I have a very exciting giveaway for you today, which is a copy of the children’s book, Suzie’s Sourdough Circus, written by my sister’s friend, Kathy Sager. The illustrations are by Eliska Liska, and are absolutely enchanting!
This book is seriously adorable, and is inspired by my sister Sara’s stories of baking sourdough bread with our father. (And I am loving how Suzie even has long dark braids like my little sister!)
Written in verse, it even includes recipes! Here’s a sample:
“We don’t do it alone, no not in the least.
We have sourdough starter, our own wild yeast.
They’re part of our family, alive like a pet.
Look into our crock if you haven’t seen yet.”
To enter to win this book, write your name in the comments section below. I will randomly choose a winner on Wednesday, October 12th at 9:00 P.M. Pacific Standard Time. U.S. residents only, please enter one time only.
Good luck!

Love sourdough pancakes, fond kid memories of sourdough ‘tending’ when I was a kid, my grandmother always had a jar in the fridge. (Any chance of offering some starter in the contest too?) : ) Great site, enjoying your posts so much! Therese

This looks adorable. I LOVE the illustrations. And as someone that still wears braids from time to time, I love the braids.

I’m such a chicken about trying to make bread, but I WILL try at some point in 2011 – I promised myself I would try it! Less than three months left – I better get my act together!
