Hi Everyone,

The hosts of Real Women of Philadelphia - Mandy Heaston, Caryn Ross, Sheila Cutchlow and KC Quaretti-Lee - are your guides and inspiration for each week of the recipe contest!

This official start date for the contest is this Monday, July 19th! This time, men can apply, and we want all of your original recipes - there will be daily winners of $500 each, for four months - that's right, we're giving out a total of $40,000! Each winner will also have the chance for their recipe to be included in the RWOP Community Cookbook! Of course, each recipe should include as much Philly Cream Cheese as your heart desires, and each week will include a different category and theme. So now that we've selected our amazing hosts, it's time to really get this community spirit soaring!

Please refer to the CONTEST RULES tab with any questions, and don't hesitate to contact our site admin, Jason, with any additional questions. Otherwise, you're armed and ready! We can't wait to see what you send in for Week One: Side Dish, Time Crunch!

Have a great weekend everyone and we'll see you right back here on Monday!
