Halloween and the election are over…whew! And now, we’re at the cusp of the sweetest season of the year, that series of two months where we eat copious amounts of delicious pumpkin pie and christmas cookies. That’s right–November is the point of do not pass go, do not diet until New Year’s.
And in celebration, we’re offering a seasonal sweets poll! It’s a bounty of five sweet prizes–for five separate winners! The following prizes are being offered:
- One lucky winner will receive a cupcake tote bag from Penguinbot! Love is in the details with this sturdy, durable vinyl tote–it’s delicately reverse-appliquéd with an adorable cupcake, with the an inner lining of bright, contrasting pattered fabric. It’s an extremely well-made bag which would usually retail for $50 (and would be worth every penny). Even if you don’t win, you should probably buy one (you know, to help the economy); you can get one here.
- Two lucky winners will receive Elisa Strauss’ new book, Confetti Cakes for Kids. Even without kids, these recipes are super fun and the pictures are amazing to look at!
- Two winners will receive a pack of Cakespy Holiday notecards! Each pack includes an assortment of cards which are guaranteed to make this the sweetest holiday season ever!
What do you have to do to enter? Don’t worry, it’s easy. All you have to do is answer the following two questions at CakeSpy!
1. What is your favorite Thanksgiving dessert?
2. What is your favorite Christmas cookie?
But wait, there’s more! If you copy and paste (or include a link to) a recipe for either of your responses, you’ll be entered into the drawing twice! That’s right…double your chances of winning!
Winners are chosen at random. Responses maybe posted in the comments section or emailed to jessieoleson@gmail.com. Same rules as usual. This poll will close at 12 Noon PST on Friday, November 14!
