One Year Blogiversary & Giveaway

It has been one year and almost 170 posts after I quietly began my blog. I cannot believe I have been doing this for 365 days. I initially started the blog as my own personal inventory of recipes I enjoyed and to have a place to record my evolution into (hopefully) someone that could cook. I never imagined it would become such a source of enjoyment for me, or that anyone would ever look at it!
I am so lucky to have progressed this much in one year’s time, and I want to thank all of you who check in on my blog from time to time. What better way to thank you than with a giveaway? As you’ve probably noticed, Cooking Light has been a huge part of my culinary development. I have them to thank for helping me realize that I could indeed learn how to cook. The magazine makes it easy to whip up a delicious and healthy meal while staying within a budget. Each month contains so many recipes that can be made in 40 minutes or less, (perfect for week nights) and because the magazine comes out monthly, it’s easy to take advantage of seasonal produce in your cooking.

So I am giving away not one, but two one-year subscriptions to Cooking Light, so that you can get as much joy out of the magazine as I have!

The first name picked gets a little giveaway bonus: a cookbook! You will be able to choose from either Cooking Light Fresh Food Fast: Weeknight Meals or Cooking Light Cooking Through Seasons.

Note: This contest is now closed. Congratulations to Julie from Sugarfoot Eats who won both a subscription to Cooking Light AND the Weeknight Meals cookbook! Congratulations also go to Claire from The Realistic Nutritionist who also won a subscription to Cooking Light! I hope you two enjoy it as much as I have!!

How to enter:
  • Write a comment below letting me know which cookbook you’d like if you win the first subscription.
To receive additional entries, you can also:
  • Like my facebook page and leave comment below telling me you did so
  • Like Cooking Light’s facebook page and leave comment below telling me you did so
  • Follow me on twitter and leave a comment below telling me you did so
  • Tweet about this giveaway: “Enter to win @icancookthat’s Cooking Light Magazine subscription giveaway! https://tinyurl.com/7uud8ua #giveaway” and leave a comment below saying you did so.
Rules: This is open to U.S. residents only (sorry). Please be sure to include your e-mail address so that I can contact you if you win. The giveaway will run until Thanksgiving, Thursday, November 24 at 11:59pm ET. Two winners will be chosen at random using Random.org from all eligible entries. Each reader has up to five chances to win (be sure to leave a separate comment for each entry). The winners will be notified through e-mail on Friday, November 25.

Note: If you already have a subscription to Cooking Light but would like to be entered to win just one of the cookbooks, please just let me know that in your first comment.
Good luck!

    That is a tough one…both look very useful and interesting. I think I would go for the Cooking through the Seasonings. I am trying to cook more and more with ingredients that are naturally suppose to be eaten during that season. Great giveaway.

    Hi,I think your site might be having browser compatibility issues. When I look at your website in Safari, it looks fine but when opening in Internet Explorer, it has some overlapping. I just wanted to give you a quick heads up! Other than that, fantastic blog!

    People often add too much salt in their recipes without realizing it until it’s too late, but do not worry. There is a way to fix this! Add two peeled and chopped raw potatoes to the dish, and then allow it to simmer for around 15 minutes. The potatoes help absorb the extra salt. For a dish that is tomato-based, just put a few more tomatoes in and let them cook until they’re tender. These will dilute the extra salt.’^
