Do you remember, by any chance, when I posted HERE about the Quilter's Kitchen by Jennifer Chiaverini? I had just made this really yummy pork dish--
I've since made the dish a couple more times, and it's always excellent! Well when I was at the thrift store the other day, I came across another copy of the book, so I quickly snapped it up. It's filled with recipes that are strung together by the story of one of the newest members of the Elm Creek Quilters, a woman who was brought on to cook for the staff and retreat-goers.
Would you like to win it? If you like the Elm Creek/Chiaverini books, like to cook, and don't already have a copy, please leave me a comment, and I'll put you in the drawing. I'll pick a winner on Saturday night. Good luck!

Love to cook, love to read anything about quilts so I qualify. Thank you for sharing your find with us, the pork dish looks wonderful.
I haven't read her books (in the conventional way) but I've listened to a few on audio CDs. I could use a hard copy and the cookbook sounds fun!

I have only rad one of her books and when I get to the bottom of the books I have here at home I need to check this one out, I'm like some of the other people who have commented in that I get in a rut with my cooking. It seems like I cook the same things day in and day out.

I just went to the library today looking for more Elm Creek books.....alas the only one they had I have already read. I would really treasure this book if you picked me,...please.... :0)
Double the fun. Not only do I love cookbooks but I absolutely love all the Jennifer Chiavirini books. Nothing could be better than a story about quilters. I only wish I had an old manor house to create my own retreat.
Count me in! Anything food or quilting!
Hi,
I would love a chance to win the book.
Pick me! Pick me! I love food! (Obviously, or I wouldn't be so fat!)
Thanks, Chris in Sac
How fun. I would love to have some new recipies.
I luv all of those things--and I would luv to have some new recipes that we would all enjoy! Great combination--story, recipes and quilting! Count me in!
That picture of the pork recipe makes me want to win the cookbook. I'm always looking for new recipes & to be quilted related would be divine!
I love the series but don't have the cookbook. Count me in!
you DO find lots of good stuff at the thrift store! i've read the first 6 books in the Elm Creek series - they came as samplers, three books published in one volume (times two) ... i love a good read.
I would LOVE the cookbook ... your pork dish looks so YUMMY!
You just never know what you will find at the thrift store. I had to get the book out from the library, where it also needed to be returned!
I'll hope to be picked!
Just wanted to comment on the Back home quilt. I am making mine on my own...no class. I have stopped where I am because I havent made some decisions. I am changing it too. I have all the stuff and am finding it a bit busy for my taste. I am thinking that it mightnot be as big as it was meant to be, but if you have taught me anything, it really is okay to make changes and make a quilt really yours.
