Jaden over at at SteamyKitchen has a drawing going on where she is offering a half pound of vanilla beans to 8 lucky people who leave a link to a recipe containing vanilla on her blog. I have offered up my Crepes post and linked to the YouTube video of me making the crepes at home.

What’s that? You haven’t seen the video? Well, here you go!

I previously offered my Paella post for Jaden’s saffron giveaway. Unfortunately, my name was not chosen. Maybe this time (crossing fingers)!

Hey, this is fun. I’m not just blogging about food, I’m blogging for food as well! I should make a sign:

I found out that we were one of the people chosen to receive the vanilla beans!  I’m so tickled to have been chosen.  In future posts I hope to show Annie putting those vanilla beans to good use!
