Okay, I've found a book to read to fit the final prompt for "author initials in DURIAN". I'm starting it now and should be able to finish tonight.

i'm hoping to have the book finished by the time i go to bed tonight, so in the next 3-ish hours.. but i may not be able to get the review up until the morning. depends on what time i actually finish. lol

New basket was posted! I may be able to do the prunes prompt.
Kade wrote: "New basket was posted! I may be able to do the prunes prompt."I'd say hold off. I need to go through all the banked books. Because we might be already able to fill many of these.
We'll have all the tasks filled. Now we just need to figure out what we're making and I'll shove as many banked ones in that. I'll post mine tomorrow when I'm in my meeting
Perfect. Let me know if you need any help.

Okay looks like we need to finish one task, the book that I thought we could use didn't work. So here's what we need to finish our dish:
Animal cracker: Animal in title or crackers in text
Other items:
chicken
flour
shallot or onions
lime
cilantro
rice
I went through most of my books, but there are a couple i still need to look through the ebook for ingredients. I'll post the rest of mine later when I'm at my office.
I’ll take a look I see what I could read asap that works.
I found everything so whatever you end up reading will go in basket 4. Going to post everything now.
okay so the new basket - Can i go ahead and claim prompt 2 -
2. Zucchini: Title has a double letter in it (ex: Zucchini has 2 C’s in it) OR MC eats a vegetable
I'm reading Sacrificial Sinners by J Rose in just a few minutes.
Where are we at for everything else? Is anyone else able to grab some of the other prompts?
Sorry we already have everything for the task ones. I saved them when I planning stuff yesterday.
Okay found a recipe we can make: Watermelon salad with crispy Sardines. These will be the other ingredients we need: mint, pine nuts, fetta cheese, lemon or lime juice, olive oil, breadcrumbs, eggs.
Kade wrote: "Where are we at for everything else? Is anyone else able to grab some of the other prompts?"if you have the ebooks you can search for any of the other ingredients, otherwise let me know which books of yours we haven't used and I'll make sure they get used.

Okay so all the prompts are good for this basket? Awesome!
The books I've finished this month are the following;
her three bears by b livingstone and indie black
vampire's possession by anna santos
circus save me by erin o'kane & ka knight
sunshine and the stalker - dani rene
I know we used sunshine and one other, but i don't recall which as of now. I'm finishing the following tonight;
Monster Whisperer - J.B. Trepagnier
Taming The Ringmaster - Erin O'Kane and KA Knight
if they can't fit, totally fine! just want to offer them up since they're completed. i don't recall ANY food mentioned in vampires possession though. lol.

I'll take a look at the others some time tomorrow.
So far we've used these from you: Circus save me, sunshine and the stalker, and her three bears.
Awesome! Thanks. I don’t think any types of food were mentioned in vampire’s possession so it likely won’t fit anytbing. The other two I mentioned are almost done and reviewed but if a particular good was in them, I don’t recall. Do you need help coming up with a fish that fits the last prompts?

I'll go looking through books tomorrow since I'll have most of the day off. As a backup we can switch the Anna Santos book to sardines and I can see if We all fall down has one of the words in the text.
Perfect. Let me know if I can help in any way.
Found all the words we need to complete this round. I should have my other two up today. All we'll need is Melanie's Crazy stupid sex.

The book I’m currently reading will have a few options to add in. I should be done in a hour or two. Would y’all prefer to add In caviar, “big juicy steak,” venison or oatcakes?? Lol. Those are the foods mentioned.

Okay! I’m mobile and won’t be able to access my computer for a few hours. Would someone mind adding this to the banked list for me? Here’s the revIew link. https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...

Just waiting for Melanie's review of crazy stupid sex and we'll finish this basket. I'm guessing the next basket we'll probably be our last. If we have enough stuff we can probably end with it finished.
Awesome y'all rock. Will close the basket in a hot second once i remember what the heck this dish was lmao
Added in the ingredients for the next dish. Here's the list: Olive oil, salt, black pepper, garlic, rosemary, stock, chiles, bay leaves, shallot, red pepper flakes, maple syrup, balsamic vinegar, brown sugar, mustard
I'll do the porkloin and blackberry task. But the other two are open and I don't know if any of y'alls books work for them:
Bran Flakes: Set on a farm, Cereal' in text
Beer: Beer' in text, MC works at a bar
I’ll see if any of the ones I’m currently reading or reading next will fit. You said there was an easy way to search your book for a word / food right?
Nevermind I’m an idiot and figured it out lol. I can do the Beer prompt! Run and hide has beer mentioned quite a few times in text!
Howdy, everyone. I'm sorry that I've been MIA. My father had a stroke and wasn't doing too well so my husband and I decided to move with our kids across the country at the last minute to be with my family. I have read some books but they don't meet any of the current prompts. I will list them here and you guys can tell me if they can be used or not. =)
Are all the prompts claimed for this basket?
Kade wrote: "Are all the prompts claimed for this basket?"Yes looks like we have them all covered!
