Read it and Eat - contest!

Here is your chance to "read it and eat." Cookbooks are full of wonderful reading and fabulous food. Many other books are full of wonderful eating and fabulous reading (for example, many mystery series include recipes, restaurants, or references to cooking from gourmet through the gamut to backyard BBQ.)

Your mission: Submit a photo of your favorite literary book, your favorite meal from a cookbook, or anything else relating to the topic of a summer feast. Include a caption or short commentary on what makes a good eating (reading) book.


The judges are partial to chocolate and could be open to sample bribery ;)

Entries must be submitted by August 27, 2010.
