Carol’s cookbook, Table Talk, continues to be extremely popular in my house. My love for this book has only increased with each recipe I try! I have decided that it would only be fair to give one of you the chance to win a copy of this fantastic cookbook. For dinner tonight, we had Tried and True Meatballs with Zingy Red Sauce. My husband’s comments, “These were the best meatballs with sauce and pasta you have ever made!”. Want the recipe? Get the book 😉
Gathering together at least once a day for a family meal is very important. Because of that, I am also going to include in this giveaway Food for Talk by my friend Julienne Smith. Food for Talk is a box of conversation starters for families and friends to use at meal time to get the conversation flowing.
Entering to win is simple. First, head over to Carol’s website and check out Table Talk. After you have done that, come back and leave one comment on this post. Please fill out the form with your name, email address and blog address. If you don’t have a blog, that is fine. Just make sure you let me know how I can get a hold of you.
All entries must be received by Midnight CST on Wednesday, July 23rd.
What a great giveaway! I’m not a food blogger yet, but I’m working on one about my experiences.
The book sounds wonderful, and I don’t even like meatballs but I want some after looking at that picture.
Great, now I’m craving spaghetti and meatballs…hahaha!
The chicken and veggies look delicious! My family would be grateful for new recipes for me to try!
I love meatballs and those look fabulous! I so want that book! 🙂
Oooooh those look good. Saucy!
That picture is awesome!
Looks yummy!I would love to get the book!
I like how it’s geared towards meals that make sense in today’s times. The pictures look fabulous. I’d love to win the book! (I don’t have a blog…yet.)
Yum, meatballs! I wonder what her secret is?
Those recipes look delicious! These cookbooks could give my weekly dinner rotation a badly-needed facelife.
Your family must really eat well! I am so jealous. Forget the cruise I am just coming to your house to eat!!
We hold the same view about dinner time being family time. Looks like a great cookbook!
Mealtime is very important around our house. I didn’t grow up like that and want to make sure my kids do!! And cookbooks are an obsession of mine – I love a new cookbook!
I love cookbooks with pictures and table talk seems like it has some beautiful ones. Been enjoying the recipes on your blog. Thanks.
First of all – thanks for your email! You are too sweet!
I’m all over this giveaway, and even if I don’t win, I’m guessing I’ll be buying this book! I never realized how important table time was growing up, but now as an adult, and soon to be mom :), I realize how lucky I was and how much I want that for my family.
I think I’d like that book if the only recipe in it was the meatballs! I really enjoy your blog.
This book and your recipes look so yummy… it’s times like these, I question being a vegetarian! But since I’d probably only be able to use 1/4 or 1/3 of the 80 recipes in her fantastic book, I’d love to win this for my sister. She’s our family’s next budding chef-du-jour, and she’d LOVE it. Thanks for the chance to win and giving us your reviews/opinion of the book. Sometimes it’s hard to know if a book will ‘produce’, before you buy and try it out.
I love your blog and share your feelings about family dinners. Some of the best discussions happen when everyone gathers around the table and my favorite memories from my own childhood were made there. I can’t wait to check out this book.
I just love the sound of “Zingy red sauce”! Sounds like it’s right up my alley.
I have long been a fan of your cooking and now that you’ve shared the secrets of your source I am even more enthralled!
Dinner is one of our definite times of day. I don’t like it when things interfer with that beloved family time. Plus, it’s the one place where I know I’ll have praise instead of complaints.
this looks positively delish! i’ve always been a fan of having dinner together at the end of the day with my loved ones. when i grow up, i’ll also continue that tradition.
What a gorgeous book, There is really something great about a book that shows pictures with all it’s recipes. I’m a novice food blogger, just got started last month.
Yeah…definitely starting to crave meatballs now…mmmm
This book looks great. I love the photography. We make a point to eat dinner together every night of the week as a family. As much as you gushed over it, how could I possibly pass up a chance to win it?
I eat dinner with The Husband as often as his schedule allows and I really miss it when he’s not home. I’d love the book! One can never have an excess of cookbooks… until you have to move across the country.
Mmmm, meatballs. Eating dinner with my family every night is one of my fondest memories. I don’t have any children yet, but we still do family dinner every night–me and my husband, no TV, all talk.
I CRAVE meatballs! Esp now b/c I’ve been making Asian food every single day and would love a change in pace!
Eek, another cookbook on my “must have” list!
The meatballs and sauce look delicious. The cookbook looks really nice, too. I would love to cook from it.
I’d already put this on my amazon wish list (how come they don’t have a photo of the cover yet??) due to your glowing reviews!
That looks so delicious!
This looks like a wonderful book!
Even if I don’t win, I will probably by the cookbook. It looks awesome!! I’m always on the search for the perfect meatball since my husband loves meatballs. Your site is great, I’m glad I found it.
Yum, those meatballs look amazing!
I’m really intrigued by this book! You seem to have such good luck with all of the recipes. I rarely find a cookbook where I love every recipe. The carrot cake in the post after this one is the one that really drew me in though! Thanks for offering such a wonderful give-away.
Yum! These meatballs look great and I can’t wait to make the carrot cake!! Love your blog!
I love the idea of Table Talk. Family meal time is very important and I remember many wonderful conversations around the dinner table as a child. In my life having everyone at the table every night has not always been practical but it is still always a worthy goal!
I *LOVE* cookbooks, and those meatballs and the carrot cake look delicious, so count me in for the raffle!
You got me with the carrot cake photo – beautiful.
I am always looking for new recipes and new ways to improve eating!!
This books sounds fantastic-and the carrot cake in the following post looks delicious!
Mmmm… the book sounds like a winner!! I’d love to make delish dishes! Hope I win!
How perfect to post about spaghetti! That is what we had for dinner that night; however, the meatballs in your recipe post look so much better!

I do not currently have any kids, but my future plans involve them sitting at the table with my husband and I to make sure we have some quality family time. My family did this growing up, and it’s one of the best memories I can remember. The food looks amazing!
Not a blogger, but I spend hours reading everyone’s blog. Love cooking and eating, sharing new ideas and reviving old ones. Great looking food.
With all of the positive things you’ve said about this book, I’d love to win a copy! I hope you’re having a great time visiting your parents.
Great cookbook. those meatballs look fantastic. Love to win a copy;)
I made the Presidential Muffins the other day, and they were divine – worlds better than the Betty Crocker blueberry muffins I had made earlier in the summer. Thanks for sharing the great new cookbook and for giving me such wonderful recipes on your blog!
Like I need another cook book, but this looks GREAT!!
