Little Red Hen loves Cake Wrecks, both the blog and the book. So much so that she’s written reviews of both the blog and the book right here on Five Hens. Now you can share in the laughter too with your very own copy of Jen Yates’ new book Cake Wrecks: When Professional Cakes Go Hilariously Wrong. This week, we’re giving away a copy of the book to two of our lucky readers. Entering is as easy as creating a cake wreck (well, maybe not that easy!).
And the winners are…

Win a Kids Conserve Goodie Bag
Christy Aune of Kids Konserve gave us some great tips this week on having an “Eek-o-Friendly Halloween” which included using some products from Kids Konserve. She was also kind enough to provide a Kids Konserve Goodie Bag to help you get off to a great start on an environmentally sound Halloween. The Goodie Bag includes a recycled canvas lunch sack and a 20 oz. stainless steel water bottle (combined value $21). Now that’s a great way to start doing what you can to make Halloween fun and Eek-o-Friendly!
And the winner is…
