Make Ahead Bread with a Giveaway!

Make Ahead Bread by Donna Currie

For those who have been following Bite and Booze for awhile, you might remember back to the Emeril's One Pot Blogger Party that I participated in during the Fall of 2011. After that promotion, the group of bloggers teamed up and formed a group called Virtual Potluck. For the last three years we've teamed up on other projects and watched each others' blogs grow and thrive. One of those bloggers, Donna Currie from the blog Cookistry, has recently released her very own book! Donna's book, Make Ahead Bread, is available for sale on Amazon. If you'd like an autographed copy, you can order one from Barbed Wire Books. You can also find Donna on Facebook and Twitter.

I received a copy of the book as well as a few gifts so I could bake some of my own bread. There's really nothing more lovely than the smell of freshly baked bread... okay, maybe freshly cooked bacon, but still, bread is amazing. Make Ahead Bread encourages the reader to make the dough ahead of time that way all the mixing and kneading is done and all you have left to do is bake and enjoy! With so many recipes to choose from, it can be difficult to choose which type of bread to make next.

12 lucky winners are going to receive a gift from Virtual Potluck and all the fine sponsors below. There are over $1800 worth of prizes up for grabs in four different groupings. You can enter right here via Rafflecopter!
