WBB# 5 round-up and announcement for WBB#6

September 29, 2006

Finally, I’ve managed to push myself hard enough to post the round-up of WBB#5 and reveal the new rules for the Weekend Breakfast Blogging game

Finally, I’ve managed to push myself hard enough to post the round-up of WBB#5 and reveal the new rules for the Weekend Breakfast Blogging game.

WBB turns monthly instead of fortnightly. Three main reasons –

Fortnighly was too confusing for most. Which fortnight?

Gives me more time with the round-ups

Now on, WBB will be based on themes- making it once a month, gives you more time to think of innovative stuff which others will learn from. This is mainly an idea-sharing platform. While we all have our favourites, events are a good learning experience. If you racked your brains to find out the best way to bake with whole wheat flour, then others can save time by just following your method. Get my point?

The theme for WBB# 6 is : A twist in the plate

Take any popular recipe either from a recipe book, internet recipe resource or a fellow blogger’s recipe and do your own twist on it. By twist, I mean a real good one. Not like substituting baking soda for baking powder or green chillis with red chillis. I don’t know if this is very good an example, but take it for starters: Podi Idli with Mushrooms and Onions.

I still don’t have anything in mind too. But I believe it should be fun. Your twist should have made quite a difference to the original. Common my cook sisters and brothers, put on your hats and think out of it!

You have all the freedom to steam, saute, fry or bake – so the options are pretty much endless.

The regular details:

Do write a line or so about the original recipe in your post.

Send in your entries to me at [email protected] by 29th of October (Sunday) which gives over a month’s time.

Your mail must have the URL of your blog and the permalink of the recipe.

    I agree the ‘theme’ is a good idea…will make us think. And yes, monthly event is also good…the week goes by too fast to remember to post on breaka…Already, there are some twists…Vaishali’s Polenta idlis! Look forward to new themes that you’ll think up.
