- Take a Picture: Snap a photograph of the recipe without a human in the photo, and send it to me in an email to debi@dw2.net, letting me know the name of the recipe you made as well. Email your photo to me by 11:59PM PT on February 28th, 2026 and you’ll be entered to win. By sending a picture, you are consenting to use of the picture on Facebook, Instagram, and on my blog, I will, of course, give you credit!
- Winner: One person will randomly be selected to win and will be announced here on the blog, on Facebook and Instagram, and in email. The winner will get a $100 Amazon Gift Card. I will contact the winner directly via email. The winner will have 48 hours to respond, if no response, a new winner will be chosen. For U.S. residents only, as Amazon gift cards are region-locked.
