How cute! Favorite food at the moment is pan roasted brussel sprouts. (pghjezebel@gmail.com)
Pretty much anything my husband cooks! He can cook so well without a recipe. I, on the other hand, cannot.
How beautiful! My favorite food...that is a hard one! I don't know if I can pick.
What an awesome giveaway!
During the summer, my favorite foods come straight from the farmer's market, these days I'm loving fresh squash and blueberries.
Homemade tacos are my favorite!
Lindseycurlygirl@aol.com
I've got the anxious no eating bug right now, so I can't think of a favorite. But as silly as this sounds...all I want to eat is supreme pizza from Sam's club right now. That has nothing to do with cooking, I know.
Ooo, lovely.
Watermelon. Watermelon. And more watermelon.
Please.

lollybelle22@yahoo.com
and my favorite food is my husband's vegetable biryani
I love my mom's homemade pasta and tomato sauce with whole Italian sausages inside. My dad is Italian and my mom is a wonderful cook, so I am one spoiled girl.
Beautiful!!! I love to cook and this would be such a great addition to my home!! My favorite food is chocolate. Total cliche for girls I think.
oh, how beautiful! i love cookbooks. my mom always said, "no one ever taught me how to cook...but my mother taught me how to read" so she could cook anything with a recipe!
my favorite food would have to be anything sitting down together as a family...but i do have a thing for anything cooked on a BBQ. yuuuuuumy.
strawberry soup.
or blueberry.
I love cookbooks and I LOVE letterpress!
Favorite food would have to be anything chocolate.
such a lovely cookbook! my favorite food is any food that my mother makes. honestly, nothing is as good as her cooking!
wow, this looks gorgeous.
i love cookbooks you can make yourself, i have all the recipes that my mum has perfected in a little one she wrote.
my favourite foods at the moment have to be salt and pepper prawns, {something my boyfriend has managed to perfect!} or my mum's homemade carrot cake. yummy!
oh my goodness...so lovely! favorite food?? hmm...just about anything.
Mashed potatoes and gravy with a roast. Yum. Cute cookbook.
Awesome cookbook. I'm such a sucker for anything food related and letterpress. Favorite food...my current obsession is pickled carrots (from Molly of Orangette's book).
My two loves collide: cook books and letterpress. Love it! So fun! My favorite food is fresh fruit: pineapple, mango, berries... anything fresh and sweet.
how beauitful!
i love tostones (fried plantains) and I always love trying something new!
I love this cookbook! It is awesome! I have a recipe blog with my sisters. We have so much fun collecting recipes. A letterpress cookbook would make for a classy collection!
My favorite thing right now is grilled pizza!
My favorite food....well, considering I am doing weight watchers right now it would be anything with SUGAR!!!! Really, my fav is probaby pizza...sounds crazy I know...it is right up there with cheese cake....oh yum! Love the cookbook, it is really cool! Hope to get lucky!
Great idea and beautiful! I could not be more in love with baked brie with honey than I am right now!

What a cute cookbook-and a wonderful idea for a giveaway! My favorite food, which definitely changes on a regular basis, currently is seared ahi tuna steaks rolled in sesame seeds and wasabi soy sauce :)
What a gorgeous book! Favorite food? So hard to choose ... pizza, french fries, cupcakes ... not a very healthy girl, am I?
that's a tough one...but green bean casserole is one of my favorite foods. so warm and comforting! and i LOVE the crunchy french fried onions on the top. i often had this at family holidays growing up, and now that i am married, i have memorized and mastered green bean casserole! :)
p.s. your blog is really encouraging. i found it from a friend's blog and really enjoy reading it!
thanks!
erica
homemade guacamole. yum!
how does one choose a favorite food? this is the most difficult question of them all. how about my favorite food as of right now? yummy chicken caesar sandwich from la madeleine. mmmm.
just one favorite? peaches... anything mexican... steak... yum...
oh it's beautiful! My favorite food is yam and black bean burritos!
Favorite food: anything in the dessert category and peach cobbler, mint brownies, and chocolate chip cookies to be specific.
oh my gosh! I want to win so badly. seriously. and my favorite food? I can't decide, I basically love ALL food!! but I think my new summertime obsession might be making homemade pizzas on the grill. I think I've perfected my dough recipe and can't wait to explore all the yummy possibilities! you + d + b will have to come over sometime for a fabulous grilled pizza experience.
it looks great
YUM! I love sushi but my favorite food to cook for my family and I is stuffed pasta shells.
jkurtley@gmail.com
oh this is splendid! my favorite food would have to be... authentic cheese enchiladas! mmm!!
I am drooling just looking at this... so pretty
My favorite food is manicotti-- or fresh strawberries. Delish!
I'm newly married of just three weeks today, and we've moved from away our home town for the summer. I was craving my mom's roast and potatoes that she makes every Sunday so that our new home would feel like my parent's house, so I made it this past Sunday. I love how certain smells just remind me of my parent's house, bringing all the laughter and smiling faces of my family with it.
I would love this cookbook to start my own collection! It's absolutely adorable!
I'm from Hawaii so my all time favorite food is Hawaiian food: the kalua pork, lomi salmon, raw fish, yum.
That cookbook is so pretty. I wish I could win it. Thanks for the chance.
ooo so pretty, I love it!
Does dessert count as a favorite food?! I am a major sweet tooth and I love fruit and bread too- you got me going on a bread making rampage! :)
What a nice giveaway! I love cookbooks. I'd have to say that my favorite food is taco salad. (leslieshields@gmail.com)

My favorite food is fresh tomatoes, basil, garlic & Parmesan cheese on toasted french bread.

Beautiful book, how happy it would make me when I win. My favorite food is my very own lasagna. Made from scratch, with carrots and mushrooms. Yum. Now I might want to make it again.
Mmmmm.

My favorite food? Seriously? Too hard. Okay, if you're forcing me: ice cream. But runners-up: fresh-from-the-vine tomatoes, corn on the cob, blueberries, strawberry tart, my mom's summer ziti, my dad's macaroni salad, cold watermelon on a hot day....oh the list goes on and on!
Anything Mexican. But my real favorite food is a doughnut, though I rarely allow myself them because I could eat 12 in a sitting.
Thanks Marta!
My favorite food is chicken divan. Love to share it, love to serve it, love it!

Ice cream. Seriously. I'll skip dinner any day for a bowl of ice cream.
iluvchrisnlevi@aol.com

thanks for sharing :)
That is so lovely!
racheldallaire@gmail.com

My fave food is my granny's chocolte cake. She made her own frosting and it was to die for. I can't replicate though, I think she used a secret ingredient but I still try :) Have a great Friday!!

I adore food, it's my hobby, my business, my life. I'm currently jonesing for a good falafel sandwich (it's hard to say what my favorite food is) or a fish picatta. I would love this piece to add to my cookbook shelf =)
My favorite food cannot be made singular since 98% of the meals made at my friend's hands is the best thing ever tasted on the palate of the human experience. It's some Old World as we mosey through the grocery store aisles, selecting the wine, then struggling down the stairs with the bags. I put things away for her while she selects tonight's ingredients. Then she performs some sort of hidden magic in plain sight as I sit at the table and ramble nothing sentences. And once her spell has been cast into completion she fills the plates, I the cups, and together we sit down. It's not a food but experience that I treasure most.
oh my goodness gracious.
cooking?
and letterpress?
together???
i love it.
and i love my mom's italian chicken. when she makes it i eat and eat and eat.
Right now, pesto chicken salad on fresh french bread...
Pesto... I love that it can be modified in many different ways and incorporated into almost any dish. However, the absolute best is freshly made basil pesto with linguini. Why it has to be linguini I don't really know, but for me, it is the best tasting pasta shape to pair with pesto!
mmm... tomato artichoke soup on a cold day. yum.
jeffrey
anything that has the word pasta in it.

I love onions sauteed in olive oil and butter, then add brown sugar and spicy brown mustard....I top them on a burger or a steak. Yummy! (I got the recipe from Rachel Ray btw)
I am a big collector of artistic business cards! This letterpress is just beautiful.
How adorable. My favorite food...pizza, hands down. Thanks.
Wow. How lovely. I love watermelon & rootbeer. :)
love the cook book and i love food. i love it all, but right now i am into homemade granola with home dried raisins and local pecans.
i'm pretty sure my favorite food right now is salad. JUST KIDDING. it's sugar cookies.
p.s. cookbooks are such a good idea.
YES PLEASE!
homemade pizza with an olive oil/minced garlic base, fresh basil, sliced cherry tomatoes, and whatever cheeses i have on hand. yum :)
How in the world to choose a favorite food? I guess I'd have to say sushi. Yummmmmm.
I'd have to say a BIG JUICY (in-season) Fuji A.P.P.L.E. Nothing better. Good luck everyone!
letterpressed cookbook! i did not know such things existed. what a fun idea! i'll definitely have to look into purchasing such things if i dont win. which i'm not likely to as i've yet to win anything online. oh well. now, do they have letterpressed insert pages? that would be fun too.
i LOVE italian food. i also love international pasta/noodle dishes. i love chow mein, as much as i love spaghetti, as much as i love pad thai, as much as i love vietnamese noodles, as much as i love the pasta-y, noodle-y dishes of other cultures!

Strawberry sorbet! Does that count as a food? I love food so much I have to separate it into categories and that is definitely more of a treat.
I do love that spinach quiche you so kindly blogged about some time ago.
this is absolutely beautiful!
this might sound weird but my favorite food is popcorn. air-popped, drizzled with real butter, hit with a dash of salt, and then grate some parmesan on top.
when i was growing up every sunday night was popcorn for dinner. my twin sister and i would sit on the kitchen floor and share our huge wooden bowl. we loved it so much we had rules about how many kernels you could eat at a time, and the other one had to stop when one girl had to get up for something.
Love it! My favorite food right now is Lefty's pizza in my neighborhood in San Diego!
The Hubs' amazing homemade pasta sauce. He made it on our second date. If I wasn't already smitten, he had me hooked for life after that!
Being a New Englander I absolutely love seafood! My absolute favorite meal (even since I was little) is linguine & white clam sauce. YUM!
What a great cookbook find!

OMG that is soooooo nice! Just what I need... x
Oh shoot, forgot to say what my favourite food is... probably steak & fries... or peanut butter sandwiches... or nut brownie with warm berries...
Oh dear, I can't decide!
Holy cow, that is awesome! My favorite food is definitely sushi. Can't get enough of a tuna avocado roll.
Are you serious??!!! Thats such an amazing giveaway. Would love to have it in my hands!!! When you do the giveaway don't think about that picture we spoke about yesterday.
oh my favorite lately have been yummy chicken tacos, with refried beans, etc. very good.
i am trying so very hard to lose the 3 pounds i gained on a wonderful cruise. so my favorite food is :
almonds.
i can snack on these all day and it keeps me away from the chocolate and cookies.
i adore cookbooks. i wonder who the lucky winner will be?
wow, this is a beautiful book. i am falling in love with letterpress for sure! my favorite food....gosh, i have to pick one. ok, its beautiful homemade pizza - with all kinds of different toppings and sauces. i can't help it. :)
smnannen@yahoo.com
What a fun giveaway! What is better than homemade bread and jam. pretty much nothing.....but maybe homemade cheesecake (new york stye)?
I have a wedding in June to go to where they have asked us to bring family recipes. This would be PERFECT for them!! I might just have to buy it for them.
what a fun idea!
my favorite thing lately has been homemade eclair cake, i just discovered it and think this will be my go to summer dessert
i saw the martha show where they spotlighted this at the end - sooo cute! i wish i was there in the audience so i could've taken one home. but who knows, maybe i'll get super lucky and get it here!
my favourite dish is one i'm making tonight - homemade macaroni and cheese. not the box stuff...the real homemade deliciously cheesy stuff!
katieolsenheap@yahoo.ca
I have quite a few favorites, but lately I've been eating cheese quesadillas like they're going out of style.
I love food! My favorite right now is a fresh turkey sandwich from a yummy deli called the Smiling Moose!
This cookbook is beautiful! You always share the greatest paper goods. My favorite food is raw oysters, slurped by the sea.
Beautiful book! My favorite food of the moment has to be fajitas. Yum. : )
What a BEAUTIFUL cookbook.
My favorite food (for the moment) is honey lime chicken enchiladas. TOO DIE FOR!
azdunaway@hotmail.com
Hands down, chocolate is my favorite food. Thanks for doing the giveaway- who wouldn't want one of these??
Favorite food? Hmmmm...in the summer, anything fresh; hand picked.
Thank you for the giveaway!
i love the cookbook! letterpress makes everything look elegant and there's something about the texture that i love.
my favorite food (among many) is a salad that my mom makes-i think it's called roasted red pepper salad. she actually roasts the peppers on a burner to make a dressing and then the salad has ham slices, black-eyed peas and if i remember right, arugula and various spinaches. it's funny that it's my favorite because i'm a REALLY picky eater but it's divine and impossible to resist.
Well, my favorite food is one I don't have to cook! It seems like everything is more delicious when someone else cooks it for me! I LOVE the idea of making my own cookbook. My mother-in-law had one similar and since her sudden passing, it has become a family treasure. Love your blog!

Fingers crossed!!!
My favorite food is desserts. It's a wonder I'm not the size of a house. :)
My absolute favorite food would have to be spaghetti. I'm usually good at not over-eating, but spaghetti is the one food that I will consume until the verge of becoming physically ill. My ex-boyfriend's best friend's grandmother was a tiny little japanese woman who made the best spaghetti sauce I have ever tasted -- her sauce was almost more of a 'spaghetti soup.' There was something in it, though, that made that sauce the most delicious and magical thing I have ever tasted, and to this day that ingredient remains a mystery.
