The Flapper Pie & a Blue Prairie Sky Cookbook Celebration Giveaway!

It shouldn’t be a surprise to anyone that is a reader of The Kitchen Magpie that I have been planning this giveaway since I landed my book deal.

Because I got to shop, you guys and it wasn’t for me. That’s a selfless act, right? Shopping for you guys? I am sooo giving and thinking of others. Saint Karlynn, even.

Back to real life know, when it came time to start thinking about the giveaway,I knew a few things for sure.

  • It would have a vintage theme
  • It would involve the products made for the 100th anniversary of Pyrex in 2015. I knew this because I bought ten boxes of the measuring cup sets. I’m psychic like that.
  • It would be one of the biggest giveaways that I have ever done here on the Kitchen Magpie
  • I would have a hard time waiting for October 25th, 2016. The official launch date of my first cookbook, Flapper Pie & a Blue Prairie Sky.

And that’s TODAY!!!

OH MAH GAWD YOU GUYS MY BOOK IS OUT!!!! EEEEEK!

Right HERE. Click that link right there to go and see/buy my book on Amazon.

Let’s talk about the GRAND PRIZE.

See those gorgeous bowls right up there? Those are a complete set of Pyrex Butterfly Gold Mixing Bowls from the 1970’s. The largest bottom bowl is a little harder to find than the other three, but I found the entire set of four this summer in Wisconsin and tucked it away for this giveaway. Which hurt, because this is one of my favourite patterns since my Mom used these in the 70’s when I was a kid. Oh the memories of this Pyrex pattern!!!  I don’t have this set as it’s the only one I’ve found with the bottom bowl. But again, Saint Karlynn, right? Those are part of the Grand Prize.

Let’s not forget a copy of my book and I’m also adding in a set of the limited edition 100th anniversary of Pyrex measuring cups that came out last year.

Now, that’s just the GRAND PRIZE.

I also have NINE MORE SETS of my book and the 100th Anniversary Pyrex measuring cups set. NINE more chances for you to win!

You guys, it’s my way of saying thank you. Thank you from the bottom of my Flapper Pie lovin’ heart. Thanks to all of you that are loyal readers of the blog, thank you to everyone that pre-ordered my cookbook. All of you that bought my book on QVC ( oh yes, you American readers have been just as amazing as my Canadian ones with your love and support!) So saying that, I am opening this contest up to residents of Canada AND the USA!! By the way, this post isn’t sponsored or have anything to do with Pyrex, just the fact that I love it and bought it all for you.

  12. How do you pick a favourite dessert??? It changes with the seasons – rhubarb crisp in the spring, berries & ice-cream in the summer, pumpkin slice in the fall, gingerbread cake with whipped cream in the winter, and chocolate, well that covers all four seasons! ;)

  15. At this time year, it’s Vinetarte!  My mom used to send it to me from an Icelandic lady from Gimli every Christmas.  Now she makes her own and it’s amazing, which means I now have to make it.
    I will look for your book too :)

  59. Heard you this morning on CBC and it took me to my favourite recipe book that is stuffed with all of our family favourites. Such a choice, but I’ve been missing my mom’s marble cake with her magical chocolate frosting.

  78. Such a hard decision! My favourite desserts would probably be carrot cake with cream cheese icing, or sex in a pan!

  80. I am so sure my Mom has the pattern too but in a red style one. Which year is that one from I wonder? Anyways, my favourite dessert is anything made with butter – like croissants! Though, I’m pretty biased about macarons being my favourite dessert too! :)

  115. awesome this is cool , congrats on the cookbook my mom had the blue pyrex set, and i found the big bowl with handles at a second hand store i love it

    Reply

  120. I got my book from Amazon. I’m having a dinner party next weekend, I’ll use it for my inspiration. Those Pyrex bowls are awesome. I’d visited a few antique sales this past summer but was unsuccessful in finding the whole set. That would make me happy! Are you sure you want to part with it????

    Reply

  121. The bowls are gorgeous. My Mom had a green bowl, not sure if she had all four. Plenty of potato salads and bannock making and mashed potatoes went on in that bowl. Going to go find it. And take a pic!

  122. Hi Karlynn – I love the look of your new cookbook.  I am a collector of vintage cookbooks so, your vintage old-fashioned desserts cookbook will be a stunning addition to my collection.  Personally, I love pie.  All types of pie but, banana cream or cherry pie are at the top of my list.  I also love a classic strawberry shortcake with tons of whipped cream and berries.

  128. I can’t wait for my cookbook to arrive next week! My favourite dessert is your lemon pudding cake slathered with your lemon buttercream.. truth be told, your buttercream icing is my favourite dessert.. 🙂 Congratulations on the cookbook!

  130. The inside is GORGEOUS! Can’t wait to start baking through it. 🙂 I preordered in July and it was on my doorstep before lunchtime. Today is my oldest’s 4th Birthday, so it was a “Yay for surviving!” present to myself. 😉 😛

  132. My favourite dessert isn’t fancy but it is our family classic/favourite and has been for 30 plus years. It’s called Broken Glass and it’s made with jello, graham crumbs and whipped cream.

  155. Can’t wait to see the cookbook, I’ve been watching along on your Facebook page for the last few years. I ordered the book this morning as a gift to my Grandma, because I know she’ll enjoy looking through it and getting my Grandpa to make some recipes for the rest of the family, as her health isn’t what it used to be. <3
