My favourite food blog, Tartelette, is offering a fabulous giveaway: "Macarons: Authentic French Cookie Recipes from the Macaron Cafe" by Cecile Cannone. All you need to do is leave a comment on the blog. I really shouldn't be telling you because I want to win and have the cookbook all to myself. I desperately need help with macarons as I've never been able to meet the challenge. Though, I am good at eating them...

Thank you so much to everyone who entered. After collecting all the names and pulling one from a hat, OK it was a sock, I'm thrilled to announce that Penny Peberday has won! Well done. I'll be in contact soon

By the way, I couldn't resist this birdie painting by Michele Maule. She's mine now and flutters above my computer

How would you like to own this stunning Mother of Pearl pendant? Created from oyster shell, it's like a pearl on steroids with the same beautiful lustre without the big price tag

Well you can! Simply leave a comment with your email on this post and I'll add your name to the list. Twitter or Facebook the promo and I'll send warm fuzzies your way. You can find more pendants in my jewellery shop Cate Holst on Etsy

Hello dear readers! I've had fun in the last few days hand-carving stamps into bauble shapes. If you'd like these bauble stamps to make Christmas cards, tags or use as a repeat pattern to create wrapping paper, simply leave a comment with your email and I'll draw a winner this time next week on 8 December is now closed. Good luck and may we have peace and joy for Christmas!
