			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>My friend Skeet issued a challenge to another blogger, Jenn, on whose grilled cheese and bacon sandwich is the best.  I had to throw in my 2 cents because I think mine is the best!  Well, now it&#8217;s a 3 way challenge and we need our readers to pick the winning grilled cheese and bacon sandwich.  We have all decided to let you all pick the best one.</p>
<p>Here are The Rules:<br />
 1. Go to each of the recipe links:</p>
<p>Jenn: <a href="http://www.jenncooks.com/2007/10/18/recipe-challenge-grilled-cheese-and-bacon-sandwich/">Recipe Challenge-Grilled Cheese and Bacon Sandwich</a></p>
<p>Charlotte: <a href="http://householdtips.armymomnj.name/2007/10/20/grilled-cheese-and-bacon-sandwich/">Grilled Cheese and Bacon Sandwich</a></p>
<p>Skeet:  <a href="http://skeetsstuff.skeeterbess.com/2007/10/11/grilled-cheese-and-bacon-sandwich-illustrated/">Grilled Cheese and Bacon Sandwich-Illustrated</a></p>
<p>2. Make the sandwiches.</p>
<p>3. Write a post about your experience and name the recipe that you think is best.</p>
<p>4. Go to all three contest announcements and give a link to your post in the comments for each one: (I&#8217;ll link the other contest posts as soon as they&#8217;re up.)</p>
<p>Jenn: <a href="http://www.jenncooks.com/2007/10/22/a-contest-and-a-challenge-win-a-cookbook/">A Contest and a Challenge &#8211; Win a Cookbook!</a></p>
<p>Charlotte: You&#8217;re reading it now.</p>
<p>Skeet: <a href="http://skeetsstuff.skeeterbess.com/2007/10/22/grilled-cheese-and-bacon-throw-down-win-a-cookbook/">Grilled Cheese and Bacon Throw Down &#8211; Win a Cookbook!</a></p>
<p>Deadline:<br />
You must complete the process by posting your comments to each of our blogs by midnight EST on Sunday, November 4th.</p>
<p>Prizes:<br />
Charlotte, Jenn and Skeet will each draw a name from among the entrants and will reward a cookbook to that lucky winner. Bonus! Want an extra entry? When you write your post, include a picture of at least one of the sandwiches you made.</p>
<p>Eligibility:<br />
The contest is open to anyone with a US or Canadian mailing address. We have nothing against the rest of you, but postage, taxes and customs requirements could turn this into a major hassle instead of a fun contest.</p>
<p>The Prize:</p>
<p><a href="/wp-content/uploads/njcookbook.jpg" rel="lightbox"  ><img src="/wp-content/uploads/.thumbs/.njcookbook.jpg" alt="Mid-Atlantic Cookbook" title="Mid-Atlantic Cookbook" class="left" width="96" height="96" hspace="7px" vspace="2px" border="0" /></a>This cookbook contains Best of the Best from the Mid-Atlantic Cookbook: Selected Recipes from the Favorite Cookbooks of Maryland, Delaware, New Jersey and Washington, D.C.  This will go to the winner.  Good luck and happy cooking!</p>
