Congratulations, Danielle! Be sure to reply to the email you’ve been sent, and I’ll get your cookbooks shipped out to you!

As a result, I have more than 130 cookbooks lining my shelves. Each has a special place there, but some (both old and new) are hands-down favorites. It was an excruciating task, but I narrowed down my collection to 10 of my most favorite cookbooks, and am giving away copies of all 10 to one lucky reader! Continue reading below for details on how to enter!

    My favorite cookbook of 2012 is: Regali golosi by Sigrid Verbert! It has been translated in French and Polish. It’s amazing the good gifts ideas it contains. There are also tips on how to package cookies and jars in an original way!
    And the recipes I’ve tried are delicious, the procedure is super simple!
