Taste of Home magazine is looking for an official Holiday Ambassador, and we want to hear from your readers who love cooking, decorating, and entertaining, and who take celebrating the holidays to a whole new level!

The woman selected as “Mrs. Holiday” will receive $50,000 and a spokesperson role with Taste of Home.  Once crowned, Mrs. Holiday will have the opportunity to conduct interviews, participate in cooking segments and blog, as well as make appearances across the country at retailers and some of the more than 300 Taste of Home cooking schools.

Between now and September 7^th, women age 18 and older are invited to log on to Facebook.com/TasteofHome to upload a short video and signature recipe that demonstrates how they bring the holidays to life for their family and friends.  The winner will be selected from the top 100 entries that receive the most votes from the public, so every vote counts!

Mrs. Holiday candidates can submit videos for Independence Day, New Years, Valentine’s Day, St. Patrick’s Day, Easter, Mother’s Day, Father’s Day, Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Christmas. 

We’ve already had some great Independence Day-themed submissions:
