$50 Gift Card Giveaway
[This contest is closed; congrats to Andrea!]
You know what I hardly ever do on my blog? (Write a sentence without a dash, semicolon, ellipses or all three. . . (I also do not under-use parentheses)). Do giveaways.
Obviously, that lead-in lets you know that THIS will be giveaway post (the title might have been a bit of a hint too, I’m guessing).
Along with an enormous box of flatbreads (which are pretty much my new favorite thing as I’ve given up cooking dinner for Lent because of our new baby, preferring to spend all my cooking energy making as many cookies, scones, and other carbs as I possibly can), Flatout gave me a $50 gift card to Walmart to giveaway.
I dislike hoops for giveaways and I REALLY dislike when giveaways force you to be a follower on Twitter/Pinterest/Google Friend Connect/Facebook/Name Your Social Media Tool of Choice, so just leave a comment about any old thing you want (if you need an idea, why don’t you tell me what recipes for carby-carby goodness you recommend), and a winner will be selected at random.
Also, if you happen to actually be making dinner instead of cookies, here are some pizza recipes I’d highly recommend:
- Zucchini
- Pesto and Goat Cheese
- Greens and Cheese Flatbread Wraps
- Crispy Bacon and Tomato
- Grilled Peach and Prosciutto
Giveaway Rules: Must be 18 years of age and live in the U.S. Ends 12/31/2012 at midnight CST.

Congrats on your cute babies. I love your blog and Ian glad your giveaway is so sime
Lately my carb overload choice is potato salad.
Yay! Love giveaways with no crazy hoops to jump though! Happy holidays to you and your adorable family.
That flatbread did look yummy!
I made pretzel rolls on Sunday. And then I made them again on Wednesday. I would make them again, but the element in my oven burnt out last night. I'm supposedly cooking a turkey on Monday, we'll see what happens…
By the way-I don't believe I've ever commented before, but I love your blog. I really appreciate all the book recommendations–and I appreciate our library's digital downloading of audiobooks.
Pizza is my husband's very favorite food in the world, so I've loved your pizza posts.
My current carb overload of choice is bagels. I eat one every morning. However, I have never made them myself!
I love making these cheese breads

Here is what I am making for Christmas breakfast: http://allrecipes.com/recipe/grandmas-peach-french-toast/
I added a container of low-fat ricotta to the recipe which makes it slightly less sweet and it tastes like blitzes. Wishing all of you a very Merry Christmas!
I made 2 kinds of fudge, carmelized sesame chickpeas and gingery cheesecake pops to take to my kids school. Today I am making more of the same for family, along with french style apple butter. Food gifts rule!
My carb choice right now is orange rolls, I can't seem to get enough!
I had creme brûlée French toast for the first time on Monday and seriously considered making that every day for the rest of my life. Then I got real and understood that if I could barely finish one slice of it, it wasn't meant to be eaten all the time. I am planning on making it for Christmas, though. It is an overnighter/sleeps in the fridge recipe that has a million versions via google.
Thanks for the giveaway!!!
I had a green chile mac and cheese when I was in New Mexico over Christmas and it changed my life. Merry Christmas to you guys!
