The Best Of Chef At Home - Giveaway



OK, so I am totally a wannbe foodie, and hubby is taking his "wannabeness" to the next level and teaching himself to cook.  And I blame it all on Chef Michael Smith. 

If you are a Canadian, and have The Food Network included in your cable package, then you know who this tall hansom man is.  (OK, I'm allowed to crush a little right?)  He is the host of Chef At Home, and Chef Abroad. 

We have our DVR set to record both of his shows, every day.  And we watch them every day.  He has taught us a lot, about using the right flavors, spices, making sauces, and oh how I would love to have a pantry like his.  It's funny how you can learn to cook by watching a TV show daily...but our dinner menu has grown so much since we started. 

I wrote a review for his newest cookbook, The Best Of Chef At Home a few months back, you can see that here.  Understand that this book is the most widely used cookbook in my house.  Looked at daily I dare to admit.  Even my mother comes to steal a peek at it once in a while, and my favorite food to eat is her cooking. 

In Canada you can watch Chef At Home on The Food Network at 10am and 4pm est.  You can follow Chef Michael Smith on Twitter, or check out his blog http://www.chefmichaelsmith.ca

I am a huge fan of Michael Smith. He is the only chef's tv show my husband will watch with me. He is a real man. I too like what he cooks and the way he cooks. My repetoire of food is still lacking so I would love to try some of his recipes.

I *love* Chef at home.. I love his down to earth cooking without a recipe style.. it matches my cooking style very well. I have less experience in making certain things from scratch (e.g. chicken broth) so I would love this book to fill in the gaps!
