Man, went to eat at Chili's while we were waiting for our turn, came back and still sat and talked and laughed for hours (we can get pretty silly!) while waiting our turn and were the very last ones in line to meet her... then we got pulled over by a police man on the way home- what an adventure!

Her cookbook is AMAZING and she is a DELIGHT!

I bought an EXTRA cookbook and asked her to sign it and we are giving it away, along with a sweet "kiss the cook" necklace to match!





How cute is that little fork and spoon?

To enter to win BOTH the book and the necklace just leave us a comment!

happy wednesday :)

loriallen said...

I have to admit, I do get kissed (and hugged:) a lot for cooking for my 6 kids and hubby. I made cinnamon rolls and hot cocoa last night and I felt like a million bucks! They couldn't have given me anything else that would have made me feel better than their compliments...and hugs and kisses (of course)!

Gemma said...

I'm elated to hear that you are familiar with the pioneer woman! My mommy has been wanting that cookbook for a very long time. I can see her now on Thanksgiving day, tired, sweaty, and trying to remove the plastic stuff from -both- ends of the turkey after it has cooked for an hour. But none of that would matter, because she would be wearing the most adorable little cooking necklace in the world.

Cheryl said...

Awesome! This giveaway totally rocks. How cute is that necklace too. I would give my left pinky toe to win this giveaway. Thanks for the chance.

Kim @ Home Is Where The Heart Is said...

What a darling necklace! Will you be offering it for sale on your website, too?

What an amazing combination!!! Love it ;-) Thanks for the chance to win!!

Michelle said...

I am on maternity leave right now and I am enjoying the time home cooking delicious meals for my kids. I would love to win; I love her and the bonus necklace...what can I say....it is soooooooo cute! Pick me!

Nancy said...

Love the necklace and always love a good cookbook! I've been working with a group of AMAZING women in the past 20 months to publish, promote and sell the newest Junior League cookbook for our community, all proceeds if which go back to our Junior League for projects that impact families and children in our area. Not only has my passion for cooking been re-ignited, but I've gotten the selfish pleasure of giving back to a community that offers so much to its people! While there are days that my 16 month old thinks her Nana is her mama (thanks mom), it has all been worth it! (And my husband didn't hate the 12 months of kitchen testing either). Would love to Kiss the Cook!

Everyday Moments said...

I love that necklace. Ree needs one!

Spencer and Chelsea Coon said...

I just discovered your site via the Pioneer Woman's. I just fell upon hers this week and just about killed myself to cook about 5 of her recipes downloaded from her site this week. I'm cooking the brisket tomorrow morning, so far I'm 5 for 5 with winners!! I'm dying to get the cookbook and now want some of your jewelry. I also have 2 girls, 2 boys, 10 and under, am a stay at home mommy, so have a special kinship to you and PW. Love your sites and will now be a faithful follower. Great to know I'm not the only crazy person out there!! Can't wait to order a piece for my beautiful 10 year old daughter for Christmas.
