ABC: Awesome quote, Beautiful t-shirt, Cool bags

Update #3 · Oct 4, 2011 · 1 comment

Hello Kickstarters,

Guess what?!

Jamie Oliver just sent me a quote for my cookbook... I CAN'T WAIT for you to see it! (Cliffhanger...)

As promised, I have posted a new and exciting incentive. For $115, you can get a signed copy of my cookbook with a personalized message AND your choice of either an organic cotton canvas Great Food Starts Fresh farmers market shopping bag (13" x 15.5" x 7") with 3 different styles to choose from OR a Great Food Starts Fresh T-shirt with my favorite image from the cookbook on it. (Men and women's sizes available... all the cool kids are wearing them!) I have posted photos below of the bags as well as the image (artichoke triptych) that is on the front of the T-shirt (the words Great Food Starts Fresh are on the back of the T-shirt) so you can make your selection. 

19 days to go! Thanks again for helping to spread the word.

Have a delicious week,

Your chef,

Nathan
