quinoa-salad-5

First of all, I want to tell you how sorry I am that I’ve taken so long to announce my POM Giveaway winners!  I really and truly intended to post this several days ago.  I’ve been pushing up against a deadline on a very special freelance writing gig and all of my time and energy this week has been devoted to that.  I really can’t tell you about it yet, but it is something that I’m very excited about!  I promise to fill you in on all of the details as soon as I find out whether my article makes the cut.

Anyway, thanks to all of you who left so many great comments about your favorite ways to use pomegranates.  I was so impressed by all of your creative ideas!  But, I’m going to cut right to the chase and announce the three winners of a case of POM Wonderful pomegranate juice and a copy of Nigella Christmas.
