The Cook’s Illustrated Cookbook (autographed copy) Giveaway

Over the summer, I found out that America’s Test Kitchen is located right down the road from where I live. It’s literally less than a 10 minute walk from my house. I had no idea. But since then, I’ve been building a relationship with the folks down there and I’ve even got a good friend (Megan) who works there!

A few weeks before the holiday season hit, ATK hosted a private reception at the Test Kitchen to celebrate the launch of The Cook’s Illustrated Cookbook. I had a great time at the reception. You can check out the photos from the reception on the ATK Facebook page. As part of the goodie bag at the end of the night, we all got to bring home a copy of The Cook’s Illustrated Cookbook which had been autographed by none other than Christopher Kimball himself!

Because my cookbook collection is out.of.control on top of the fact that I have about five other Cook’s Illustrated cookbooks, I’ve decided to pass this copy along to one of you!

Giveaway rules (CLOSED):
– Winner will be chosen using Random.org
– US shipping addresses only
– Giveaway is open until 11:59 PM EST on Wednesday, January 4th (that’s today!)
– Mandatory first entry: answer the following question: What’s your favorite cookbook in your collection?
– For an additional (optional) entry, Tweet the following “I want to win an autographed copy of The Cook’s Illustrated Cookbook from @beantownbaker www.beantownbaker.com” (leave a separate comment saying you Tweeted about the giveaway)

Note: America’s Test Kitchen has no idea I’m doing this giveaway. I enjoy their cookbooks and wanted to share one of them with you!

    You know, I finally saw the cookie episode you keep mentioning last night. I caught it on right before bed! 🙂 It made me think of you.

    Congratulations to Rachel!! And I would be sad that I didn’t win, but the day after I read your post I found the book at Costco and bought it! Couldn’t help myself. I had even told my husband about it knowing he would get it for Christmas or my birthday…but couldn’t wait.

    And it is even more wonderful than I thought it would be! Thank you for the heads up. I don’t know what rock I had been living under, but I hadn’t even HEARD about this book until you posted about it!

    And I am already anticipating volume two and three!

    hehe – I just sent you an email! So excited to win something!!!
    And yes Julie – I taped the cookie episode yesterday too. I always use the “Mrs. Fields/ Nieman Marcus $250 cookie recipe” but I will have to try Alton’s now that I have his book. =)

    Thank you!!!!!!!

    Yes, My DVR caught the chocolate chip cookie episode too. I can’t wait to watch it again.

    I’m planning on reading this cookbook like a novel, front to back. There’s so much good info in it.
