a little giveaway action.

Did I ever tell you about my genius not so genius idea to start a 
"Baked Good of the Month Club"?

Well....it all started at Christmas.  Craig doesn't like Christmas.  He thinks it's commercialism at its worst and detests the idea of buying presents on certain days just because you're "supposed to".  BUT...I convinced him to let me make all of our gifts...this still required some money, but it was a little less expensive, and less commercial.  SO... when it came time to do something from Craig's dad and I was stumped.  Guys are so hard to buy for!  Anyway, the only thing I know he really loves is sweets and baked goods, so I decided to start up a "Baked Good of the Month Club" as a gift for him and for my dad as well.  This all sounded good on paper.  But, I'm such a procrastinator!  Today is the 30th and I have yet to make the baked good for this month:  Brownies.  

I've promised myself I'm going to do it today...and I definitely probably will.  I think I'd be a little bit more motivated to bake if I had today's giveaway prize all for my own.  I can enter my own giveaway, right?

Here are the little beauties up for grabs.....  
Wouldn't my brownies look great in these?

{Le Creuset 9" and 5" baking dishes}

This  giveaway is being kindly sponsored by CSN stores who have a variety of online stores where you can find the most lovely things.  They have everything from kids bedding to fondue pots to the perfect mid-century modern chair. I actually quite love that chair, but that's another story.

So...on with the details.....

To enter:

You must be a U.S. 
or Canadian resident.
Sorry international friends.
I'm guessing these things are heavy.

Leave a comment telling me what you would bake in these lovely baking dishes...and leave me a link to a recipe is one exists...I'm always up for new ideas!

You can receive additional entries for the following (one comment for each):

2.  Be a follower of this here blog.

3.  Post this on Facebook or Twitter and leave a link to your post.

4.  Blog about this giveaway and leave me the link in your comment. 
Good luck!
I'll be announcing a winner 
next Monday (April 5th). 
OH!  And check back tomorrow for the first guest blogger in my "how to...." series.  It's gonna be good!
xo

  3. aaaa le creuset has such gorgeous kitchen stuff! I'd use the little one for baked oatmeal [http://iowagirleats.com/2009/10/26/experiments-in-baked-oatmeal/] and the big one for apple crisp!

    ReplyDelete

  4. also, of course I'm a follower. your blog is adorable :)

    ReplyDelete

  5. Aww what a wonderful idea for a gift. I love that!! The dishes are so pretty. I am one of those ambitious cooks/bakers with little experience. Having these pretty pans would inspire me to bake more. I probably would do a cake or brownies. (and yes, I'm a follower!)

    ReplyDelete

  6. Oh my gosh! This is a great giveaway and those are gorgeous baking pans. SERIOUSLY!
    I would make my lasagna because it's been a long time since I have and Jus would like me to, heck, I would probably try to bake everything in them. But here's the link to the recipe http://adventuresinloveandhappiness.blogspot.com/2009/10/layers-of-goodness.html

    ReplyDelete

  10. ahh we bought those for my boyfriend's brother for xmas! i love them! i would probably make blonde brownies in the smaller one and some sort of delicious casserole in the larger one (for recipes i'd probably hit up taste spotting.com or my iphone epicurious app!)

    love!

    ReplyDelete

    ReplyDelete

  12. Oh --- I can't even begin to list all the things I would bake in these. My sister is going vegan so we have a LOAD of vegan baking recipes to try and almost all of them would bake up so nicely in these dishes. Plus they are my favorite color: )

    Fingers crossed.:)

    ReplyDelete

  61. Hi!!! this IS Katie Forrester...just married :)
    I should win these for various reasons!!

    1. i want to be a godly wife and bake amazing vegetarian casseroles in these for my husband.

    2. i registered for these and didn't get them!

    3. you are cute and so is your blog.

    4. oh, and I'm a newly wed.

    I dont know if this puts me in the qualification, but I really want to win!!!

    ReplyDelete

  62. Wow, these would change my life! I would actually start making my stuffed chicken breasts with zucchini and mozarella and apple crisp for dessert. I'd have to type the recipes up and I'm too lazy so if it sounds good I can e-mail you the recipe!
    I love the color too, gorgeous!

    ReplyDelete

  64. So pretty! I would make kale gratin. That's the only way I know how to make kale taste good. It's actually a really healthy, delicious dish - one of Josh's favorites! My recipe is from a cookbook called Pure Flavor, but I found one online that's similar at http://www.alive.com/6432a7a2.php?subject_bread_cramb=952

    ReplyDelete

  65. Ohmygoodness...these are AMAZING - I've heard rave reviews about them (not to mention they'd match a lot of stuff on our registry!)

    I would try out a new recipe that I just found this weekend (but can't find online) called peanut butter bars. Basically a homemade version of Reese's peanut butter cups (one of Chris' favorites!). I'd also test them out with a few fun casserole recipes - I'm planning on becoming and expert cook by October :)

Mmm. yum.

  88. Of course I'm already a follower! If I won, I'd make super each peach cobbler in them. I make it anytime we have to take food to church.

    1 cup self-rising flour
    3/4 cup sugar
    3/4 - 1 cup of milk
    1/3 cup melted butter or margarine
    fruit of your choice

    Melt butter and pour in the bottom of the dish, then add your diced fruit. Mix milk, sugar and flour, then pour that on top. Bake at 350 for about 30 minutes. Easy and delicious!

    I'll be back with my extra entries!

    ReplyDelete

  91. Wow you're getting a ridiculous amount of comments! I would make some type of crisp because that sounds good right now! My Cooking Light mag had a good looking one!

    Hope you're having a good day friend and that Saturday still works out!

    ReplyDelete

  93. i love love love those! since i'm not much of a baker, i would probably make some lasagnas in them more often! the color is perfect for our kitchen, so i would be able to get rid of my plain white dishes : ) i'm definitely going to check out CSN!

    ReplyDelete

  94. Oh man...I think these are adorable! I would make my famous peanut butter brownies in the small one. It's just brownies( a mix or from scratch) then put globs creamy jiff all over the top, then swirl it with a knife til it looks all pretty then bake! So good warm! In the big one I would make these ginger chocolate chip bars from Real Simple. http://www.realsimple.com/food-recipes/browse-all-recipes/ginger-chocolate-chip-bars-00000000006843/index.html

  99. Okay, I'm trying again (this time following directions). I would LOVE to bake some delicious fattening comfort food in those baking dishes... something like turkey noodle casserole or zitibake. If I absolutely had to, I'd also maybe make some brownies with walnuts. yumm!

  106. I would cook the new veggie lasagna recipe I found here:

    http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/calorie-commando/vegetable-lasagna-recipe/index.html

    I changed some of the ingredients (added tomatoes and portobello mushrooms instead of squash and button mushrooms) and added in noodles instead of letting the zucchini serve as them--and it turned out amazing!!

  115. I would love to win these and I would make lasagna for sure! I dont have a recipe because spencer and I tend to improvise and throw in whatever we have on hand when we make it. The only staples we always put in are noodles and ricotta cheese :)

    ReplyDelete

  117. Love it! I'm a follower of your blog and I read it daily. <3

    ReplyDelete

  118. I'd make lasagna or baked pasta in the larger one, gotta love the carbs. And in the smaller one...something yummy to take to work. Either brownies with peanut butter chips or layered bars, or a pie of some sort, I like baking pies (or filled desserts) in that type of pan

    ReplyDelete

  119. I would make enchiladas. It's a recipe I made up so there's no link but to give you an idea you make a onion, bell pepper, green chili, black bean, corn, spinach and potato filling to stuff the tortiallas with then you top it with a homemade enchilada sauce. Cheese is optional.

  130. i would make chaluspas chicken (similar to an enchilada) i've never had a good baking dish to cook it in.

    all you need is
    shredded chicken
    cheddar and jack cheese
    diced green chiles
    sour cream
    cream of chicken soup

    mix together and place inside a tortilla, roll
    make sure you save enough sauce to add to the top of the dish
    bake for 30min at 350

    sooooo good
    i've never had anyone complain!

  134. wow are you really giving these away? epic! what would i bake? brownies. i know that sounds simple but i like my brownies plain and every time someone else makes them they put nuts and chocolate chips and other crap, ruining the sanctity of the brownie lol i'd also try my hand at some baked pasta!

    ReplyDelete

  135. First off, I LOVE Le Creuset dishes! I eye them up anytime I pass them by, but can't afford most of them. I do have a lovely utensil crock in the same pretty blue that my dear Jesse bought me. I adore it and love seeing it sit on my kitchen counter.

    Anyway, I thought about what I'd make in these dishes the whole day at work and it finally came to me on my bike ride home. In the larger dish, I would make my Mom's blueberry buckle recipe (a buckle is kind of like a cross between cake and cobbler, and oh so good). It brings back many happy memories from childhood, for it was a favorite dessert of mine. It's beautiful with swirls of purplish-blue, healthful, and classic. We always ate it warm with either whipped cream, or vanilla ice cream or frozen yogurt. My mom got the recipe in her 7th grade home economics class and hung onto it. I actually don't have it written down, but could easily get it from Mom with a quick phone call if you'd like it. I am a sucker for fruity desserts and this one is just so delightful and cheery. It would look marvelous in this blue dish!

    In the smaller dish I would make my friend, Molly's baked artichoke dip. It's flavorful, creamy and satisfying. It is comforting and tastes rich and fattening, but it's light, healthy, and dairy and gluten free! You'd swear there were cheese or full fat mayo in it. You get all the great flavor without the fat and stomach pains. I recently had this at her house as an appetizer before dinner. We ate it warm out of the oven with rice crackers. It's a great dinner party appetizer. Addicting too! I don't have the recipe, but have been meaning to get it. I do remember most of what's in it though.

    Also, I am a confirmed follower...finally! I have been a secret follower for a while, but revealed myself now. Your blog is nice to read and brightens my day. Cheers, Lauren and pardon my long post! I was excited :)

  139. I follow your blog (as I am here) and I love these dishes (don't we all). Brownies sound delish and so not worth eating with my new eating plan (not yet. need to make these good habits stick first). I would so make Chicken Enchiladas. I love them!

  172. wow - those are gorgeous! I would probably bake up some of my four cheese truffle oil mac n cheese. Its always a big hit at dinner parties!! I'd probably have to use both dishes to bake it because we all go back for seconds. And sometimes thirds!!

    Thanks for offering such an amazing giveaway!

    ReplyDelete

  173. I would definitely bake lemon surprise cake and macaroni and cheese....and enchiladas...and brownies. They're so pretty!

    ReplyDelete

    ReplyDelete

  177. I would cook some winner winner chicken dinner, which is just chicken with whatever spices/flavorings we are hankering after on a particular day. SOme favorites have been ranch dressing mix, italian soup flavoring and barbeque sauce with sour cream. Deli-icious.

  181. Holy cute cute baking dishes. I love them. I would make in them, brownies from scratch. I'm not a chocolatey person, but for some reason I love brownies. Betty Crocker fudge brownies hit the spot for me, nothing added, nothing on top. I would like to try them from scratch though.

    ReplyDelete

I'd bake mac n cheese in them {but not any mac and cheese} - my special cooking school version which involves an obscene amount of cheese {2 layers} and bread crumbs. If you email me I will happily send you the recipe :) I already tweeted this and follow your blog!

  192. As a baking fiend, I will ensure their good use- thus utilizing them frequently to create: mint chip brownies, cheese cake squares, chocolate chip squares and in the spirit of the lemming, mac n' cheese.

  200. I would bake so many things, but first thing that comes to mind is my Nana + Mom's lasagna, its a family favorite and passed down recipe. Its only handwritten on a recipe card, so I can't link to it, but its amazing.
    I see myself cooking lots of warm, comforting and delicious meals for my loved ones in those dishes!
