Cherish Bound Tribute to Mothers * Giveaway

by Camille on April 29, 2010

How well do you know your mother?

How well does she know you?

If you were asked these either of these questions:
“What do you love most about your mom?” OR
“Describe an experience when you realized your mom was right?”
How would you respond? Would your mom know how you would respond?

Well, now, Cherish Bound has provided a means for you to collect all of your memories and feelings of Mom and publish it into a book that she will treasure!!

The Tribute to Mom (and Dad) series includes a StoryStarter, which serves as a guide to getting you started.  Questions like the ones above are listed to get your mind thinking in the right direction. 

Once you’ve compiled your memories and thoughts, the Cherish Bound publisher program will easily help you convert those words into a beautifully bound and published book!

If you want to see tears from your mom on Mother’s Day… this is the ticket!

Because I’ve personally used Cherish Bound to publish my own books, I can speak from experience and highly endorse the quality, customer service, and user-friendliness (is that a word?) of their company!  Carol Rice is the President of Cherish Bound and is just a personable as the book you will publish!  She loves to promote the joy of telling stories – especially if it’s about our loved ones.

And, Cherish Bound is a proud sponsor of the upcoming Casual Blogger Conference, happening May 27 – 29th.

I loved it when my mom would make lasagna for my birthday. It was the only time she would include spinach- my favorite ingredient in the recipe!

That is a hard question. I am going to say it is lasagna and garlic bread that she makes every New Year’s Day.

My mom’s cooking – not so great. She raised me on a steady diet of Banquet TV Dinners. But she did make me steamed veggies in a special bowl that I still have and I miss that.

This was the message I got after my last comment:
You are posting comments too quickly. Slow down.
How lame is that?

My last comment was that I have your button. Now I’m slowing down so it will post!

Although it wasn’t so much a recipe, the meal I always looked forward to with my family as a kid was fondue. This was always a special meal and to this day I can remember this with great happiness.
