book giveaway + cookies

Nicola giveaway

Would you like to win a shiny new copy of my book?

I've arranged another giveaway- this time over at my friend Nicola's beautiful blog, Homegrown Kitchen. Nicola is a food writer and we've known each other for quite a few years now- you might remember we held an event together in Nelson last year. 

Nicola's taking her popular cooking workshops around NZ this year, including Wellington in September, local friends, so I will write more about that soon.

Every post over at Homegrown Kitchen includes a gorgeous, healthy recipe and this time she's written one for chocolate-chip chickpea cookies, which I believe would make a lovely crafting accompaniment, and be a fab addition to the kids' lunchboxes too. 

To enter the giveaway, just go to this post and follow the directions. Entries are open to NZ residents only.

    Was just about to hop over and join in when I saw it was for NZ only. Never mind will have a look anyway. I haven’t had chickpeas in cookies but I have had butter beans with chocolate chips and yes they were really good. Your photos always look lovely by the way, very natural and pretty. I have a little shop and due to less than great surroundings (very unprepossessing, am not fibbing – that’s why I make the pretty things!) I have always whited out the background. Of course that tends to be the advice but really, it’s a bit bland isn’t it? Maybe I’ll have to borrow someone else’s house and have a rethink and try and reflect my personality better.

    What a treasure trove of recipes. I’ve already printed a couple to try this week and add to my readers list. Thanks for the introduction!

    hi sara, thank you for your message! im not sure whats best re photo backgrounds for selling handmade items. i do think a whited-out background can look more professional- but maybe have a play around with other ideas and see what works for you. i have to remind myself to shake things up a bit now and then!
