The Best Ever Birthday story cook book giveaway

Greetings all,
NuffNang have featured an advertisement for this awesome story cook book on my blog for a few weeks & i was lucky enough to review it too, now i have one to giveaway!!  I purchased & blogged about the first book in this series 'My Grandmother's Kitchen' by Louise Fulton Keats (granddaughter to the Australian cooking doyen Margaret Fulton) . . . they are both fantastic!!  
The Best Ever Birthday starts off as a story, where you follow LuLu & Henry on a party journey . . . uh oh, Nutmeg the puppy + birthday cake . . . i won't spoil the ending!!
 Then the book is filled with recipes (from the story) with everything from sandwiches to drinks!!
 It's simple to follow with practical recipes you will use over & over.
 Jam packed with themes & ideas.
 Including a teddy bear picnic - yes please!!
 I'm now devoting my life to finding this pink pedestal, what a sweet way to present a meringue!!
 Now this Basic Butter Cake recipe is as close to my mother's i have ever tasted (perhaps my mummy was using Margaret Fulton's original??)  Printed with striped vintage straws, i love the layout, colour & quirky imagery in the book, page after page of pretty.
We left only crumbs . . . next time i'm doubling the batter as it is a fantastic school recess treat.
 Look at the inside back cover, see what i mean, scrummy.
Fancy a copy of this beautiful story cookbook in your kitchen library??  Just leave a comment at this post & please be a follower of my blog.  Winner drawn Friday 15th June, value $24.95, good luck!!  Love Posie
This was Product Talk by NuffNang.  Thanks!!

  32. Right here is the right website for everyone who wishes to find out about this topic.

    You understand so much its almost tough to argue with you (not
    that I actually will need to…HaHa). You definitely put a brand new spin on a topic that has been written about for years.
    Great stuff, just great!
