#Giveaways
Twice throughout the party, Cooking with Caitlin will be giving away one of our signature shoppers. Every ensemble works better with one of Cooking with Caitlin’s signature shoppers. Made out of recycled billboard vinyl, each one is unique, but every single one sturdily screams “I heart Earth!” At 17 inches wide by 18 inches tall by 5 inches deep, it works for everything from library books to fresh zucchini from the local farmers’ market.

Make sure you’re in the running by following the directions below.

How #fni works:
Late Monday afternoons (4-6pm eastern to be exact) we meet through Twitter. Using the hashtag #FNI we greet each other at the virtual door, and get cozy to talk about whatever food-related topic we are featuring that day. Typically the topic will be determined by the weekly sponsor of #fni. We, at Cooking with Caitlin, compile at least ten questions that serve as the framework of the conversation over the two hours of #fni. Then, the hosts throw out each question at pre-determined times throughout #fni. We hope that YOU will join in the fun-filled-foodie conversation and share your thoughts, recipes, tips, ask questions…and most certainly make new friends! Can’t wait to *see* you there.
Thank you to our partner in #fni, @savvyhost.
