My Sweet Vegan giveaway results!
Please head over to my new blog at TheUrbanHousewife.com, where you'll find this post & more!
Phew, what a crazy week of comments it has been! With over 100 entries, I'm glad I decided to let random.org choose the winner for the My Sweet Vegan giveaway, rather than deciding myself.
While many of you chose common combinations like peanut butter & chocolate or fruit & chocolate, others came through with unique flavor combinations such as banana & curry, chili & pickle juice, pineapple & turmeric, & multiple people even mentioned peanut butter & pickles! I'm finding myself inspired by the suggestions & may have to use some of them in future kitchen concoctions! I was a bit alarmed to see mentions of items like bacon & cheese on a vegan blog, but that's a story for another time!
So, without further ado, the winner of a copy of My Sweet Vegan by Hannah Kaminsky is..
#30- Bianca! "you can really do no wrong with chocolate but a sourdough acme baguette sliced up and covered in chocolate is totally magical." Here's a screenshot of the random.org selection.
Congratulations Bianca; I'll definitely be trying your flavor combination! Lucky me, I live in the city of Acme Bread & it is a favorite of mine. In fact, I used their Sour Batard tonight to make the "Sweet & Simple French Toast" from My Sweet Vegan & it was delicious! How is that for irony?!
Thank you to everyone for joining in the fun & I hope those of you who weren't selected will buy a copy of My Sweet Vegan today! It's a fun & fabulous book for any dessert lover!

I will definitely be getting it.!! I just looked up Acme Bread and it looks great! Do you get Dave's Killer Bread in SF?
Aw, man! I am jealous. But congratulations, Bianca! I can't believe how many entries there were! We must all have crazy sweet tooths (teeth?).
I totally don't "need" anymore cookbooks, but I don't think I'll be able to resist getting this one. It's on my Amazon wish list, and I drool over it just about everyday... What to do.
Mentioning a French Toast recipe might have just tempted me over the edge, though... Jeez!
Thanks again for generously giving away a copy of the book, Melisser, and congratulations to Bianca! I hope you enjoy the recipes!
what a great giveaway you had- the person who won is lucky, it's a really fun book!
I am really enjoying My Sweet Vegan, it's so cool of you to spread the love!
YAY!!!
Thanks, Melisser, this rules! And thank you too Hannah--I am so looking forward to cooking up some good sweets!
yr pretty awesome!
Congratulations to Bianca!
Congrats and how lucky is she!
Aww, I didn't win! Kind of destined to be I guess because I just ordered My Sweet Vegan off of amazon.com this passed sunday having forgot I entered your competition!
Hooray for chili & pickle juice and cograts Bianca!
I think I'll have to buy that cookbook now :)
my interest in this book is peeked. i'm excited to buy it this weekend (i finally have a weekend off!)
and thank you for your nice comments about my wedding (: it's been about two months and we're in that awe-dorable phase, haha.
Congrats to the lucky winner, and it's so wonderful of you to have had this contest! I was going to post but I couldn't think of anytthing wacky enough in time... But then this morning I remembered that for a week or so around Christmas I was totally into hummus + homemade granola, as in, you mix the two together and eat them. I was so into it that I finally got kinda sick on it one day, so I've moved on, but that was one of my weirder recent flavor combos... And wow, I hadn't even noticed that French Toast recipe, but I've got to get on that soon!
congratulations, Bianca!! Hannah's cookbook is AMAZING!! :0)
What a great contest--sorry I missed it! Then again, I already have a copy of Hannah's amazing cookbook, so I really shouldn't have played, anyway ;)
I can't resist telling you about my former room-mate's combo (well, maybe it's not so weird after all): pizza and peanut butter. As in, "spread peanut butter on your pizza where the tomato sauce usually goes." Apparently, pretty tasty!
Thanks for your comment on my blog, melliser--it is much appreciated! I've bookmarked your site and will definitely be visiting regularly.
Wow! Bianca must be really happy! I'd better go and get a copy myself!
By the way, I've tagged you. Check out the rules here: http://buttnakedbaby.blogspot.com/2008/02/ive-been-tagged.html
