The entry period for this giveaway is now closed, but check out this section for open Giveaways!
Today’s Back-to-School Books giveaway is for what was our favorite class in middle school…
Drama.
We went on to a very involved theater “career” throughout high school, but never quite made it to TV and movies like we dreamt we would. The closest we’ve come so far is this set of three books from TV’s Food Network that we’re giving away to some loyal FN fan (Or friend of a fan who can re-gift the books if he or she wins!) Two of them are cookbooks, one dedicated to “one pot wonders” from Emeril Lagasse who once was the grand spectacle of food TV, now seems relatively tame next to the guy whose cookbook is the second we have, Guy Fieri. The third book is a definitive “Insider’s Guide to The Next Food Network Star TV Show.
Lots of drama! You know you can’t help but live it and watch it!
Ok. So.
How to Enter this Set-of-Three Giveaway (one person gets all 3 books!)
- Leave a comment with YOUR FAVORITE TV SHOW! It doesn’t have to be a food-related TV Show, and don’t worry if you don’t watch TV (I don’t), just make something up. It doesn’t matter what you say, as this is a random drawing, but it does matter that you do comment with something.
- Make sure to enter your email address in the box provided so we can contact you
- Share this giveaway post with your friends on facebook and twitter! (not required, but we’d love the help!)
You have until next Monday September 17, 2012 at 5 PM PST to comment. Everyone is welcome to comment to enter, but we can only ship this stuff in the U.S. (So if you’re outside the US and win, you just need to provide us with a US mailing address to send!)
Good luck!
(And by the way, in case anyone is wondering, even though I don’t watch TV, I am currently infatuated with New Girl, Glee, and The Mindy Project, which hasn’t even started yet, but oh my, watch the series premiere online anyway.)

I absolutely love Guy. In fact, I went to Diners Driveins and Dives to see if there were recommendations for Vegas — which unfortunately I didn’t get to, but it was a cool read. I love when he goes to Vancouver as I am in Canada. We have a similar FN show — you gotta eat here, that is a take on D3, but Guy won my heart first.

My favorite tv show of all time is Alias! But currently love Parenthood, all of Food Network, and Scandal!
I’m way behind on my TV consumption, so I’m only just now watching the British version of Kitchen Nightmares. I’m in love!
So many! Mad Men, Glee, Grey’s Anatomy, and HIMYM! ( and part of me feels compelled to admit the occasional guilty-pleasure Gossip Girl and Once Upon a Time). The hiatus over the summer turned me onto the Newsroom, which is fantastic!
Suits!
Nip/Tuck. Although it’s been off the air for a few years, I loved every minute of it.
Currently, I love Girls and True Blood! The Mindy Project is pretty fun too.
True Blood.
