Foodie Friday: Book Launch Party & KitchenAid Mixer Giveaway

Welcome to Foodie Friday. I'm giving away a Kitchenaid mixer to celebrate the publication of A Teeny Bit of Trouble, my ninth book (and 8th novel). It's the second installment of a mainstream mystery series, which was kicked off by last year's Gone With a Handsomer Man. The books feature the adventures of a cook named Teeny, and they're set in Charleston, South Carolina and in the fictional town of Bonaventure, Georgia (a little Savannah). The books involve bulldogs, comic situations, a mystery, a little romance, food galore, Rainbow Row, and lots of red velvet cake.


The winner of the mixer will receive a copy of the book. But I'm also giving away 6 copies of A Teeny Bit of Trouble. If you've already bought the book and would like a copy of either Gone With a Handsomer Man or one of my previous novels/cookbook, just email me. I'll send you a complimentary book, your choice.

To enter the contest, be a follower of Rattlebridge Farm and leave a comment about your favorite food memory. The contest ends Wednesday, April 18th, and the winners will be announced next Foodie Friday (more about that later).Be sure to stop by Between Naps on the Porch for a chance to win a $100 Amazon gift certificate and a copy of A Teeny Bit of Trouble. My friend Susan, of BNOTP, has created a gorgeous tablescape, complete with red velvet cupcakes and an adorable vignette with a bride and groom. It's one of the most charming tablescapes I've seen, and I know you'll love it, too.
