"Splendid Table" giveaway: We have a winner

Julie Ruble, who challenges bakers with her own blog, Willow Bird Baking, has won my challenge to post a convenience food shortcut for an entry into our drawing for a copy of "The Splendid Table's How to Eat Weekends," the new book by Lynne Rossetto Kasper and Sally Swift.

To pick a winner, I count the entries in the order they come in and then enter the final tally into the Random Generator at www.random.org.

Take a look at Monday's post for the new ideas people sent in. And Julie, email me at kpurvis@charlotteobserver.com with your mailing address and I'll get the book on its way. Thanks, all, for playing.
