My Name is Kimberly, and I'm a cookbook-aholic....

I love cookbooks. I have many of them and am always looking for new good ones. I have some that are purely for looking at and reading through, because the recipes are far too extravagant to be practical for my life. I have some that are reference guides, full of basic information like how to make chicken stock and how long to bake a potato. Then there are those that I cook from each and every week. They are dog-eared, marked-up and worn. I love those cookbooks and feel like I have made a new friend when I find another to add to the collection. That is how I feel about the cookbook that I am giving away this week. I have blogged about it before, and am so excited to introduce someone else to this terrific book. I have only had the book a short time but have already made no less than 10 recipes from it and ALL of them have been good. Most of them have been outstanding.

The book is Don't Panic, Dinner's in the Freezer and it is not only full of good recipes, it teaches you how to make the most of your time, cooking in multiples and freezing for later. It has an exhaustive guide, explaining how best to freeze things to maximize your freezer space and their life in the freezer. It has been such a relief to have a small stockpile on hand for those days when the kids have driven me to exhaustion or I was longer at Target than I had planned and need to make dinner in a hurry. Even better, I was recently able to bless a woman at church who just had a baby by bringing her a meal of homemade soup and bread, but I didn't actually have to make any of it....it was already done and in my freezer! I don't know about you, but it's a lot easier to volunteer for things like meals on wheels when you don't have to figure out how on earth you're going to find the time to do it!

So here's the deal....
