Cookbook Giveaway, Day 2

UPDATE: Today’s random winner is Amy, but since we have at least three Amys who read this blog (and entered to win this book), I need to be more specific! The winner is the Amy who left comment #16 on this thread, and who wrote: “Soup! I would love to win this book!” Amy #16, please send me an e-mail with your full name and shipping address at lindsey.nair@roanoke.com. Congrats! Two more days of giveaways, y’all. END UPDATE

Alrighty, friends and neighbors, it is time for the second book giveaway in our Countdown to Christmas in books. And today’s cookbook is hot off the press!

The recently released “Mr. Sunday’s Soups” was written by Lorraine Wallace, who is married to Fox News Sunday anchor Chris Wallace (Mike Wallace’s son). I have not caught Mr. Wallace’s show, but apparently his nickname is “Mr. Sunday.” And apparently, Mrs. Sunday is quite the little soup maker. Her husband likes to rave about her soups on-air.

Now, Lorraine Wallace has released a book of her soups, and what better time of year than the dregs of winter to learn a few new soup recipes? How about Minestrone & Arugula Salad Soup, Ancho Pork & Hominy Soup, Salmon Chowder or Mexican Albondigas, a concoction enriched with Mexican-style meatballs?

I am going to share that last recipe here. In order to win this book, please leave a comment on this blog entry before 5 p.m. today. I will select the winner randomly. Best of luck!

    The meatball receipe reads yummy. I’m having to change my eating habits to get away from saturated fats. This is a receipe that I could use. Thanks for sharing it.

    I love soups! I need some new recipes!

  5. Marj Holdren | December 22, 2010 at 8:45 am

    People wonder why I love winter and cold weather. The answer is SOUP! Cold weather is soup weather. There is nothing cozier than having a big pot of soup simmering on the stove. This recipe sound “YOM”. Lots of ingredients though…

    LOVE soup!! the best kind of dinner on a cold night!

  7. Rmac | December 22, 2010 at 8:49 am

    Soup is the best winter meal. I would like to have recipes for more kinds of soup in addition to the 3 or 4 favorites we now enjoy. We had home made Olive Garden Italian soup last night

  8. Carolyn | December 22, 2010 at 8:54 am

    Soup this time of year sounds like just the ticket! This is a great idea, you get to give everybody a Christmas gift.

  9. Vickie | December 22, 2010 at 9:03 am

    I can’t think of a more suitable cookbook for this time of year…page after page of tummy warming hugs in a bowl. Enter me into the running, please!

  10. Cameron Corbin | December 22, 2010 at 9:03 am

    I love soup all kinds…pick me pick me :)

  11. Liz | December 22, 2010 at 9:09 am

    Don’t make many soups and my recipes handed down from Grandmother my husband doesn’t like.

  12. Lindsey Nair | December 22, 2010 at 9:34 am

    Marj, I thought that recipe sounded good, too. I’m not sure why you couldn’t use ground pork and ground chicken to save the step of processing whole meats. That would save some time. Also, many of the ingredients are fairly basic, like salt, pepper and garlic.

  13. Debbie | December 22, 2010 at 9:36 am

    I love soup! Put my name in the hat please.

  14. Autumn | December 22, 2010 at 9:39 am

    I love soup. It’s great in the winter, but I love soup all year!

  15. Becky | December 22, 2010 at 9:40 am

    I hope it has a good Chicken Noodle Soup recipe!!! I need one!

  16. Amy | December 22, 2010 at 10:30 am

    Soup! I would love to win this book!

  17. Amy Hanek | December 22, 2010 at 11:58 am

    My favorite soup of all time is Tomato Bisque. I’m also a fan of Butternut Squash soup. I would love to win this book and add to my soup-making knowledge!

  18. Amy | December 22, 2010 at 12:32 pm

    I’m a different Amy but my family loves soup!

  19. Sandi Saunders | December 22, 2010 at 2:06 pm

    From thick and hearty to thin and delicate, soup is good stuff!

  20. Dennis | December 22, 2010 at 3:42 pm

    I love soup! And today I’m making my entry in time to be in the drawing! I wish good luck to everyone but I want to win!

  21. JBC | December 22, 2010 at 3:47 pm

    Our family also loves soup year ’round. I have heard Mr. Wallace make a comment about his wife’s soups before; would love to have it!
