CSN Giveaway Winner!
Thanks to everyone who entered in my CSN Giveaway. I loved hearing about how close or far off people were from finishing their holiday shopping. In the past week, I’ve been able to finish the rest of mine (all online of course), except Hubby, my mom, and a few people who are getting homemade gifts.
As always, I used Random.org to choose a random number between 1 and 156 for me.
It chose #17, who is Amanda from Manda Lee Gifts. Amanda said she got some of her shopping done before Thanksgiving and even more on Black Friday. I hope this $55 gift certificate helps you finish up!
Amanda, shoot me an email and I’ll send your prize code right over.
Be sure to check back next week because I’ve got two great giveaways coming up!







I am Jen the Beantown Baker. Engineer by day and baking maven by night. Hubby serves as my #1 fan and official taste tester. We got hitched back in 2006. Barefoot. In the sand. With the waves crashing behind us. It was one of the best decisions we’ve ever made. 






I love Alton Brown’s Good Eats series…I have all three’
Food Networks “How to Boil Water.” It’s idiot/Anne proof.
Tyler Florence’s Ultimate cookbook is my wow the family staple. For simple dinner with my husband I like Rachel Ray or Giada.
I use my Slow Cooker Revolution book all the time!
Honestly, my favorite cook book is the one I am creating. It has my grandmothers, my mothers, my friends, and my teachers best recipes! Its filled with the best works of so many people!
