I'm tallying answers as fast as I can and will announce the winner ASAP. Thanks for all your entries. Hope you had fun!
Hey, Read-a-thon-ers! Welcome to Just One More Thing... where we like puzzles, books and food. This hour's mini-challenge combines all three. Below is a picture puzzle with portions of ten book covers. The title of each book contains a type of food (for example: If You Give a Moose a Muffin, would qualify.) How many can you name?
Leave your list of the ten foods represented in the comment section. No need to include the full book title - unless your just compulsive that way. Comments will remain hidden until the challenge closes in three hours (12:00 noon, Central Time). The winner will be randomly selected from all correct entries. Even if you don't know all ten, list as many as you can - there will be a second random drawing from all entrants.
And speaking of prizes . . . The winner will receive this prize package:
 |
| Recipe box, autographed copy of Peas, Beans and Corn by Jennifer Wixson, English Tea Murder by Leslie Meier, and The Scarlet Pepper by Dorothy St. James |
An entrant drawn at random will receive a set of recipe cards. Good Luck!

ReplyDeleteSecond here are my answers. I'm fairly certain I got 7 right and 1 is a guess.
2 others have me totally stumped
- Green eggs and ham - Dr. Seuss
- Chocolat (LOVE that movie still have yet to read the book though) - Joanne Harris
- Coffee (though I don’t know the book)
- Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society - Mary Ann Shaffer and Annie Barrows
- Cake - there’s cake there I see it and want it. The Particular Sadness of Lemon Cake (my favorite!) - Aimee Bender
- The Sweetness at the Bottom of the Pie - Allan Bradley
- The Grapes of Wrath - John Steinbeck (that one was tough but it looked so familiar so I scanned my bookshelf :))
- My guess for the blue book in the center area is Harvest Moon - but otherwise I’m blank there.
