So it's the 1st of February and today is jam packed with things to celebrate. January is over, spring is coming, it's St. Brigid's Day, National Grandparent's Day and my blog is two months on the go!! So I thought it was high time to mark all this celebration with my first EVER competition. I am a huge fan of Lorraine Pascale's BBC Programme 'Baking Made Easy'. I love her show, her style of cooking and am always left wanting to bake after watching her. So I was very lucky when a very lovely friend, who knows me all too well, got me her cookbook at Christmas (it's not like i hinted that much!!). It's a gorgeous cookbook packed full of recipes for bread, cakes, desserts and savoury baking. I can't wait to try her 'I cant believe you made that cake' recipe it's impressive looking. I love this cookbook so much that I want to give a copy away to one of my lovely readers.
So how do I get myself into the draw for this I hear you say?? Well this is one of those super easy competitions. All you have to do is be a follower of my blog. You can do this in a number of ways:
1. Follow The Purple Page through Google

Good luck everyone!
