The winner of the Gooseberry Patch Homestyle in a Hurry Cookbook is..... Comment #292 angie{at}akdesignsboutique{dot}com
Are you a Gooseberry Patch Fan? Well I am, more of a gooseberry patch junkie than a fan. I adore everything about Gooseberry Patch. Their country decor, calenders, cookbooks and their inviting charming attitude. To me Gooseberry Patch is more like an extension of my family. You see that is just how Vickie and Jo Ann make you feel when you read their blog, website, face book page and all their cookbooks. They have such a welcoming and cozy feeling about them and I just love it.
I am beyond excited to share with you that I have been picked to be one of Gooseberry Patches Early Bird Reviewers. What is a early bird reviewer you ask? Well let me explain I will receive not yet released Gooseberry Patch Cookbooks to review and share with my readers. Ike's............ I am so glad I finally got that out. It's been so hard trying to keep that cat in the bag. I am tickled pink to even be chosen and even more excited to be receiving titles from my favorite cookbooks series.
So be on the lookout because today's review will be the first of many throughout 2011. And one more thing before I get on with my post. With each cookbook I review, Gooseberry Patch has been generous enough to include a second copy to be given away to one of my readers!!! How cool is that? So don't worry you will have several opportunities to win a few of these titles yourself. If you are not a gooseberry patch fan you will be as soon as you get your hands on one of their cookbooks.

- Quick Bites
- No Fuss Soups & Sandwiches
- Speedy Sides & Salads
- Dinner in a Dash
- Easy as Pie Desserts
I know it is hard for some folks to find the time to cook a homemade meal. Especially these days because so many people are so busy in their lives. Homestyle in a hurry has over 200 yummy recipes that will take you from the kitchen to the table in a snap. Who doesn't like that? The recipes in this cookbook are so quick and easy you can make a few in just one sitting to round off a perfect meal. While I was going through this cookbook it was so hard to choose what recipes I wanted to sample. I have so many marked off with paperclips because the recipes are that good.
The second recipe I tried was for Mountain Momma Corn on page 124. I have made this recipe numerous times. Some people call it cream cheese corn. Whatever name you throw on it the corn is so creamy and good. This recipe is so simple and easy and only requires three ingredients. My daughter loves corn so this is one of her favorite ways to have it.

The third and final recipe I chose was for Orange Blossom Honey Butter on page 14. Yummers!!!!! I was going to just make plain old honey butter to slather on these pumpkin biscuits, but the orange blossom honey butter was so much better. I can't wait to try this on a bunch of other breads.
Well there you have it those are the recipes I chose to sample. I have a few others I am dying to try, California Omelet, Buttery Coffee Cake, Ooey-Gooey Mozzarella Sticks, Garlicky Shrimp & Pasta, Speedy Spanish Rice, Beef & Snow Peas, and Yummy Lemon Blossoms (my dd will love these) . So be on the look out for a few more recipes form this wonderful cookbook. All in all I was quite impressed with Homestyle in a Hurry.
I really like that all the recipes are from home cooks just like you and me. I also love that all of the recipes in this book require only a handful of ingredients, nothing fancy schmancey or hard to find. I mean really who has time for all that. If you know of a busy mom that wants to cook great home cooked meals, but just doesn't have the time to do it. Heck maybe that person is you. I know it can be me on some occasions. If that's the case then this cookbook would be perfect.
"Homestyle in a Hurry" will not be released until mid -January, but Gooseberry Patch has sent me an extra copy to share with you. If you can't wait you can also pre order a copy from amazon for $9.35 that is such an awesome price and a 45% savings. Now onto the giveaway rules.

Sorry to say...I've never heard of this collection of cookbooks...but I will be checking them out in the near future. The cookbook you are reviewing sounds like just the book for me. It's hard for me to stand for extended periods of time at the stove cooking. I looked at and printed out the recipes you've reviewed so far. They look simple and they sound delicious.
I DO have a Gooseberry cookbook, "Homemade Harvest", and LOVE it!
I am a fan of Gooseberry Patch, who wouldn't be?
I've been a fan of yours Tina at "Mommy's Kitchen" for about a year now...always my "go to" in a time of being stuck on something new, simple and always a WINNER!

I LOVE Gooseberry Patch, years ago I contacted them to see how they started their business and they sent me a package with a ton of information! To this day, I still have it and I love to read it...it's such a wonderful story. You can't go wrong with their products or their cookbooks!
Sad to say, I don't yet own a Gooseberry Patch cookbook, but everywhere I see them, I look at them. This one would be an excellent "first"!

I don't have any Gooseberry Patch cookbooks. Until I started reading Mommy's Kitchen I had never heard of them. I guess I have been deprived!! I love cookbooks and trying new recipes and taking photos of my successful kitchen adventures.
